5.0 out of 5 stars Big Man on Campus, August 4, 2003

This review is from: Big Man on Campus [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I first saw this movie in 1989, just flipping throught the movie channels. I thought I would wet my pants laughing. Laughing so hard until I was crying. My grandsons were only 3 & 1 at the time but still thought it funny. They are 18 and 15 and are still borrowing my video to show their friends because they have to see it to believe it. Now, the following is that much bigger. We love Alan Katz! Actually, we love the whole crew. I don't see how they made it through the hilarious script. Cudos to the writers, the casting people, etc. We always order "2 faces" when we go to the chicken place and watch the reaction on the employees faces then we crack-up. I'm 62 years old, and still can't catch my breath from laughing whenever we watch Big Man on Campus. I'm laughing just talking about it with you. Like most of the reviewers, no one except us seems to have seen this movie. It's a must when everyone is over for Christmas. It going on 14 years and we never get tired of it. Where in the world is Alan Katz now?

4.0 out of 5 stars An Unknown Classic, December 15, 2001

This review is from: Big Man on Campus [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I had never heard of this movie or the actor playing "Bob" (Allan Katz) but I was rolling on the floor laughing at this witty adaptation of "Hunchback of Notre Dame". Me and my family have watched this dozens of times, and we find ourselves using the catch phrases from the funniest parts. A lot of people I tell about this movie have never heard of it, either... but I do recommend it. It showed recently on the Disney channel, so you know it's for the whole family.

5.0 out of 5 stars This Movie Has Scarred Me For Life!!!, September 11, 2006

This review is from: Big Man on Campus [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I've only seen this movie once on cable in the early, early 90's, but I have been scarred for life by that 1 viewing.
I have named every pet I've had since "Bob", and I love to go to chicken places and order "Two Faces", since I can get what ever part of the chicken I want.
WHY ISN'T THIS MOVIE OUT ON DVD YET!
I'd gladly pay $19.99 for it, but it might end up in the $9.99 bin or less if they ever dig into the classics and put this one out.
