thecoorslightking .. @thecoorslightking Mar 17 Was one of the funniest comedies I've ever seen I'm a gen xer so this movie fits right in it shows how much fun life was before cell phones and Wi-Fi and all the other nonsense that we're so depending on now it's just about friends having a good time and just living life something we need to get back to See more Jack F @MovieFan111 Nov 17 It's an old movie, but a good movie. It's called "animal house" for a reason... and college kids today do not shy away from this label unfortunately.

Rewatching it almost 50 years later, you’ve really got to wonder what all of the fuss was about. There are a couple of laughs and a soundtrack that’s kind of fun but, otherwise, it pretty much falls flat thanks to a plot that is nonexistent and humour that hasn’t aged well. John Belushi does his best to mug his way through scene after scene and it’s nice to see young versions of Kevin Bacon and Tom Hulce but, beyond that, there’s not much worth seeing here.

It’s the kind of movie that keeps you grinning from start to finish, even when it veers into dumb territory. It taps into a strange nostalgia for a college experience most people never had—a carefree blur of parties, pranks, and camaraderie that makes academic failure and romantic disasters feel like minor setbacks compared to the joy of sticking with your friends and a steady supply of booze. John Belushi is the standout, with his physical comedy and total commitment to absurdity carrying some of the film’s funniest moments. The whole thing is ridiculous, and while a handful of jokes haven’t aged well and the plot is more an excuse for chaos than a coherent story, the energy is irresistible. Add in a killer soundtrack and you’ve got a comedy classic that’s hard not to love, flaws and all. See more Cameron E. @Cam10ed Aug 2 Hilarious and brilliant for 1979 See more Read all reviews
