When a group of teenage friends go on a spring break camping trip, an unfortunate accident sets off a race against time to save their friend's most prized possession.
I was told that the arrival of new streaming media would mean that we wouldn't be so reliant on arbitrary "movie" or "TV" running times anymore. I was lied to. The Package is roughly 93 minutes and that feels 40 to 60 minutes too long.
Big laughs are found along the way, with the central grossness of the plot getting the movie to a level of playfulness that's not often found with this type of vulgar funny business.
To say that The Package is one continuous dirty joke with an outrageously absurd premise wouldn't be an exaggeration. It's also a funny, sweet, raucous teen comedy that's by turns ridiculous and raunchy, but thankfully never too profound.
