High college students face an unexpected journey when they must navigate two flights of stairs to retrieve their pizza delivery, turning a simple task into a surreal adventure.

Critics Consensus

Frenetic and frequently hilarious, Pizza Movie overloads itself with psychedelic toppings while remaining a tasty slice of gonzo comedy.

My goodness does it flail when brought to life on the screen in a collection of pointless and random hallucinatory digressions that mean nothing and go nowhere as they desperately strive for laughs.

2.5/4

Even when the laughs evaporate in the final stretch, Gaten Matarazzo and Sean Giambrone know how to breathe comic life into a stoner buddy comedy that’s high on its own shitfaced supply.

It’s fast, witty, and packed with clever punchlines, though it still finds time for several scatological gags.

Pizza Movie is an outburst in the streaming catalog, an explosion of demented but harmless ideas, a brilliant bit of nonsense to reconcile us with laughter without the toll of intellectual rigor. [Full review in Spanish]

The movie feels adjacent to something like the Harold & Kumar movies, which is a wonderful place to be in my opinion...

Pizza Movie isn’t a five-course meal at a Michelin-starred restaurant. It’s that plate of nachos, covered in a neon orange cheese. In the right mood, under the right influences, it hits just right.

Good comedies are few and far between these days. It's finally nice to stumble across a decent 'stoner' movie and feel high from laughing. Absolutely worth a watch to forget about the world and go on a journey. The structure, pacing, acting and script 10/10.

This movie is soooooo funny and entertaining. It feels like a low-budget YouTube film, but it is still sooo good.

Pizza Movie is a surreal comedy .... What starts as a simple task—three students going downstairs to grab a pizza—quickly spirals into a bizarre, multi-layered journey. Driven by a strange drug, each stage of their trip reveals hidden fears, flaws, and uncomfortable truths about themselves. The film cleverly expands a minimal premise into a sequence of shifting realities, blending absurd humor with introspective themes. While some jokes overstay their welcome and the logic feels intentionally loose, the evolving characters and bold self-awareness keep it engaging. A chaotic yet thoughtful ride that uses nonsense to uncover something real.

This was such a fun watch! Caleb Hearon's episode of "So True" with Gaven Matarazzo brought me here & I was so excited to see them in a movie together. I was cracking up the whole movie. Listen, if you don't like coming of age stoner movies like Superbad, Project X, or Pineapple Express, this one is not for you. There was ONE moment where I thought ok this scene is a little silly, but hey, that's okay..the other 99% of the movie was just awesome. All in all I'd definitely recommend it! It was refreshing in its creativity and the characters were so unique
