Description
The “National Lampoon” franchise is resurrected for another politically incorrect collegiate romp with this R-rated gross-out sex comedy. National Lampoon’s Van Wilder revolves around the exploits of its title character (Ryan Reynolds), a seventh-year senior who’s made it his goal in life to help each and every Coolidge College undergrad succeed in life — or at least in bed. Van’s charmed life seems to have an expiration date, however; his father (Tim Matheson) has cut off his presumably vast allowance. Financial insecurity doesn’t phase the big man on campus, and he soon starts up a lucrative cottage industry as a planner of high-priced campus blowouts. When an enterprising reporter from the college paper gets wind of Van’s liberal interpretation of the school’s code of conduct, it seems his gig is up — unless, of course, he can charm the hard-edged Gwen (Tara Reid) into accepting his uniquely skewed world view. In addition to Matheson, Van Wilder features cameos from a number of ’80s teen movie stalwarts, including Edie McClurg, Paul Gleason, and Erik Estrada.Rating: R (for strong sexual content, gross humor, language and some drug content)Lionsgate
