What happens

EuroTrip is a 2004 American teen sex comedy film directed by Jeff Schaffer, from a screenplay he wrote with Alec Berg and David Mandel. The film was produced by The Montecito Picture Company and distributed by DreamWorks Pictures. It stars Scott Mechlowicz, Jacob Pitts, Michelle Trachtenberg, and Travis Wester. Mechlowicz portrays Scotty Thomas, a recent high school graduate from the Youngstown, Ohio area who travels across Europe in search of his German pen pal, Mieke (Jessica Boehrs). Accompanied by his friend Cooper (Pitts) and twin siblings Jenny and Jamie (Trachtenberg and Wester), Scotty's quest takes him to England, France, the Netherlands, Slovakia, Germany, and Italy, encountering awkward, humorous, and embarrassing situations along the way. EuroTrip was released in theaters on February 20, 2004. It received mixed reviews from critics and underperformed at the box office, grossing $22.6 million against a $25 million budget. It gained popularity through its home video release and eventually attained a cult classic status. It is considered a spiritual successor to the 2000 DreamWorks release Road Trip, but was not originally intended to serve as such, with the original title being Ugly Americans. Before its release, DreamWorks deliberately changed the film's title to EuroTrip, in order to capitalize on the success of Road Trip. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
