Runs 100 minutes

A group of friends has been playing Tag since they were children. Even into adulthood, they continue to pley for the month of May every year. The loser has to hang his head in shame until the next year. One of the friends, Jerry (Jeremy Renner) has never been tagged. This year, Hogan (Ed Helms), Bob (Jon Hamm), Reggie (Lil Rel Howery) and Chilli (Jake Johnson) are determined to tag Jerry if it is the last thing they do. And, they find their opening when they discover that Jerry is getting married and didn't invite them because he knew they would tag him. Game on. The friends plot their strategy and head to the wedding. Will they finally be able to tag Jerry?

Nacho Kim and I thought this movie was hilarious! The jokes come at you fast and furious. The language is pretty rough and a couple of the jokes are very distasteful but overall, this movie was very funny. Isla Fisher was a crack-up as Hogan's wife. She was more into the game than any of the men. The best part of the movie is that it is based on a real group of guys that still get together to play tag and will stop at nothing to get each other. They travel and wear disguises and everything. The clips of the real guys during the credits are a hoot!! I thought this movie was well cast and and the guys had great chemistry. Jon Hamm is particularly outstanding. It is interesting to note that Jeremy Renner broke both of his arms on the third day of shooting. Most of his scenes have CGI arms. Hilarious! Anyway, this film is funny and entertaining. A perfect summer flick. Go see it.
