Reviews
Plustown A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.
Dirtylogy It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
Payno I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Hattie I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.
kosmasp They are trying to sell this one as a "College Animals 3" movie in Germany, College Animals 1 and 2 being (National Lampoons) "Dorm Daze" 1+2. If I haven't lost you yet, you might be on the wrong page. Maybe you were looking for another movie?! ;o) Seriously though: This is just another one of those movies, where you are supposed to cheer and have fun with one very bad idea (staying in College forever). And while I was watching the extras on the DVD, I wasn't sure what to think of the guy who this is actually based on. Most of you will feel sorry for him. But then again, it's not like cares what we think of him. It's just a weird extra (interview) to have on the DVD though.The mentioned Dorm Daze are far better than this, so if you really wanna watch something, go on and watch those.
candeaz I have to agree with SamthFan. TheJonAlderman is obviously a plant who was involved with production or distribution, because no one in their right mind can give this 10 stars.I watched it because I was hoping it would be like the Van Wilder flicks or other college movies. Boy was I wrong. Normally the plot lines for college flicks are stupid, but this one is so retarded and unrealistic and poorly formed. The acting was awful, it reminded me of a shitty high school production with kids playing with a new camera they bought. The only thing worse than the acting was the awful writing. The plot jumped around and didn't flow at all. There were holes everywhere (why were they trying to get a scholarship? how would that solve the problem that they were graduating?) I really doubt these writers have been to university and had the college experience, because none of the stuff that was going on was realistic or plausible in any way.All in all, the character development was pitiful, there is no hook whatsoever, and the writing/acting was terrible.Do not see this movie. This is coming from someone who loves stupid movies too.
TheJonAlderman The people who made this movie weren't looking for Oscars, but they made a good quick watch movie. There has not been a college comedy in awhile and this is quick fresh start for one. Also I am really impressed with the the quality of everything in the movie for the budget they had. There is some original ideas in it, and I think the Pledging scene is the best I have seen for what it is. There is some intense scenes during 'Hell Night' and a bunch of boozing and getting drunk. Takes place in a full day of the last day of the school year. Worth a quick watch from video store or netflix.
SamthFan This is the story of two siblings on their last day of college that suddenly realize that they like the life of debauchery and don't want to give it up for a 9-5 life in banking. It takes place over a 24 hour period, beginning with a 6am backyard barbecue and beer-fest. Go figure.This film is a cheap knock-off of every fraternity movie without any of the originality or charm. The character development is pathetic--most of them are caricatures--and the plot is ridiculous. The production quality suggests that it was made by a bunch of college students with a hand-held. If you want some mild titillation, then go for it, but otherwise don't waste your time.
