Review
In Atlanta the uptight architect Peter Highman (Robert Downey Jr.) is ready to go to the airport to fly in the firstclass to meet his wife that has a Caesarean section scheduled in Los Angeles for the birth of their first son in five days. However he stumbles with the clumsy pothead and aspirant actor Ethan Tremblay (Zach Galifianakis) that provokes an incident in the cabin and they are expelled from the plane and Peter is included in the "nofly" list. Further without his wallet with documents credit card and money and luggage that remained in the plane and are delivered in LA. Peter is forced to accept the lift of Ethan that has attended the funeral service of his father and intend to drop his ashes in the Grand Canyon. Peter has a painful journey with many incidents and accidents and changes his behavior.
ȭue Date" is a disappointing and uneven comedy that is more silly and stupid than funny. The plot uses a similar storyline of ȭinner for the Schmucks" with a straight man that meets a schmuck and is forced to stay with him to achieve a goal. I had great expectation that ȭue Date" would be a great film but the situations that are supposed to be funny never work and I laughed only in a couple of scenes. My vote is five.
Title (Brazil) "Um Parto de Viagem" (Ȫ Delivery Trip")
