Reviews by Score:

Screen It! (Jim Judy)

While I realize the film isn't aspiring to be anything more than a dumb and/or raucous comedy, there's good/smart dumb and lame/stupid dumb. This effort clearly falls into the latter category. ...read the complete Van Wilder movie review at Screen It! (Jim Judy)

Entertainment Zone Review

Well, if for some strange reason you havenâ��t gotten enough college antics and humor, then â��Nation Lampoonâ��s Van Wilderâ�� is definitely for you. This juvenile â��comedyâ�� seems to be yet another excuse to use disgusting jokes and adolescent ...read the complete Van Wilder movie review at Entertainment Zone Review

The Movie Mom (Nell Minow)

They take a mundane story and give it emotional resonance. ...read the complete Van Wilder movie review at New York Post (Lou Lumenick)

One Guy's Opinion (Frank Swietek)

"Van Wilder" is fairly smoothly made; it doesn't have the shabby look of "Slackers," for instance. But technical polish can't make up for a less-than-lovable protagonist, a colorless romance and a nearly unremitting stream ...read the complete Van Wilder movie review at One Guy's Opinion (Frank Swietek)

Milwaukee Journal Sentinel (Sue Pierman)

Van Wilder brings a whole new meaning to the phrase 'comedy gag.' At least one scene is so disgusting that viewers may be hard pressed to retain their lunch. ...read the complete Van Wilder movie review at Milwaukee Journal Sentinel (Sue Pierman)
