Review Summary and Plot Commentary about Road Trip
A guy and his longtime girlfriend go to seperate colleges. The guy makes a video tape and sends to her, but realizes he sent the wrong tape. He sent a sex tape of him and another girl. Knowing that his girlfriend is on vacation the guy and his pals set out to retrieve the tape before she sees it. Along the way they wreck a car, 'borrow a schoolbus', run out of money and the geek of the group falls in love. The guy gets there just in time, but while he's on the phone his girlfriend begins watching the tape. Luckily for the guy, one of his ignorant friends accidentally erased the tape. He and the girl break up anyway and he goes back to the girl he cheated with.

Him and his buddies get a car and they try to get to Texas within 3 days to retrieve the tape.

This movie is about a guy chasing a bad sex video from Ithaca, NY to Austin, TX in hopes of keeping it out of his girlfriend's sight. The movie is funny from beginning to end, and it includes a car getting blown up, the boys stealing a bus from the blind, and one of them landing a girl of his own. And another girl who starred in the sex video finds the guys in Austin. I hope they make a sequel to this hilarious comedy!
