Absolutely Fantastic
The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.
A mockumentary that chronicles the prevalence of doping in the world of professional cycling. Despite a solid cast of well known actors such as Jeff Goldblum and Kevin Bacon this "comedy" spoof is extremely painful, boring and just a waste of a great cast alongside 39 minutes of absolute boredom and phoning in perfomances especially John Cena was just ridiculous. (0/10)
The only other mockumentary from HBO that I saw before that was "7 Days in Hell", it had Andy Samberg and Kit Harington (two actors that I'm a fan of), but didn't work for me, was unfunny at all. But here, man, this work! Tour de Pharmacy has some amazing actors here (Samberg, Bloom), is really short, and really funny too, there are some cool and sily (in a good way) jokes. I think I have to warning you: It's a trash movie, so go see it with this in mind, and I think that you will have a good time.7,5/10
Tour de Pharmacy, also known in the UK as Pharmacy Road is an Andy Samberg mocumentary that follows up Seven Days in Hell. This time in his cross hairs is the subject of cycling. More specifically the glory days of drugs induced cyclists in the Tour de France in 1982.Due to bribery issues that year the race was whittled down to just 5 riders as they were too stingy to help out the chief administrator with his credit card debts. Even then the remaining five were on some kind of drugs. One was a cheetah, another was a woman (on drugs), there was even a white Nigerian, he certainly had to be on drugs.Lance Armstrong appears to provide a certificate of authenticity, well who knows more about drugs and cycling than him.
This is the funniest movie I have seen all year. Though I am not a fan of mockumentaries, this one had me constantly laughing out loud. The jokes hit and they just kept coming. The absurdity was so hilarious because in a way it wasn't so far away from reality. The cast was spectacular funny, and Lance Armstrong playing himself was the cherry on top.I can only recommend "Tour de Pharmacy". Well done HBO!
