Van Wilder Ratings & Reviews
Common Sense Media
Nell Minow
The grossest, most disgusting humor imaginable.
Variety
Scott Foundas
Strangely likable and only about half as puerile as the average MTV reality series.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Wilmington
An unabashedly bad movie full of cliches, claptrap, fairly good rock 'n' roll and stomach-turning gross-out gags.
Ebert & Roeper
Richard Roeper
... Tara Reid plays a college journalist, but she looks like the six-time winner of the Miss Hawaiian Tropic Pageant, so I don't know what she's doing in here ...
Austin Chronicle
Marc Savlov
Bluto Blutarsky, we miss you.
Associated Press
Christy Lemire
It has all the obligatory gross-out jokes you'd expect. But for every stupid gag involving half-naked women or uncontrollable bodily functions, there's a clever, laugh-out-loud line that sneaks up on you.
Washington Post
Michael O'Sullivan
Execrable.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
It's a tasteless, tacky movie full of cheap T&A.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
When it runs out of ways to be funny, Van Wilder resorts to schmaltz.
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
This is the sort of low-grade dreck that usually goes straight to video --with a lousy script, inept direction, pathetic acting, poorly dubbed dialogue and murky cinematography, complete with visible boom mikes.
Boxoffice Magazine
Tim Cogshell
This a movie wherein Tara Reid plays the 'smart girl' -- that alone has got to be worth the price of a ticket.
Boston Globe
Loren King
[Reynold's] boyish, sweet-natured comic appeal makes ''Van Wilder'' better than it has a right to be.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
Laughter for me was such a physical impossibility during National Lampoon's Van Wilder that had I not been pledged to sit through the film, I would have lifted myself up by my bootstraps and fled.
USA Today
Claudia Puig
The movie ends with outtakes in which most of the characters forget their lines and just utter 'uhhh,' which is better than most of the writing in the movie.
Arizona Republic
Bill Muller
This movie, a certain scene in particular, brought me uncomfortably close to losing my lunch.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Carrie Rickey
Unofficially, National Lampoon's Van Wilder is Son of Animal House. Officially, it is twice as bestial but half as funny.
New York Times
Dave Kehr
What's lacking is the sense of structure that might have made Van Wilder more than a meandering succession of random gags.
Detroit Free Press
John Monaghan
Van Wilder has a built-in audience, but only among those who are drying out from spring break and are still unconcerned about what they ingest.
Dallas Morning News
Gary Dowell
The only thing keeping it from being a complete waste of time is the charismatic performance of Mr. Reynolds.
