without a paddle

"Without a Paddle" is a 2004 American adventure comedy film directed by Steven Brill. The story follows three childhood friends who reunite after the death of a fourth friend and embark on a camping trip to search for the loot of the long-lost airplane hijacker D.B. Cooper. During their river journey, they face various misadventures including encounters with wildlife, locals, and challenges navigating the wilderness. The film stars Seth Green, Matthew Lillard, and Dax Shepard and includes comedic and slapstick elements with some physical and crude humor. It is noted as a light-hearted, fun movie rather than a serious or cerebral comedy. A direct-to-video sequel was released in 2009. The movie received mixed reviews but is considered enjoyable for audiences looking for a casual, funny adventure film.
