I've never been a massive fan of Eric Andre's stuff, thinking some of it is a bit over the top based on his Eric Andre Show content.

But I gave this ago after reading it was sort of like Borat in the sense that it's a fictional narrative but using orchestrated scenes with hidden cameras that involve the public and it was overall feel good in the sense that it highlights the good in the way the public react to certain situations. And they were right.

You probably have to be in the right mood for it (as some of it is a bit OTT), and it's certainly not a cinematic masterpiece, but I still laughed my ass off through it seeing how the public were reacting to some of the situations that played out.

Felt like and hour and a half of impractical jokers mixed with borat, but with a huge twist of wholesomeness mixed in.

A really fun watch imo, and definitely changed my opinion of Eric Andre as a comedian.

I found it was currently on Netflix - Bad Trip

Edit: Just finished it: So funny and wholesome. Borat made me uncomfortable, but I love the way the public interacted with this style of filming though. The credits were cool too, to see the reactions when people found out they were being filmed :) - It also makes you realise how many retakes they did to get the final shots for the movie, as there were clearly unincluded reactions, so they must have reshot a lot, which makes sense :D

Saw this scene on Reddit earlier and just shrugged it off as some prank clip show. Didn't realise it was a film but will give it a look tomorrow and comment.
