2.0 out of 5 stars
Nothing new, February 4, 2009
College paints the same tried and true portrait of drunken debauchery that high school kids love to watch, and while it manages to provide a little bit of laughs, it doesn't end up nearly being as funny as it could be. Basically Superbad-lite, College tells the tale of a trio of high school kids (Drake Bell, Andrew Caldwell, Kevin Covais) looking for some fun at a college campus on the weekend. Running afoul of some frat boys (Nick Zano, Gary Owen, and Whitest Kids U Know member Zach Cregger), the trio partake in the usual mix of hijinks that you'd expect from this sort of thing, with a few laughs to be found to be sure, but not nearly enough to hold your interest during the film's whole running time. It doesn't help when our trio of heroes prove to be more annoying than the frat boys they're taking on either. You'll definitely see worse comedies of this type than College, but you know you're in for a rough time when you get more laughs watching the DVD's blooper reel than watching the actual flick.

COMPLETE GARBAGE, March 10, 2009
I'm not going to go in detail on this movie like most reviews, cause this movie is so terrible that it doesn't need to take anymore time from my life. Quite plain and simple, pass on this movie. It sucked BAD! I can't explain how awful it was. It seemed like a k-mart version Super Bad. No wait, more like a Dollar Store version. Just plain crap. I gave it one star, because I couldn't give it 0 stars. It's so bad, it's not even pirate worthy.

Horrific, absolutely horrific, February 6, 2009
College has to be the worst movie ever created. To take a movie that plays off the stereotypes that have been used time and time again is one thing, but to do so and make the movies a millions times worse, that's just sickening.
This movie has virtually no plot, except showing college to be one huge party with nudity, alcohol, cursing, and debauchery and about nothing else. The acting, I mean look at the names, is terrible. The driving force behind this film is ultimately shock factor; that is, where can we place the vomiting scenes and excessive male nudity to receive the most number of cringes. I don't think I laughed during this movie, but I did cringe a lot.
The underlying romance is completely ludacris and bears no resemblance to real life. Three high school guys go down to a campus and score three college girls, like that happens every weekend.
Some movies are bad but acceptable because you're just looking for cheap laughs. This isn't one of them. This movie is so bad, in fact, that you will be hard pressed to find yourself laughing once. Unless you're one of those people that still finds the inaccurate stereotypes of frat boys, sorority girls, nerds, punks, and fat kids funny, in which case, you'd be too young to buy this movie anyway.
