Our take
Mark Wahlberg and Paul Walter Hauser play marketers pitching a full-coverage condom to the World Cup, then fleeing Brazil after a drunken scandal. Rated US R for crude sexual material, drug content, language throughout, violence and graphic nudity. Penis jokes, product demos, frontal nudity, heavy drinking and drug use, chase violence played for laughs and constant use of the f-word fill the film. Adult gross-out comedy territory only.
Uplifting themes
Rival coworkers become loyal friends, with a light nod to men sharing feelings The leads are likable but mostly model irresponsible adult behavior

Talk after watching
- The whole plot revolves around condoms and male body parts. When does raunchy humor cross from silly into uncomfortable?
- Brad pushes a sober executive to drink, and things spiral. How does the movie treat peer pressure around alcohol?
