Eurotrip may have been panned by critics, but most of my millennial friends hold it up as a classic raunch-com. It is truly hilarious. And you can't help but walk away from watching it while singing "Scotty doesn't know..."

First of all: Greetings from a guy living somewhere in between the Brussels sprouts, hahahaha. That's right, I'm from Belgium, you know the place that no-one really knows, not even the Europeans...

Even though I expected to really hate this movie, I have to admit that I had a lot of fun watching it. I loved to see how they magnified the stereotypes about the French, the English, The Germans,... and made fun about the Catholic church. Some people pointed out that it was clear that the makers really don't know anything about the countries they were making jokes about. Possible, but it didn't bother me once. It's a comedy, not a traveler's guide!

This is how the story goes: A teenager is dumped by his girlfriend on the day of their graduation. He has contact with a German girl, called Mieke, but he thought it was a guy called Mike. Knowing this and after he has seen her photo, he decides to pay her a visit in Berlin. But of course they don't just end up in Berlin. They start their trip in London, going to Paris, Amsterdam and Bratislava before getting to Berlin...

The movie's script or the plot were probably the least of the director's concerns. It's clear that they just wanted to go to Europe, have some fun and film one hilarious situation after the other. I've got the feeling that most of the European viewers didn't mind being the subject of the movie. Yes it's crude and yes it doesn't show anything about how Europe really is, but it's also incredibly funny. I give it an 8/10 for that.

This movie is hilarious & a must see for those who like American Pie, Scary Movie, Senseless & similar types of comedies. Eurotrip uses almost every single cliché or stereotype regarding Europe & exaggerates it enormously in an unbelievably funny way.

Surprisingly the acting, which is done mainly by unknown actors & actresses, is very good. As for Michelle Trachtenberg, she is just plain awesome. Her acting deserves real praise. Plus, the film features several pretty successful cameo appearances. Lucy Lawless as S&M dominatrix is particularly hilarious.

Though the story itself can't be considered particularly original, the movie is interesting, cause of unstoppable flow of hilarious jokes. The theater was almost torn down with the viewers' laughter, when I watched the film. The scene with The Pope is an instant classic in my point of view, I haven't seen something this hilarious since the first Scary Movie came out. Some satirical aspects also take place in the movie: especially funny was the scene, when the characters arrive to a club in Slovakia & hear a techno remix of a song 'Scotty Doesn't Know'. Awesome moment.

In general, I think the film is underrated. In my opinion it is better than the first & the second American Pie, the second Scary Movie & a great number of less famous comedies. Go see it & have fun.

Comedies like this is hard to rate. It's a bad movie, technically, acting-wise and in many other aspects. But it's funny, no denying that. After all, isn't that what comedies are about?

You would think a comedy like this would appeal only to Americans, but you are wrong. I know Germans, Aussies, Swedes and Hollanders who like this movie. I'm sure there are Brits, Italians, Eastern Europeans and Balkans who like it as well. You have to be able to laugh at yourself.

What the movie is about is a bunch of typical teens going for a little quest through Europe in search of the dream girl. Nothing new here. The misadventures on the way, the xenophobic jokes and stereotypes and odd characters are what you laugh at. Vinnie Jones as a crazy ManU supporter, Rade Serbedzija as a Bratislavian truck driver, and many other not that well- known actors doing silly and memorable roles.

Some scenes work, some don't. Some are really funny, like the robot battle outside the Louvren, and the Italian pervert smoking a post-sex cigarette. Matt Damon turns up somewhat unexpectedly in the USA and sings the catchy "Scotty doesn't know" song.

All in all, this is a great comedy to watch with your friends, and even better in international company.

Okay, I admit it. Sometimes I enjoy dumb comedies, like "Police Academy" or "Joe's Apartment". And this is nothing if not a dumb comedy.

