Cast & crew
A really good movie, even for a fraternity flick; it’s very funny but carries a powerful message of faith. I loved it and would definitely watch it again!
What I learned from this movie is how funny and relatable the online interview scene was. Wearing a suit on top and dressing casually below is something I have done many times. The camping scenes also brought back some childhood memories. The movie also has some humor in it when one of the guys is asked to make a prayer, and he says, " the art in heaven".... What stood out to me most is that pretending to have good character can sometimes help you become a better person. You just have to fake it till you make it.
Bad Counselors tells a story of two college students who pretend to be camp counselors to avoid getting expelled, only to find themselves in situations they definitely didn't expect. What starts as a way to get out of trouble turns into a story about friendship, second chances, and grace. Two frat brothers. 120 hours of community service. And a Christian summer camp was really worth and It's a great movie for youth , family and kids. I highly recommend it. It looks like a fun choice for a movie night if you enjoy comedy with a little heart
