Sorry, this movie sucks

Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.

Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

Blistering performances.

There are some great sex comedies out there but this sure as hell isn't one of them. This is a mean-spirited, unpalatable, grotesque and deeply unfunny movie.Normally I am happy to spend 90 minutes or so in the company of Chris Klein. I recently enjoyed seeing him in "Just Friends". What was he thinking when he saw the script to this stinker? The plot mainly deals with the two protagonists' efforts to find sex over the eponymous long weekend. Not a great premise for a movie, admittedly, but in the right hands it might have been fun.Not in these hands though. The jokes, if that is what they are supposed to have been, are either idiotic, unhealthily misogynistic or utterly revolting. The action is interspersed with a variety of truly repulsive video clips (which have some vague relevance to the plot), mainly of animals eating their own crap and the like.It's rare that I actually give up on a movie, but after 45 minutes or so I had to rip that sucker out of my DVD player as it was turning my stomach. There are doubtless some morons out there who'll enjoy wallowing in the unbelievable crassness that is The Long Weekend, but I would advise most of us to avoid avoid a-void this one.

having nothing to do on a Friday night and all of a sudden remembered of the thought of mine to watch long weekend as it looked funny(the cover at the video store). the plot was fine and the flow was natural. from the beginning it looked like a new line story for the funny home tapes. bet the producer went thru all the funny and nasty videos they could find. at last a sexy comedy NOT from high school. the actors was fine and Cobie Smulders was great on her little part.now the bad parts of the story, they didn't really show coops early life nor his career in that one year, and funny how much he got from the modeling to afford stuffs he use and spend. well thats not the major thing about a comedy and over all it was great. i wonder why it is still below 5?

I saw this at the 2006 Palm Springs International Film Festival. I don't know how they let this sneak into the festival but it somehow got accepted and was one of the weekend late night screenings. I normally would have passed on a film like this but it was a late night showing and I like going to the late night screenings so what the heck. Barely had the opening credits ended and people were already walking out on it. I thought, wow, if people think this is so distasteful that they are were walking out already I need to see this through. This was actually a nice relief from a lot of the heavy and somber art films I had been seeing. This is a movie not a film. It's tasteless, crass, sophomoric and relies on bathroom humor and sex jokes. And it's pretty funny too. This is so intentionally over the top that it's quite fun. Cooper and Ed are both funny and charming. The characters they meet throughout the film, people who are on screen for just a minute or so, are more interesting and have more character development than many characters in sophisticated serious movies. I definitely wouldn't recommend this to just anyone but I wouldn't mind seeing it again. I'd give this a 7.0 out of a possible 10.

While the main drawing card of this movie seems to be the assortment of raunchy sex gags and I'll admit they do make you laugh (I actually laughed so hard at one point I spit out a mouth full of pop). But what really helps this movie is the likability and earnestness of the two guys. You can't help but sympathize with Ed and everyone's has a friend who is something like the Cooper character. The plot mainly deals with Cooper and Ed's "quest" for sex over one long weekend. That is all it is, and all it was ever billed to be. And it goes over great. I admit, I was not too excited about it at first but now I am glad I saw it. If you don't like raunchy stories who flaunt sex jokes shamelessly, and if you didn't like Porky's or Fast Times at Ridgemont High, or American Pie don't go see it. Otherwise, go see it and laugh your *ss off. Any guy will appreciate The Long Weekend full tilt, and girls will realize just what hoops guys jump through in order to get their attention, let alone in their pants. What added to The Long Weekend is that I liked both the characters. I didn't know Chris Klein could act until I saw this film, this is the first time he's stepped out of his usual character and I have to say he steals the show. I was glad that they didn't make them the stereotype one nice one sleazy Ed ain't perfect and Cooper isn't all bad. The brothers have some genuine moments on the screen which adds to the film as a whole. Dude, go see this if you want to laugh...I saw this in Europe when is it coming out in the States?!!