This type of film--the teen sex comedy--is precisely the sort of movie professional critics love to hate, instead recommending that we see artsy, coma-inducing independent, documentary and/or foreign-language films. But let's face it: "Animal House" was better than "Eraserhead". "Fast Times at Ridgemont High" was better than "Babette's Feast". "American Pie" was better than "The Crying Game". And "Eurotrip" is better than "Capturing the Friedmans".

Now, since my favorite movies include "The Godfather", "Citizen Kane" and "Vertigo", you may ask why I liked this picture. Is it well-acted? No. Isn't the script stupid? And how. Is there any socially redeeming value? I couldn't find any. Isn't it xenophobic? Uh-huh. Doesn't it portray women as merely sex objects? Yep. Isn't it awfully crude? Yewbetcha. But what makes this film worth watching is quite simple: It's funny.

Granted, there's no greatness here. You will not see anyone as funny or talented as John Belushi, Bill Murray, Sean Penn, Cameron Diaz, Eugene Levy or Will Ferrell here. The only cast members with any real acting or comedic mettle are Matt Damon and Fred Armissen, who only make brief cameos. On the other hand, you won't see anyone as gut-wrenchingly awful as Chevy Chase, Rodney Dangerfield, Tom Cruise, Ben Stiller, Tom Green, Seann William Scott, or Ashton Kutcher.

There's not much plot to speak of. A nice guy (Scott Mechlowicz) who has just graduated high school goes on a trip to Europe to find the girl of his dreams, a Berliner named Mieke (Jessica Boehrs) and takes along his three best friends: a lazy ne'er-do-well looking for kinky sex like in European erotica (Jason Pitts), a girl looking for romance like in European novels (Michelle Trachtenberg) & a nerd looking for museums like in European travel brochures (Travis Wester). Along the way they run into all the various European stereotypes: thuggish Brits, pretentious French, perverted Italians, desperately poor Eastern Europeans, etc.

Yet as crude and xenophobic as this movie can sometimes be, it is never anything but good-natured. I never got the sense that the filmmakers displayed any ill will towards the peoples they were lampooning. And I must say, for as much sex and nudity as there is in this movie (and there's a whole lot of it), the biggest laugh I got was a PG-rated battle of the robot mimes in Paris, which may be the only scene in the movie that can be shown un-edited on TV.

Although this may not be great art, or even great comedy, "Eurotrip" is a terribly crude, but awfully funny movie. 7 out of 10.

Every now and then comes a teen-comedy in which the plot and plot twists are so predictable that they drag the whole movie down. This is not one of those, because while Eurotrip is certainly cliché, it is simultaneously hilarious and well worth the watch. The film has some very cheesy moments and within the first ten minutes you will probably be able to guess who ends up with whom in the end and which character goes through the biggest development.

However, none of this matters because sometimes comes a joke in Eurotrip that is just so funny it takes your breath away. This is stuff like a creepy Italian man on the train with the American teens as they travel through Europe, and all of his lewd passes as the train enters a tunnel. Or, the fact that two of the Americans--the two twins--get so wasted that they make out with each other. Or Vinnie Jones as a Mancunian football hooligan. And lastly, we have a Matt Damon who shaved his head to sing in a band specifically for this film. If stuff like that doesn't promise an awesome movie, nothing does. 7/10

Most negative reviews seem to miss the point that the movie is not making stereotypes of European countries and cultures. It is making fun of American stereotypes of those cultures. While most comedies start funny and at some point get serious with a need for a plot that loses all the humor, EuroTrip keeps building momentum throughout. Watch it, and then watch it again.

First off this movie is definitely not for families. There are some scenes that some might not like or depending may find offensive but I found this movie funny, even today it still makes me laugh.

It's no academy award winner but no one is asking it to be. It's a funny, at times raunchy comedy that knows what it is and delivers that comic escape from a world that lately has gone insane quite well.

The movie that made me laugh sooo many times. It is just ICONIC. I don't get the 6.6,taught it should be rated better. It is little bit about stereotypes so I guess People are maybe little bit mad about it but hey,I'm ftom Europe and I loved the movie!

