There’s a fascinating true story behind The Greatest Beer Run Ever, the type of tale a man drinks out on for the rest of his life. Unfortunately, director Peter Farrelly turns it into the cinematic equivalent of a good brew gone skunked.
Zac Efron stars as John “Chickie” Donohue, a layabout and occasional Merchant Marine who takes up space in his parents’ apartment when he’s not at the corner bar with his buds. It’s the height of the Vietnam War, and Chickie’s watched as many of his buddies have gone overseas. He’s tired of the protests at home, which he feels dishonors their service, and when the bartender (Bill Murray) at his local watering hole says they all deserve a cold one, Chickie makes a drunken promise to deliver a duffel bag of Pabst Blue Ribbon.
