‘Ricky Stanicky’ Review: Zac Efron And John Cena Mine Big Laughs In Peter Farrelly’s Hilarious Return To Raunchy R-Rated Comedy


A review of 'Ricky Stanicky' , Peter Farrelly's return to the kind of raunchy hilarious comedy with Zac Efron and John Cena winning big laughs

More recently Farrelly, who also managed to put heart in even the wildest of situations, took his career in a different direction with his wonderful and emotional Oscar winning Green Book, as well as the terrific true story, The Greatest Beer Run Ever which starred Zac Efron. Starting with a flashback we meet three juvenile, highly immature pranksters, Dean, J.T., and Wes who on one Halloween pull off a stunt that goes too far on an unsuspecting house they virtually set on fire before running off, but scribbling the name Ricky Stanicky on a piece of clothing left behind to lay the blame elsewhere. Enter Rod, who they fly in out of desperation, but soon find the guy is giving the performance of this life simply dazzling the crowd in every way imaginable, even finishing off the circumcision after the Rabbi (Jeffrey Ross) flips out after accidentally taking ketamine.
