    This is one of the most best college movies ever. Jeremy Piven is grat in this. And this is just a wonderful wonderful fun movie. I loved it.

    Typical mindless college flick that makes fun of being overly politically correct. The scene where they were pelting the protesting vegans with raw hamburger was funny.

    Yeah I remember a bit about this movie..especially the scene when Piven RULES BECAUSE HE'S THE FUCKING SHIT

    This is a hidden classic from the 90's. Sort of a 90's homage to Animal House. Jeremy Piven is great in this. He had me laughing through out the film. Plus David Spade was the great dorky villain of the film. With your typical story of a frat house vs the dean. But it still works...( read more). This is a funny film. If you liked Animal House or Old School then check this movie out.

    This movie is a college cult classic. I can't believe I went so many years without seeing this release. But what is cool is to know how Jeremy Piven's career has turned out b/c of it. Do you remember Old School? Yeah, role reversal 100%. Some of the lines from this movie have bee...( read more)n used as tie-in with some band releases, for example Blood Duster's Str8 Outta Northcott. I would've never known, if I hadn't seen this movie. Plenty of college pranks and college partying with some good beer and pot. Excellent follow-up to Animal House.

    Not only was this movie the best comedy in the 90's but also was better than animal house.

    I fucking hate this movie and it makes me realize that there are only so many ways to call a movie a piece of shit, but this really is a piece of shit.

    One of the funniest 90s or college movies ever, you take your pick. This movie is very anti-pc, which makes for a better world, and better comedy. Not really any better way to sum up teh ridiculousness of the 90s.
