Movie Reviews of National Lampoon's Animal House (Full Screen Double Secret Probation Edition)
Movie Review: Tour de Force
Summary: 5 Stars
There are few films I treasure as much as Animal House. It is to creative comedy what Mozart is to music. I've seen it about 20 times and used to sneak out past my bedtime during childhood to watch it on our family room's television. Every performance--particularly Belushi's, Matheson's, Hulce's and Furst's--was outstanding. Every character resonates and the send up of the fraternity system changed our culture. Animal House is gloriously politically incorrect and harkens back to a time when we used to accept the inconsistency, selfishness, and unpredictability of human nature. Of course, you don't have to appreciate it for high-minded reasons because it's a rollicking laugh riot and it lifts your spirits.
Summary of National Lampoon's Animal House (Full Screen Double Secret Probation Edition)
This is one of those movies that works for all the wrong reasons--disgusting, lowbrow, base humor that we are all far too sophisticated to find amusing. So, just don't tell anyone you still think it's a riot to watch John Belushi as the brutish Bluto slurp Jell-O or terrorize his less-aggressive fellow students. This crude parody of college life in the '60s spawned many imitations, but none could match the fresh-faced talent or bad taste of this huge box office success. (Remember all those toga parties in the '80s?) The first of the National Lampoon movies, this was originally released as National Lampoon's Animal House. Keep an eye out for a very young Kevin Bacon in his first credited screen appearance. --Rochelle O'GormanComedy DVD Video
