Editorial Review:
IT'S A CRASH COURSE IN FOREIGN RELATIONS AS COLLEGE-BOUND SCOTTY THOMAS & HIS BUDDIES HEAD TO EUROPE FOR THE ULTIMATE SUMMER VACATION PARTY! THEY'RE HOOKING UP WITH HOT STRANGERS & JAMMING ALL THE EXTREME INSANITY THEY CAN INTO THE WILDEST TRIP OF THEIR LIVES!
Description of Eurotrip (Full Screen Edition):
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

2009-05-27 - My movie came in perfect condition, and was as funny as I remembered it was! The entire film is full of absurd humor; it is by far one of my favorite movies ever made.
It's no award-winner, but it's quotable and laughable over and over again!
2009-03-22 - Short and sweet...the movie wasn't made to win any awards. But if you're looking for a "no-brainer" with some great "one-liners" and a few cheap, dirty laughs, then this movie is one to watch over and over again. At the very least, you got to love the fact "Scotty Doesn't Know" is played throughout the entire movie!
Great movie
2009-03-02 - Saw it on TV a had to get a copy. I am actually from Bratislava, and this movie gave me an idea for a tourist T-shirt: "I SURVIVED BRATISLAVA. IN WINTER!" or something like that :-)
Absolutely funny!
2009-02-25 - his movie is hilarious it is the VERY FEW movies me and my boyfriend can agree on watching together. Bought the DVD from amazon and we watch it over and over.
Could have been worse, could have been better 
2009-02-02 - I think the endearing quality story line in this film is great to see. Far many other movies dont go sappy at all, while this does tend to do so a bit much, there is nothing wrong with that. What is wrong with going sappy? You either enjoy romantic story lines or you dont believe in romance. Romance has died among most contemporary films. Contemporary story lines have become more cliche though as they are now the norm. They often ignore the basis of desire for another person or longing which is not an outdated concept. On the other hand I did find a stereotype Euro experience placed in this film that stripped a layer of realistic understanding. It made fun of the expectations that many uninformed Americans might have, just as many outsiders of the globe might have on the U.S. Yes those misunderstandings of us exist as well.
All in all would I consider this movie horrible? no. Would I have bought it if it didnt come in a combo with another movie I did want? no. Understanding that a movie of this sort isnt being built on realistic expectations and is only after a laugh, then it more than lives up to expecations. It could have gone into many horrible cliches of stereotypes but it did manage to put a new spin on them. I say it is a reasonably enjoyable film. A truly groundbreaking film only comes along once in a great while and even then if you break them down, they still are just another retold story. What matters is if they do it in a manner that affects you. As far as movies aimed solely at guys, it will fail to impress with the movies packaging. Guys wouldnt care to see what they can see any day in the mirror but then again I guess, it does thing outside the box so you dont know what to expect. It would have been better with the full release of more female bodies though in the face of what was shown. I do though think that is a joke on us so then again the comedy works.
