Without a Paddle finds high school friends Jerry (Matthew Lillard), Dan (Seth Green) and Tom (Dax Shepard) coming back together after their friend Billy dies in a para-sailing accident in Costa Rica. The three friends re-bond after the funeral and find out that their friend Billy had plans for all of them to go on a treasure hunt in search of D.B. Cooper’s lost treasure. With the map in hand, the three set out to complete the adventure that their fallen friend was never able to make. Along the way they are attacked by a crazed grizzly bear, a pair of crazy backwoods pot farmers and two sexy hippy girls in the woods. Will the three complete their adventure and find D.B. Cooper before the pot farmers find them?

Along with the film, there is a slew of bonus material for you to enjoy after the film. First up you have an audio commentary by director Steven Brill or a video commentary by the cast and the director of the film. Both are informative but it’s the video commentary that is the most unique and its fun to watch them all interact with each other. MTV’s Making the Movie was a great segment from the TV network and their edition of Without a Paddle is included in this disc. There are also 13 deleted scenes with optional director commentary. These additional scenes actually have some of the funniest bits and it’s unfortunate they were originally removed but it’s nice they are included here. There are 6 MTV interstitials and the theatrical trailer in HD.
