Fubar (2002)
Directed by Michael Dowse
Terry and Dean are lifelong friends who have grown-up together: shotgunning their first beers, forming their first garage band, and growing the great Canadian mullet known as "hockey hair". Now the lives of these Alberta everymen are brought to the big screen by documentarian Ferral Mitchener in an exploration of the depths of friendship, the fragility of life, growing up gracefully and the art and science of drinking beer like a man.

What critics compared Fubar to
Director Michael Dowse’s rude comedies, such as Fubar and Goon, tend to focus on endearing, obsessive idiots whom you like despite themselves.
So "Goon" and "Fubar" director Michael Dowse has a high bar to reach with "What If."
Canadian director Michael Dowse's movies tend to revolve around vulgar, garrulous individuals driven to ridiculous extremes, from the hotheaded hockey player in 2011's "Goon" to the headbangers at the center of "Fubar" and "Fubar II."
Love is not the only thing the characters tumble into: the bursts of roughhouse slapstick seem appropriate coming from the director of the winning hockey comedy, “Goon,” as well as “FUBAR” and “It’s All Gone Pete Tong.”
