Eurotrip views the Old World as a goofy parade of soccer hooligans, horny camera saleswomen, and pawing lechers reeking of cologne. After being dumped by his girlfriend, Scotty (Scott Mechlowicz) discovers that the German e-mail correspondent he thought was a guy is actually a hot girl--so naturally he jets off to Europe to find her, joined by his friends Cooper (Jacob Pitts), Jamie (Travis Wester), and Jenny (Michelle Trachtenburg, trying to leap into sexier roles after her adolescent characters in Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Harriet the Spy). Just as naturally, a cavalcade of national stereotypes, wacky mishaps, and mild homophobia follows, but it's all tossed off with reasonable good cheer (and the fight with the robot mime is pretty funny). Featuring cameos by Matt Damon (The Bourne Identity), Jeffrey Tambor (Arrested Development), Kristin Kreuk (Smallville), Lucy Lawless (Xena: Warrior Princess), and Vinnie Jones (Snatch). --Bret Fetzer

4.0 out of 5 stars high energy laugh fest, October 17, 2004

By	Roland E. Zwick (Valencia, Ca USA) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

"Eurotrip" is a cheeky little sex farce that is far more endearing and amusing than it has any real right to be. Think of this as basically "International Pie," with four high school grads spending their final summer before college on a wild sex-capade through Europe.

Writers Alec Berg, David Mandel and Jeff Schaffer have penned a surprisingly clever screenplay, filled with ribald humor and irreverent, keen-eyed satire. As director, Shaffer keeps the energy level high and the tone so innocently upbeat that material that could easily have become sleazy and smarmy in less gifted hands becomes genuinely hilarious and utterly good-natured in his. Even when a particular scene or joke falls flat, there is always a clever zinger or ingenious comic concept coming right along behind it to keep the film moving steadily along on the right track. And some of the scenes are very funny indeed, with the film, as a whole, providing more hearty belly laughs than almost any comedy in recent memory. Those easily offended by nudity and a casual attitude towards sex may want to take a pass on this film, but the rest of us will find much to laugh at in this broad little romp.

As the New World quartet suddenly let loose on the unsuspecting Old World, Scott Mechlowicz, Jacob Pitts, Michelle Trachtenberg and Travis Wester deliver performances filled with unflagging energy and youthful high spirits. The fun these actors obviously had making the film is visible up there on the screen for all to see, making "Eurotrip," for all its potential crassness, a surprisingly upbeat movie experience.

One could easily damn "Eurotrip" with faint praise by calling it a "guilty pleasure." But that would be demeaning the people who put this very fun movie together. "Eurotrip" is a high-energy, thoroughly entertaining comedy in its own right, one that needs no backhanded compliments or half-hearted apologies to detract from its very genuine virtues.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent DVD, July 23, 2004

By	Thomas B. Gross (Winchester, MA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This unrated version of the movie contains excellent bonus material on DVD including an extensive director's commentary, deleted scenes, and a menu choice to view the nude scenes of the movie only. The movie is justly famous for the precision and clarity with which female breasts are photographed. According to the director's commentary, this unrated edition differs from the theatrical release in at least the graduation party hot-tub scene, where evidently in the theater the actress was not topless when Cooper jumps in the tub.

True to its genre as an example of kind of Jugendfahrenheitverbildungsroman, the film offers excellent glimples into middle americans attitudes towards europeans: England is exemplified by soccer hooligans and Paris is typified by a robot street performer. Only the introduction of a gay Italian seems to cut against accepted archtypes.

5.0 out of 5 stars For the laughs, April 25, 2004

By	Jaime R Adame (Army (Iraq)) - See all my reviews

If you're going to buy this dvd, make sure you buy it for the laughs and you wont be dissapointed. In the tradition of OldSchool, Eurotrip goes all out in a wild story of true friendship as a group of american teens help their friend find his true love. Tour Europe with this crazy quartet as they go from one impossible misadventure to another. Nudity, sex, and just plain wierd circumstance are bound to entertain you.
