Going the Distance (2004) Movie Synopsis

He may have only just graduated, but Nick (Christopher Jacot) has it all figured out - marriage, a lucrative career and a totally different lifestyle from that of his West coast hippie parents. When he discovers that his future wife may be falling prey to a powerful and oversexed music producer, Nick is determined to fly to Toronto to win her back.

Lifelong buds and dedicated surfers Tyler and Dime have other ideas for their staid best friend - the road trip adventure of his life. With only six days to make it to the MuchMusic Video Awards, the unlikely road warriors head off. Two sexy hitchhikers, Sasha and Jill, complicate matters and a series of accidents, orchestrated by a malevolent stranger, sabotage the trip, turning Nicks' future plans upside down.

a fun light hearted comedy. not 5 star material from a critical viewpoint, some excellent gags that are understated(tongue in cheek) and work well unlike american comedy that tends to come across as crude, crass and vulgar in the same context.a surprise movie and this is why it is so deserving of accolade, it delivers more than ever expexted.

Best comedy I`ve seen in a long time. Great original plot and story line, plus a couple or hot new stars in the making that should make this movie a hit with the younger crowd.

Wonderfull, this movie is incrible and shawn Robert do a excellent papel I wanna know sites of shawn robert if you know pass me please!!!
