The Greatest Drinking Movie Scenes and Drunk Acting of All Time

If you’re looking for something to help you kill the time while being cooped up at home, why not dive into the best drinking movie scenes and drunk acting of all time?!

From chasing down penguins, to sneaking into first-class, to accepting a ride from a drunk driver—we’ve got you covered with some of the greatest drunken times on film.

That Time E.T. Got Elliot Drunk

Remember drinking grape juice at dinner as a kid and pretending you were getting drunk from all the ‘wine’ you were drinking?

E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial takes underage ‘pretend drinking’ a step further thanks to Elliot and E.T.’s psychic connection.

Bored at home, E.T. tosses back a couple of beers and coincidentally gets Elliot drunk while he’s at school. Young Henry Thomas’ performance puts all our childhood ‘wine nights’ to shame here.

That Time Bogart Spoke the Truth About Running Into Your Ex

Movie scenes depicting the main character trying to recover from any breakup usually means hitting the bar.

Things are pretty typical for heartbroken, bar owner Bogart when his ex walks in to ruin his night in this scene from Casablanca.

The irony of the line, “Of all the gin joints, in all the towns…,” relates to all who just can’t seem to stop running into their ex when they so desperately want to be away from them. It would make anyone want to drink some more.

That Time Andy Got Into Trouble on the Road

A 40-year-old virgin, Andy, finds himself gripping onto his seat when he unknowingly accepts a drunken ride home from Nicky.

Thinking Nicky’s being funny, Andy blows into her breathalyzer ignition key (ordered to her by the judge) allowing her to rev the engine up.

Swerving in and out of traffic, Nicky terrifies Andy and aggressively kisses him. It’s no wonder she has received a DWI before this.

Although the scene is hilarious, it’s important to recognize the serious dangers of driving while under the influence and the DWI penalties you can face.

If drinking with friends, order a ride home for you and your friends from a sober person (unlike Andy)!

That Time Frank Tried to Convince Everyone to Go Streaking

Old School has some of the ultimate drunken party movie scenes out there.

Getting into a beer-chugging contest, Frank finds himself naked on stage with Snoop Dog and convincing everyone to go on a naked mile run.

He’s not very persuasive while drunk, but that doesn’t stop him from running solo across campus.

The adventure doesn’t stop until his wife, accompanied by her friends (how embarrassing!), picks him up. Arguably, it’s one of Will Ferrell’s funniest drunk acting scenes around.

That Time Karen Allen Out-Drank Us All

Like most good drinking parties, a friendly drinking competition is likely in store.

In this Raiders of The Lost Ark scene, girl power takes over when Karen Allen has to down continuous shots in a competition.

Is it a shot contest or a testosterone contest? Either way, Karen takes the game. This moment sends a clear message proving she’s tougher than most.

That Time McLovin Went on a Cop Car Ride

An unlikely friendship builds between a party-going teenager and two cops in Superbad. McLovin gets picked up by two rambunctious cops when he gets punched by a store robber.

Their journey takes them on a wild ride, jamming to Van Halen’s “Panama,” spinning donuts in the cop car, and burning the car to hide the evidence.

It’s not likely to befriend and get cops drunk while you’re a teenager, but it is if you’re McLovin in this movie scene.

Although the cops have an ‘out’ by burning the car, it’s important to remember to drink responsibly.

That Time Annie Tried to Sneak Into First Class

Flying can make some people anxious, especially for Kristin Wiig’s character Annie in Bridesmaids.

Not only is she drunk, but she’s also presumably on Xanax (given to her by frenemy Helen), so her daydreams are out of this world.

First, she’s seeing colonial women on the wings of the plane, next she’s disguising herself (putting sunglasses on) to sneak into first class, then she’s making announcements on the PA, and finally, she’s being arrested by an air marshall.

Annie’s issues bubble to the top throughout Kristen Wiig’s drunken, masterful acting in this scene.

That Opening Movie Scene Where Billy Madison Chases a Penguin

If you’re going to make an absurd movie, it needs the icing on top of the cake opening scene.

Known for playing drunk characters, Adam Sandler bemuses all when his character chases down a penguin (actually the gardener) in a golf cart while drunk.

The suits who witness this troubling chase that Billy is on, turn out to be the ones looking for an excuse to take his money.

This opening title sequence perfectly sets up his character flaws and sets the film in motion.

That Time Diana Threw up on the Cops

It’s never good news to find out your identity was stolen, it’s even worse when said person who stole your identity threw up on cops as ‘you’.

After spending someone else’s money at the bar and getting trashed, she gets taken away by the cops. When they ask her to use the breathalyzer she gives them one response, vomit.

Melissa McCarthy is relentlessly obnoxious, annoying, and drunk about 65% of the time throughout Identity Thief. You’ll love to hate her drunk persona and her sober persona as well.

That Time We All Watched Drunk Movie Scenes Together

Drinking with friends while watching some of the best-drunk movie scenes of all time can be a blast!

Whether you’re watching McLovin befriend the cops or watching Andy scream as they swerve in and out of traffic, it’s important to remember that drunk driving is a serious offense and extremely dangerous.
