Strange Brew (1983) (BD)

One of my personal favorite movies.
Use to watch this one a lot with my dad. He introduced this film to me at a young age and I became obsessed with it. It is dumb film, but it truly shine because of Rick and Dave characters. So many good laugh out load moments in this. I love to share this movie with people that are Rick Moranis fans.

Not for Hosers
I found a mouse in a bottle of beer. I took it back and they didn't give me free beer, but they gave me this movie. This film, I assume is protected in the Library of Congress for future generations to enjoy. It is an epic tale of good and evil. The classic Hero's Journey except the hero is two heroes, and they're drunk and they totally want to go on their journey because it is to a brewery. As a bonus, you also get the Canadian avant garde film "The Mutants of 2051 AD". Sit back with a pack of 2-4 and some back bacon and enjoy this modern classic. I gotta go now. I gotta pee so bad I can taste it! TAKE OFF!

Greatest Canadian movie ever made
I feel like this is in the category of a neglected classic, if someone with power is paying attention this deserves a rescan and new blu-ray.I'll admit I was a little nervous getting this DVD, I loved this movie as a kid, and I was afraid it wouldn't hold up. To my complete surprise, I loved it as much or more than the first time I saw it.Okay, full disclosure, it has a lot of little boy humor in it, fart jokes, etc. My favorite parts are still the scenes with Hosehead the magic dog, and the first scene in which he appears he growls at Bob and Doug because they try to take back the beer they put in his dog dish (they succeed by giving him a jelly donut instead).* This is not highbrow stuff. Also, a big scene is Bob drinks so much beer he pees on a fire and puts it out. Again, last warning, this is not highbrow entertainment.That said, there is just something really endearing about these two idiot brothers and how they move through the world. They abuse and tease each other, but they also cannot bear to be separated. They get a job at a beer factory by accident (actually, they are trying to con them out of free beer), and life is good. When push comes to shove, they come through and save the day by suggesting that their dog solve the problem, and, of course, it works. :)So I love this stupid movie, its dumb hockey scenes ("No goal! No goal! It was in the crease!") and its flying "Toronto skunk." So watch it, you knob, because my brother's a genius, he once got our dead battery goin' by mixin' bird feces and spit, and if you'd stick to your 12-point maintenance program, eh, then we wouldn't have to jump-start you like this!

Wacky, Crazy- over the top eh?
Strange Brew is an oddity. The film won't work for everyone, but for everyone else, just sit back relax and enjoy weird offbeat humour and crazy, crazy characters- and thats just our heroes.Doug and Bob McKenzie live for just one thing beer- so they are delighted to end up working for a brewery. Thing is this isn't any old brewery. Here the people in charge have a room where they are conducting expreiments to rule the world through beer manipulation.Max Von Sydow is the standout actor here, and you can tell that he is really enjoying himself as the bad villian. A break at least for him from more sombre down beat roles.In truth its like watching an old James Bond movie twisted with one liners straight out of Airplane. But the humour is more thought out, more dry if you like. The joke is there then gone, so this as aforementioned won't be too everybody's taste. It's a good movie though, just expect the unexpected. Would be good to watch this, followed by Waynes World and then Bill and Teds first movie.

Great film
Took a while to get here and there was some confusion over the discs region but the seller sorted it out real fast. The region by the way is 0 meaning it can be played anywhere. Strange Brew is a great film, it is the original Bill and Ted/Wayne's World. And even funnier you hoser eh. So take off to the great white north and watch this classic.
