First let me just say --- I haven't seen the Orion Picture's logo since RoboCop in 1987. That would be 29 years ago and they haven't invest a dollar to update it.

This movie starts slow. The main character, David, looks kinda like he is related to Bradley Cooper (the actor in Clint Eastwood's American Sniper). The German, Flula, is charming at first, but gets annoying really quickly (and he drives the ultimate loser mobile - a Smart For Two). Plenty of slow shots of the great outdoor follow - almost like the filmmaker bought a drone first and then wrote a script to maximize the use of their favorite new toy.

At 5:00 the two main characters are downing entire bottles of Rose.

19:00 they down sandwiches and trail mix - which they apparently earned because of the extensive hike they are on. Flula doesn't finish his sandwich because he says he likes fast lunches - which is terrible advice because eating quickly decreases satiety which contributes to over eating and weight gain.

30:00 - Flula swims in a lake or river with ducks - Don't ever do that - lakes and rivers are infested with parasites that can enter your body and cause serious (sometimes permanent) harm.

37:00 - David and Flula down a bottle of champagne presumably with a bag of trail mix. Plot inconsistency - at first they have one bottle of champagne, but when the first bottle runs dry they hit up another one!

47:00 - They run into another group and around the camp fire they create their own "backpacking beer"
by combining carbonated water and a spoon of concentrated 70% alcohol.

58:00 - David drinks the entire bottle of concentrated alcohol without diluting it.

It started slow and never picked up the pace. Probably one of the most forgettable movies I have seen in awhile.… Expand
