Laid in America is a 2016 comedy film directed by Sam Milman and Peter Vass. The movie stars two popular YouTube personalities: KSI and Caspar Lee, alongside comedian Bobby Lee. The premise of the film revolves around two British exchange students, Duncan and Jack, who are excited to experience the quintessential American college experience at a prestigious university in the United States. What follows is an adventurous mission to secure the girls of their dreams before they return home to the UK.

The movie begins with Duncan and Jack arriving at the American university where they are met with a culture shock of sorts. The two are portrayed as hapless individuals who are completely out of their depth when it comes to the nuances of American culture. They soon meet their American counterparts, Teddy and Vanessa, who are initially dismissive of them but soon warm up to them after finding out that they also plan on partying and getting laid.

Duncan and Jack set their sights on two popular girls at the university, who are the most sought after girls in the college. They are soon thrown into a series of wild and unpredictable events as they try to win over these girls. Their schemes involve some classic comedy hijinks such as the classic "switcheroo" and a wild party scene complete with plenty of drinking and dancing.

Throughout the movie, the comedy is very much in the vein of typical American gross-out comedies, with the added bonus of KSI and Caspar Lee, who bring their own brand of British humor to the mix. The movie features several instances of the classic "fish out of water" trope, which is used to great effect. The humor ranges from slapstick and gross-out gags to witty one-liners, which are guaranteed to make you chuckle.

The character of Teddy, played by Bobby Lee, provides much of the movie's comedic relief. He is portrayed as a wild and unpredictable party animal who is up for anything. Bobby Lee's performance is particularly noteworthy, as he manages to steal every scene he is in. His antics and comedic timing make for several laugh-out-loud moments.

One of the strongest points of the movie is the chemistry between the four leads. KSI and Caspar Lee have been friends for years, and this is evident in their on-screen chemistry. The two of them bounce off each other well and are believable as two best friends. Similarly, the dynamic between Teddy and Vanessa is a highlight of the film. Their interplay is both hilarious and endearing, and it is hard not to root for them.

The movie's pacing is quick, and the plot moves at a fast pace. While the movie doesn't break any new ground in terms of its plot, it manages to remain entertaining throughout. The comedic scenes are interspersed with a few more dramatic moments, which help to build the characters and add depth to the story.

The film's soundtrack also deserves a special mention. The songs used in the movie are upbeat and catchy, adding to the movie's overall party vibe. The music is expertly used to punctuate key moments in the film, adding to the emotional impact of the scenes.

In conclusion, while Laid in America may not be the most original comedy film, it manages to tick all the boxes when it comes to delivering a fun and enjoyable movie. The characters are likable, and the comedy is aimed squarely at a younger audience, making it the perfect movie to watch with friends. As a showcase for KSI and Caspar Lee, the movie works well, and it is easy to see why they have amassed such huge followings online. If you're in the mood for a light and entertaining comedy, Laid in America is definitely worth checking out.
