A slightly engaging story of a bachelor party gone awry...

"In a round about way, this would actually be an informative film for those best men out there who might be trying to plan a unique bachelor party. This story tells of an extreme example in how to prove to the groom and his friends that the wedding is meant to be.
This is a tale of four men who embark on an unlikely journey days before the wedding they will be partaking in. Their trip across the border appears to be a chain of events that includes having to jump out of a plane, stay at a drug lord's house filled with bikini clad Latin ladies, helping a depressed matador restart his career, and so on. All whilst our soon-to-be groom is tested on whether he will end up with his bride for life or maybe someone else.
There are a few laughs scattered throughout, and the improbability of the whole story becomes cleared up in the end. All of the stars are recognizable from loads of other B films and TV shows, and they bond nicely in this light romp through the Mexican countryside. The behind the scenes gives a good insight into indie filmmaking without the talking head premise.
Not great but not bad either."
