We don’t care about kissin’.

 

Welcome to Critical Mess, episode 36. Tonight, Nick, Gris, and Brian are discussing 2001’s Wet Hot American Summer, starring every comedian ever. Some of those people include: Paul Rudd, Janeane Garofalo, David Hyde Pierce, Molly Shannon, Ken Marino, Michael Ian Black, Amy Poehler, Michael Showalter, H. Jon Benjamin, Bradley Cooper, and more. 

 

Wet Hot American Summer is an extremely goofy comedy documenting the last day of a summer camp in Maine sometime during 1981. It follows some of the camp counselors including Andy (Paul Rudd), Victor (Ken Marino), Susie (Amy Poehler), Gail (Molly Shannon), and Coop (Michael Showalter) as they do lots of smooching while also trying to wrangle the campers. It’s just as dumb—and entertaining—as it sounds. 

 

This movie has a 38% rating with critics on Rotten Tomatoes and a 75% score with audiences.