Eurotrip is a free wheeling loose comedy with shades of American Pie and Road Trip to keep horny teenagers happy.

Scott (Scott Mechlowitz) is dumped by his girlfriend on his graduation day who has been cheating on him with a singer in rock band (cameo by Matt Damon). Scott has been in online contact with a German girl named Mieke but he believes is a guy called Mike and dumps her.

After he sees her photo he decides to pay her a visit in Berlin. He takes his friend Cooper (Jacob Pitts) and is later joined by twins Jamie (Travis Wester) and Jenny (Michelle Trachtenberg). Of course they never get to Berlin first, in order to save costs and mistakenly thinking Europe is small they start their trip in London, going to Paris, Amsterdam and Bratislava before ending up in Berlin.

As they travel to Europe they meet football hooligans, end up in a brothel, go to a nude beach, end up taking dodgy brownies in an Amsterdam café and meet some strange people especially a weirdo on a train.

It is crude humour with plenty of strong language with male and female nudity. It also has charm and fun by the cartload with few star cameos such as Lucy Lawless, Joanna Lumley and Matt Damon popping up.

I know, I know, the trailer looks supremely dumb, so why go see this movie? Certainly not because it was from the people who gave us such gems as Road Trip or Old School, that's for sure, and it's not like I even recognized anyone in the cast (other than Michelle Trachtenberg, best known as Buffy's little sister Dawn). I guess I went because I found the trailer mildly amusing and I still had $9 on an AMC gift card that I had been given for Christmas. I've seen movies with less provocation, I suppose.

Eurotrip follows the adventures of four teens, Scott (Scott Mechlowitz), Cooper (Jacob Pitts), and twins Jamie (Travis Wester) and Jenny (Trachtenberg) as they backpack around Europe between high school graduation and beginning college. There's sort of a plot driving the film as Scott wants to meet up with his e-mail pen pal Mieke (Jessica Boehrs), whom he thought was male but finds out is actually a very attractive female. But really the movie is an excuse to have fun with typical American Euro-stereotypes.

Naturally the four fresh-faced kids get into all sorts of hijinks as they make their way through London, Paris, Berlin, Rome, and so on. And the foursome are your basic group: Scott is the well-meaning lead, Cooper the sarcastic wise-ass, Jamie the uptight planner and Jenny - well, my first indication that this wouldn't be a typical dumb teen comedy was when the other three guys all treat Jenny as one of the guys, and of course she's uber-cute Trachtenberg. They repeatedly refuse to think of her as a girl despite the filmmakers really showing off Trachtenberg's budding assets, which continues to play as funny through most of the film.

It may sound hard to believe, but I don't think I have ever laughed as hard or as long at another film as I did at this one. Maybe it's because my expectations were pretty low, but this was a hysterically funny film. From the opening moments where Scott is dumped by slutty girlfriend Fiona (Smallville's Kristin Kreuk, in a terrific cameo) to the very end of the film, I pretty much laughed the entire 90 minutes. Not only is there clever verbal play and uproarious sight gags (the arrival at Bratislava was so funny I almost fell out of my seat laughing), but the writers were masters of the recurring gag - the best of which is a song about Scott's breakup with Fiona (it makes sense in the film) constantly popping up as they travel throughout Europe. One particular scene involving English soccer hooligans traveling to France (led by the smashing Vinnie Jones) had me laughing so hard I had tears rolling down my face.

Everyone gives a game performance. Scott Mechlowitz is perfect as Scott, with just the right mix of leading man humor and straight guy stiffness. Jacob Pitts' Cooper is surprisingly low key for the smart-ass; usually this kind of character is way over the top, but Cooper manages to be funny without ever taking it too far. Travis Webster plays his nerdly Jamie well; we never look down on the guy, even though he's the more uptight one in the group. And Trachtenberg seems right at home being one of the guys even while attempting to transform herself into an object of teenage lust. The cameos - Matt Damon as a punk singer, Lucy Lawless as a Dominatrix, Kreuk, and so on - are all well cast and well used. You'll recognize a lot of the bit players from other places (Guy Ritchie films, SNL, etc) but they all work very well.

