Movie Reviews of PCU

Movie Review: And now I'll rate the DVD features
Summary: 5 Stars

The extra features are:
- The disc has a Fullscreen edition on the front and Widescreen on the back.
- Commentary by director Hart Bochner
- Separate commentary by Jeremy Piven
- Featurette
- Mudhoney "Pump It Up" video
- Original trailer

I didn't find the featurette or the video too thrilling. Hart Bochner's commentary was dry, but occasinally had informative nuggets. When I saw PCU in the theater, I remember being a little disappointed that it seemed to be more of a "party" movie rather than really skewering the PCU movement, which should have been its focus in my opinion. Hart Bochner basically says the same thing...he was contractually forced to deliver a PG-13 rating, and feels a more edgy, R-rated movie would have better suited the material. It would have been nice to see some of the scenes that were cut to avoid the "R" (like half the Jerrytown scene.)

Jeremy Piven's commentary was a little bit of a letdown, because he spends something like half of it complaining that the actors didn't get to do improvisation with the script during shooting. Really gets annoying the third or fourth time he brings it up

But hey, the extras are all free on the disc, so I can't complain too much. Enjoy this great movie!
