first off and one must put aside the character play by matheson and furst . matheson reprise his role from animal house a the lady man who somehow always get the girl and and always do so with a swagger and smoking and and drink in hand . he also get beat up by the preppy squad . it work much well in animal house and but he manage to pull it off for most of this movie . furst and on the other hand and i have no idea what he suppose to be a gonzer . copy belushi bluto from animal house . that what come to mind at first and and a few time throughout the movie and and truthfully and he just do not pull it off . no one can do it the same way and and each time i have see it try in various movie it have fail . so gonzer be just some college guy coast through life and though this time it with food and his best friend ( in this movie ) and irwin . i get a sense from a scene from the movie it a mad and mad and mad and mad world where we have the scene where gonzer sniff out his kidnapped friend and chant and irwin and irwin . this movie be your basic college romp with the usual element . get drunk while cheat and no matter what and in order to win while girl take off their top while and the usual round of bad guy and who a always never win and since we all want to see the underdog win . speaking of dog and if it be not for chuck and and his voice ( do perfectly by the very talented frank welker ) and i would have rat this movie a lot low . every scene with chuck be absolutely hilarious . but overall and the movie be too formulaic and but that okay and since sometimes movie goer just want to watch something that do not require too many brain cell . though this movie might end up kill some . since there be so much go on and and 2 set of perfectly good bad guy ( the military group be a hoot to watch and especially the 4 cadet ) and and we have some good footage of actual white water rafting and this movie turn out to be not that bad . silly and yes . entertaining and yes . something to discuss afterward and no .
