The Quest (2006)
5/10

You pretty much get what you expect from this. It doesn't pretend to be anything other than what it is, a trip abroad getting drunk. I'd approach it more as a documentary than a film.

I couldn't really relate to the film myself, however I did understand Eddie's difficulties. I wouldn't say he was a particularly likeable person, and at times his jealousy and entitlement seemed to poke through.

It reminded me a lot of the 2011 series 'Sun, sex, and suspicious parents', and to it's credit, predates the inundation of similar shows such as Jersey Shore et al.

What would have made it better for me would've been a bit more background on the characters and a follow up after the main event.

I can only predict Eddie would've gone all in on his love interest and can't help feeling a bit sorry for him.
