When Tommy receives a phone call inviting his band to open for Green Day on New Years Eve, he doesn't realize it's an elaborate prank by his older brother, Wayne. Desperate to believe his life is about to change, Tommy steals Wayne's car and begins driving his band from Kansas City to Los Angeles, hell bent on getting there in three days. What follows is a rowdy and uproarious road trip across America, inspired by Green Day's early days of touring in a van, years before the release of their breakout record Dookie.

Tara Brady Irish Times 3h
3.5/5
The script...seldom strays from the familiar rhythms of the coming-of-age road comedy. Lee Kirk, who previously directed Billie Joe in Ordinary World, embraces a broad, episodic formula that delivers a chilled-out comedy with few surprises. Go to Full Review Alistair Harkness Scotsman 1d
2/5
It’s a film about finding your tribe and following your dreams, executed with a gooey sweetness that’s a world away not just from the reality of present day America, but also the sharp, hormonally charged comedy of teen movies like Superbad... Go to Full Review Alex Hudson Exclaim! Oct 15

Unless you look closely, you'd swear it was a long-lost '90s comedy Go to Full Review Joonatan Itkonen Region Free Sep 30
1/5
Hopelessly long, poorly paced, and so insistent that it's doing something radical by making the most pedestrian and safe product imaginable that all of it ends up feeling noxious. To use a dated reference, it's the Hot Topic of punk rock movies. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
