Without a Paddle - Good Blind Buy?
I love to camp and my sister in law told me about this movie.

Good blind buy or rental?

rental

It has a few moments, but overall it's pretty run of the mill stuff.

For similar hijinks with better payoff, I recommend Road Trip, Euro Trip, or Harold and Kumar.

Check out this site's reviews. You get 2 "rent it's" and 1 "recommended". See what they like and dislike, then decide who's most in line with your taste.

This was the 3rd worst movie of 2004, behind The Grudge and of course, The Village.

I will play Devils Addvocate, I liked this movie, it was rather funny. I think Matt Lilerd and Dax are very funny. Seth Green I thought was mis-cast in this role, but none the less, still a funny movie. I recommend it.

Yes, if you are blind then you may enjoy this movie, although it would help to be deaf as well.
