Road Trip
The greatest college tradition of all.
Directed by Todd Phillips
Produced by DreamWorks Pictures, The Montecito Picture Company
A high-energy, crude college comedy built on slapstick mishaps and irreverent humor, driven by a cross-country race against time with minimal emotional stakes.
After a student at the University of Ithaca films his one-night stand with a beautiful sorority girl, he discovers one of his friends has accidentally mailed the homemade sex tape to his girlfriend in Austin. In a frenzy, he must borrow a car and hit the road in a desperate bid to intercept the tape.
