Box Elder

The great American bromance.

NR 2008 · 95 min · ★ 6.7 · Comedy

Four best friends fart through their last years of college, hanging out, drinking and eating lots of sandwiches. Using break-ups and re-occurring scholastic failures to impose a quarter-life crisis, they take turns postponing responsibility, avoiding accountability, and looking for someone or something to substantiate their lives, all the while hedging their bets and mastering the art of treading water and getting away with it.
