meatball be an ode to summer camp . those of u who get to go to camp will see many of the scene a we remember or wish they could have be . bill murray play senior boy counselor tripper harrison and who really run the camp . he remind u of the funny cool staff member who everyone love . young camper gravitate toward him and if he speak to you and you feel like you be family . this be one of murray best role . he drive the film with his one liner and ad libs . chris makepeace play rudy and the loner camper who be take under tripper wing and break out of his shell . the rest of the camper and staff in the film be excellent as well . the overall theme of the movie be the underdog overcoming obstacle to finally win . from rudy to spaz to the camp and even to tripper himself and the underdog of the film be the star . the movie have heart . the film be fun and funny without be cruel or oversexed a some teen movie be today . the cast look and act like real people . the comedy and heart draw you in to the point that at the end and just like at camp and you be sad to leave . in my summer camp experience we have underwear run up flag pole and mystery meat and try to sneak a peek into the girl cabin and the lunatic with the hook stories around the camp fire and and move sleep people out of their cabin and put them elsewhere . but we also have a dedicate camp staff guide u to be the best we could be . my favorite scene be the cit overnight when they be canoe across the lake sing a goofy song . the one line that crack me up every time be when tripper be announce light out the evening before parent day and he end tomorrow be parent day and and you must look rest or morty will be send to the state penitentiary .
