COLLEGE

With Drake Bell, Kevin Covais, Andrew Caldwell, Andree Moss, Carolyn Moss, Alona Tal, Ryan Pinkston, Camille Mana

Written by Dan Callahan & Adam Ellison
Directed by Deb Hagan

The template set up by John Landis' Animal House in 1978 is still being used decades later. Only, it is hardly ever as funny as his classic original.
In this case you have a trio of high-school friends heading out to view the college they may be attending the following year. One of them (Kevin) just got dumped by his girlfriend, accusing him of being too boring. What they end up doing is pretending to be freshmen, participating in all of the madness, drinking and prospective sex at the out-of-control campus. Kevin's friends are adamant on getting him to have a crazy time to forget his girl (and in the process proving to her he's actually an exciting guy). With the older students at the fraternity making their life a living hell, they decide to man up and hit back.
With a few laughs but a majority of familiar moments and attempts to be crude, gross and politically incorrect, what you end up with is just another dumb college comedy.
