    Bought this for $5 at Target during college, but this was nowhere near the college experience I had. Only a couple of jokes have aged poorly, but it still doesn’t take away from the hilarious movie that this is. John Belushi and co. were great as the Delta house. Seeing young versions of legends like Karen Allen, Kevin Bacon and Donald Sutherland make this movie as iconic as the quotable lines

    Going to college in the 60s seems like such a strange time. There’s almost zero school time shown, but imagine having to write everything and being contacted through land lines? No thanks!

    Definitely not Bong’s best movie, but still enjoyable. As always with his work, political subtext is obvious throughout the film. Ruffalo’s role as the pretentious leader of the space expedition shows some similarities to modern politicians (not so subtle, Bong!)

    I’ve been itching to watch a western movie since recently playing the Red Dead Redemption series. Instead of going with a traditional setting, I chose something that’s avoided me for far too long, a more modern western movie made by some of my favorite directors. Man I was blown away.

    Phenomenal performances all around, but I am blown away by Javier Bardem. Finally glad I watched this film to see his award-winning performance.

    You’re telling me this is made by the same guys that made The Big Lebowski and O Brother, Where Art Thou?
