Until Boonie: The Movie gets the green light, these boozed-up bits steal the grog-necking show.
Coyote Ugly
Hottie Piper Perabo turns up for her first shift at a New York boozer to find the sexy staff dancing on the bar and pouring spirits down eager blokes’ throats. Beaut bit in a bit of a shit film. Not as shit as
Cocktail, but.
Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels
After Jason Statham and his mates pull off a robbery, they celebrate with vodka, whisky and any random booze they can throw down their throats, then pass out. Probably what single bloke Guy Ritchie’s up to right now.
Old School
Frank The Tank! Will Ferrell hits the beer bong then backs it up with a piss-funny nudie run. “It feels so good when it touches your lips,” he reckons. We assume he means the beer, not the nakedness.
Leaving Las Vegas
Nic Cage prepared for his role as an alcoholic screenwriter by filming himself drunk to study his movements. In one memorable scene, he downs a whole bottle of vodka in three gulps. Our editor’s done it in five — but with a minibar bottle.
Road Trip
College mates on a mission talk their way into an all-black fraternity. What follows is beer. Followed by more beer, breakdancing, a skinny dude Irish dancing to Run-DMC and a fat chick in a leotard. Piss funny as.
Beerfest
Part comedy romp, part instructional video on how to drink, the best boozy bit occurs in the final, impressive, boot-shaped yard glass (DAS Boot) skol-off comp between ze Germans and the Seppos. The actors even did all their own stunts. Fact.
The Legend of Drunken Master
To be able to fight well, Jackie Chan has to be loaded or else he gets his arse kicked. One of many cool scenes sees him take on four guys in a drunken stupor while stumbling around downing bottles of wine. Give it a go, Mundine.
Barfly
Drunk cool guy Mickey Rourke goes to his favourite haunt the day after copping a beating from the bartender. He pisses off the bloke again, guzzles from the beer tap, then they punch on in the back alley — but this time he wins. We love a happy ending.
