Hangover with a vengeance

Johnny (Ron Livingston) intends to organize a bachelor party for his best friend Bill (Roy Schneider),but not all his plans are honest and pure with a skeleton almost falling out of his closet. At the same time Bill's fiancée Olivia (Amanda Detmer) is having her own night on the town, during which she intends to diverge some of her secrets to Johnny's wife. Meanwhile Johnny's dad plans to kidnap and sell a young girl to a pimp, a sexy Cuban refugee and her partner want to dish out some revenge on the pimp and a transvestite prostitute wants someone to fix her plumbing. Naturally lives collide, people have sex and die, guns are galore and all in all we are supposed to be entertained by this cross-dressing pseudocomedy drama fiasco.

Thankfully almost everyone in this travesty of a movie is dead by the end of it. Because there isn't a single character in it that is likable. I wouldn't mind a movie where the characters aren't cardboard and have their dark sides. But in this movie everyone is disgusting to the point of the viewer personally wanting to whack off every single character yourself.

It tries to be a bit more intelligent at times throughout the movie and actually has a couple of good scenes with some nice dialogue. Shame it got wasting in this joke of a movie. I really would have just preferred it to be a stupid as hell slapstick comedy, but it wants more than it can chew and it chokes.

Acting is decent, but its just the structure of this wannabee story that kills any positives scattered sparcely around the flick. Do not bother.

I shouldn't have wasted my time on this one.

Despite the attracting cast which had a quite good reputation as comedians the movie itself is just not good. The story is kinda boring, they clearly didn't think too far to write this comedy. But since it's a comedy I expected some laughs and to be honest I didn't laugh once, and there is nothing wrong with my sense of humor so that can't be it. I should have read the reviews before watching American Crude or at least looked at the ratings as for once the ratings are totally justified.

Hooker, Nudity, Sex With Multiple Partners, Lesbianism, Hermaphrodite, Pot Smoking, Coke, Electrocution, Pedophile, and Killings !

..These are some of the movie's plot keys. Yes, you read it right; "some"!

Was Craig Sheffer, the actor and the movie's director, trying to make a crime movie? Was he trying to make a satire about the "night" of America then thought of presenting it in a comic style? Was he trying to make a black comedy? Was he - oh god - thinking that it's a comedy from the start? Whatever the answer is, that guy made an ugly, disturbing and disturbed movie.

Originally many problems in one night could produce a fine comedy, black or else. But many problems in one movie could produce just a bad movie. It is made in such a poor, primitive and messy way. The script thinks itself a genius, while mixing the genres together, in one night, with many storylines, and absurd spirit. But it lost being anything good or bearable. What it did win though was having a one of a kind silly sense of humor; and it's very natural since it's directed by Sheffer; one of the silliest actors alive!

I bet that none of the movie's cast knew what the main goal was. I guess Sheffer told them that he wanted to make a satiric cross between Pulp Fiction and American Pie. So sometimes it's about bloody crimes, then it's about crude comedy, then it's about both, then it's about the ugliness of America, then it's about just ugliness!

It's "let's put some of the dirtiest matters on screen for the sake of making a satire". It turned into a great satire towards stupid movie-making mainly. Here's a movie that feeds itself, and us, with massive amount of dirt, a monster of a comedy, and low movie-making to torture everyone who sat to complete it. Thus putting the American flag at the top of the movie's presented crimes wasn't something serious about "only in America"; it was rather a try to sell the movie's own crimes as something serious!

Anyway, don't be confused, asking was it a comedy? A satire? A black comedy? A crime movie? A soft porn?? Because, in fact, it is confused. It tried to say that America has become a big toilet, but ended up as a big toilet itself. Thus I won't say "give it a chance and think about it", instead I'll say "don't forget to flush"!

(American Crude) is a dictionary of dirtiness and bad movie-making. It's nasty matters shown in nasty way.
