4.0 out of 5 stars Let them go or I'll marry a Democrat!!!, January 1, 2005

This review is from: Fraternity Vacation (DVD)

HEre's another great mindless comedy from the 80's. It such a shame they can't make movies like this anymore. Members of rival fraternities show up at Palm Springs for Spring Break. They make a thousand dollar bet on who can make it with the 'dream girl'. One decides to play a suicidal love-stricken romantic, the other a fitness guru. Both strike out, but have 'proof'.

Along for the ride is Wendyl. He's the astrology geek who ends up with the babe. But not before he gets involved with Amanda Bearse who's father is the town sheriff.

This movie has all the things that make 80's movies so great, a light plot, sex, nudity, low-brow humor, and doing things that would get you arrested today, but back then seemed innocent enough. Movies like this never won any awards, but they live forever to remind us of how much fun the 80's were.

5.0 out of 5 stars A CLASSIC!!!!!!!, April 21, 2003

This review is from: Fraternity Vacation (DVD)

Fraternity Vacation is an excellent movie. I love this film. Stephen Georffeys is excellent as Wendell Tvedt, as well as Amanda Bearse. All the actors are well casted. Cameron Dye as Joe and Tim Robbins as Mother are hilerious and are well paired as buddies. Sheree J. Wilson is excellent and charming. It's nice to see Barbara Crampton and Kathleen Kinmont in their somewhat small roles. With this movie, you just have fun. It's funny, there's some romance and a little bit of nudity, if your Barbara Crampton and Kathleen Kinmont fans-you'll love it. This film is a classic in my opinion.

Just an average teen flick, but it reminds me of spring break in Palm Springs before they shut it down. It was starting to get crazy early 90's. I was hoping to get the original artwork but that's okay, I enjoyed the movie again! Thanks!!!
