Synopsis: The people who took audiences on a "Road Trip" and back to "Old School" now invite you on a wild "Eurotrip." Have you ever pressed "Send" on an email and immediately wished you could get it back? Scotty Thomas (Scott Mechlowicz) and his Berlin-based computer pen pal Mieke (Jessica Boehrs)... The people who took audiences on a "Road Trip" and back to "Old School" now invite you on a wild "Eurotrip." Have you ever pressed "Send" on an email and immediately wished you could get it back? Scotty Thomas (Scott Mechlowicz) and his Berlin-based computer pen pal Mieke (Jessica Boehrs) have been writing each other for years, sharing every detail of their lives. When Mieke makes a cyber pass at Scotty, he completely freaks out, thinking that this guy he’s known for years is coming on to him…in German no less. Too bad the the one detail Scotty doesn’t seem to know is that, in Germany, Mieke is a girl’s name. By the time Scotty figures out that Mieke is a girl, and a hot one at that, Mieke has cut off her email account and all contact with him. Thinking that this might be his one chance at true love—even though he’s never actually met the girl—Scotty and his best friends, Cooper (Jacob Pitts) and the twins Jenny (Michelle Trachtenberg) and Jamie (Travis Wester), embark on a raucous trip across Europe headed for Berlin. Their trek takes them from London to Paris to Amsterdam and Eastern Europe, exposing them—literally—to every lascivious, larcenous and lecherous indulgence Europe has to offer, in a comedy that gives new meaning to the phrase "foreign relations." From The Montecito Picture Company, "Eurotrip" was directed by first-timer Jeff Schaffer from a screenplay that he co-wrote with his longtime writing partners Alec Berg and David Mandel. The trio most recently adapted Dr. Seuss’ "The Cat in the Hat." Daniel Goldberg ("Old School"), Jackie Marcus, Alec Berg and David Mandel are producing the film, with Ivan Reitman ("Ghostbusters"), Tom Pollock ("Road Trip") and Joe Medjuck ("Old School") serving as executive producers. The film stars Scott Mechlowicz ("Neverland"), Michelle Trachtenberg (TV’s "Buffy the Vampire Slayer"), Jacob Pitts ("K-19: The Widowmaker") and Travis Wester ("Teddy Bear’s Picnic"). [More]

Reviews
If you took every road trip comedy ever made, ingested them, then bonged a bottle of ex-lax, this is what would show up a half hour later.
A raunchy comedy that is utterly formulaic but still funnier than it has any right to be.
A movie so bad that it dares to give the old and worn-out term "the ugly American" new life and vitality.
Eurotrip delivers a savvy potty jocularity, probably because some of that European culture rubbed off on the penis jokes.
Maybe there really are people out there who just can't get enough of the kind of joke where the punch line is that a character is gay. Or the pope.