I didn't expect this film to be so repeatedly and exceptionally funny, and I guess it caught me off guard. I can't recall laughing this hard at any film in the last five years, and maybe ever. I hesitate to call it the funniest movie I've ever seen, because I've seen some great comedies, but I was still chuckling at this film more than a half hour after I was out of the theater. As far as movies performing above expectations this is one of the tops in that category. I guess some people would be put off by the European stereotypes, but the film was so inventively humorous and excessively clever

(they do a great parody of the Indiana Jones 'moving around the map' bit) that I was blown away. This is a movie I fully intend to see again, maybe a few times, and I'm already clearing off space for it on the DVD shelf. But don't take my word for it - go see it yourself and see one of the funniest movies in years.

I finally saw this move fourteen years after it's release. I'm beyond college age (very) and I laughed at this movie. This is one to just sit back, turn off your critical brain and enjoy the humor. It's stupid but funny, crude but clever. Once they started playing the song at the graduation party, I knew I would finish watching until the credits. It's simple entertainment - give it a try.

Cliché, stereotypes, offensive humor, failed tries on parody, simple disgusting... Kind of strange humor when parodying European towns and people, especially Bratislava? Perhaps "Falling Down" with Michael Douglas brings a "true picture" of the New York city, but it's much better in drift and action then this disposable piece...

Very poor action, the jokes are often over the top, shows Europe as a land of sex, lascivious and larcenous indulgence. They say, the most worth watching might be nude beach exposed scenes, and other parts cut from original copy, could be found in DVD extra section...

For so many years I've been thinking, WHY did they have to travel to Europe to meet Mika in person?

Mika blocked Scotty's email address, but he could've just made a new one, email her back and apologize. The end, movie would've been over in 15 minutes LMAO.

Anyways, back then I was in high school when I started watching this and I wanted to try to live like them, so I traveled to Europe to "have fun" during my university years, however, I was hit with a harsh reality that nobody wants to be with a broke male college student, so I ended up just disappointed. Might sue the movie producers later idk.

EuroTrip is a cute comedy. It has its moments of fun, mostly related to sex. The plot is interesting and addictive. The actors are good: the best is Jacob Bitts and was good even the appearance of Matt Damon. The characters are for me well researched and well written, what interested me most was Jamie with a good performance by his actor Travis Wester. Scott, Cooper and Jenny are also interesting and I enjoyed their 3 different personalities. The direction and the photography are good. I liked the setting and the way travel is explained. The costumes are good and the sound is good too. The scene I liked the most and enjoyed the most was the one on the train with the very strange Spanish man. One part that interested me was in the pub with Manchester United fans, hilarious. The rhythm is good and in fact the duration runs quite smooth without too many swings between boredom and attention. I have nothing to say except that Eurotrip is an interesting comedy and that if you want to laugh and see something not too heavy, well, it's the right movie.

. Rating: 6.8/10.

First things first: do watch the "unrated" cut if you want to watch this at all. And there are reasons to watch this. The really enthusiastic cast to name but one ... and the silly yet engaging dialog. The interesting thing is that even if you only watch the normal cut, in the end credits they do show outtakes ... which include material from the unrated cut ... and therefor make this kind of pointless ... but whatever makes the MPAA happy I reckon.

Having said all that, you also have to cut the movie some slack ... a lot actually. Because this has quite the backwards way of thinking on a couple of things. Calling certain things cliches would be an understatement ... a big one! But again it has charme and if you are not easily offended, you may be able to enjoy this and the shenanigans it throws at you - pun intended

Prior to watching this movie for the first time, my friends would not stop quoting this movie and telling me how great it was. Now that I've seen it I can see why they love it so much. I will admit that this film is extremely raunchy and even shows some images I didn't think were allowed in R-rated movies. Never-the-less the jokes are hilarious and the plot flows rather smoothly.

