I review Tucker Max’s new movie I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell over at The Spearhead. A snippet:
Along with Maddox, Tucker Max is regarded as one of the founding writers of “fratire,” a fledging literary genre concerning masculinity and political incorrectness. Given the popularity of both Max and Maddox, it was only a matter of time before one of them got a movie deal, and with I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell, fratire has hit the big time. As a film, Max’s creation is a hilarious, if not groundbreaking ride, and as a study of masculinity and manhood in modern America, it’s even more valuable. While the oeuvre of I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell has been covered before, as Max himself co-wrote the film’s screenplay, we get a view of modern masculinity straight from the horse’s mouth.
Head over there to read and comment.
