Wet Hot American Summer Trailer
Set in 1981 on the last day at a Jewish summer camp, this is probably one of the most underrated hilarious comedies ever. Whether it is the hyper-sexual post traumatic stress disorder affected Vietnam vet cook, the nerdy, over confident college professor who is convinced that a meteor is headed towards the campsite, or the power hungry duo of Susie and Ben who turn the camp talent show into as big a deal as a Broadway production, this movie takes every stereotype to the extreme without being offensive. The counselors are all having sex with each other, the kids are broken up into different cliques based on their interests, and there is always that kid who doesn't see the need to shower. Every line is belly laugh funny, and should get more recognition, especially seeing as the cast is essentially perfect- Amy Poehler, Molly Shannon, Paul Rudd, Bradley Cooper (his first movie!!), Janeane Garofalo, Christopher Meloni, Elizabeth Banks...need I say more? It is completely worth watching, especially with a group of friends, and it would help if one of them actually went to a Jewish summer camp so they can sit there and tell you how accurate every aspect of the movie is.
