Beerfest ★★ 2006 (R)

It's from those Broken Lizard boys, so don't go looking for sophistication. American brothers Todd and Jan Wolfhouse travel to Germany's Oktoberfest and stumble across a secret, longstanding beer competition. They also meet the arrogant German branch of the family who humiliate the brothers when they attempt to enter the contest and stand up for American males' ability to drink themselves stupid. “Strange Brew” meets “Fight Club” as this raucous comedy will probably become an instructional video to aspiring frat boys everywhere. 111m/C DVD .
