Movie Reviews of National Lampoon's Van Wilder
Movie Review: Gross and not funny
Summary: 1 Stars
I love comedies of all sorts including much of the National Lampoon offerings (American Pie, Step Brothers, Pineapple Express to give a quick sampling). This is terrible. It appeals to the lowest common denominator and offers nothing but bad sex and bathroom jokes. I love good sex and bathroom jokes; Van Wilder has none. Ryan Reynolds' acting is the one positive giving it the one requisite star. Really, just not funny.
Summary of National Lampoon's Van Wilder
Studio: Lions Gate Home Ent. Release Date: 05/01/2008 Rating: UrIn a futile but ambitiously decadent attempt to revive the loony legacy of National Lampoon comedies, Van Wilder will make you laugh out loud, or vomit, or both. It's that kind of movie, in which the title character (played by sitcom survivor Ryan Reynolds) is the resident slacker of Coolidge College for seven years and running. Enjoying his party-animal supremacy and reluctant to fulfill his potential, he's got an idolizing assistant from India (Kal Penn, the movie's ethnic stereotype, desperate virgin, and comedic highlight), and a journalism major (Tara Reid) assigned to uncover the secret of Van's controlled anarchy. Unfortunately, the movie's more Down to You than Animal House, opting for familiar teen romance over campus shenanigans, despite an abundance of flatulence, diarrhea, sicko sex jokes, gratuitous nudity, and one gag (involving a bulldog) that's disgusting by any standard. Keg-fueled frat-rats will surely elevate Van Wilder to semiclassic status; all others are urged to proceed with caution. --Jeff Shannon