Some people probably hate this movie because of the way it portrays Europeans. To them I say LIGHTEN UP! It's a movie that's meant to be stereotypical. They stereotype with taste, however, using many of the common views and prejudices that the average American feels towards the inhabitants of the various countries.

All in all, the cast was well selected, the music was awesome, the situations were entertaining, and the locations were great. I highly suggest this movie to people that love to laugh an don't get easily offended.

I saw this film on opening night in the new theater here in town. Though there weren't many people at the showing, the folks that were there constantly had things to laugh at. If there were an Oscars for single scenes the robot dance/fight scene would take the prize in the comedy category hands down. There were many other laugh out loud scenes in movie, including English soccer hooligans, a strange Italian train passenger, and some papal city shenanigans that were very funny. Over all I gave this film a rating of a 6.5/10, which I rounded to a 7 because it made me laugh.

Funny stuff. I like the bit on the train. Mi Scuzi. Lol

This is a teen Romance-sex comedy that is surprisingly good fun and has held up over twenty years since its release. The basic plot, in this "stand alone" sequel to Road Trip is that the kids graduate college and are looking to memorialize their summer before college. The main character decides to go to Germany, on a whim, to meet his beautiful German penpal. There are numbers of outrageous, and not believable adventures as they trek across Europe. These are stupid, but laughable. There are numerous cameos, including Fred Armison, Rob Schneider, and Matt Damon. The cast is good. Not hilarious, but funny.

Words fail me. If this is supposed to indicate how typical Americans see Europe, and maybe vice-versa, then god help us all. What's sad is that a great many Americans really don't know any different, so they think this film is hilarious. Amazingly, some Europeans seem to have found it amusing also.

The rules have changed; penises can now be shown on-screen. Oh, goody, let's show hundreds of them. While we're at it, we'll dig out the encyclopedia of cliché and use every one of them at least once. We'll make all Europeans look like dolts and we'll put on a wild, sumptuous party for $US1.87. Anybody who's tried to find anything in Europe that only costs $1 can tell you how accurate that is. And how about selling an obsolete Leica rangefinder camera for enough to buy 4 air tickets back home. Wow. Then we'll polish it off by tastelessly ridiculing the catholic church and we'll have a guaranteed box-office smash.

I don't think so. I'm afraid this is one of the worst movies I've seen for quite some time. Not even so bad it's good, just so bad.

Unlike the typical movie goer, reviewers are acutely aware that films WHICH MAY SEEM UNREMARKABLE at the time of release can improve, like wine, with age.

This film is possibly the best teen comedy of the era.

That the cast is likable and works well together is a given.

What makes Eurotrip stand out are "set pieces" which stick in your mind decades later.

In my case, the ringing of the bell in the Vatican followed by the "white smoke" routine is unforgettable. But there are other gems here too.

Highly recommended.

Painful 6 to give because it fits a lot of criteria for cheesy 2000s movies I love, but I feel like it had more potential than what was delivered. Definitely some hilarious laugh out loud moments, but the overall humor just didn't land with me personally.

Something about this movie reminds me of master of disguise with how corny it is, which I love that movie despite it being one of the worst rated movies I can think of. So this all comes down to opinion.

The Scotty doesn't know song is epic and catchy, having Matt Damon sing it in the movie was really funny. The scenery throughout Europe makes it a unique movie in this aspect because most raunchy teen 2000s comedies like this are all in America. I appreciate how they pushed the envelope with nudity and such, though it didn't add much to the movie. The acting and casting was very good.

I just feel like the dialogue/writing was geared towards a certain type of person and humor that is not me, unfortunately. Totally understand that some people love it though. It's worth the watch overall. Just felt like the movie was trying to be several different things at once but doing most of them at just a mediocre level.
