Director Phillips confesses to frat membership in his youth, and even made a documentary on the subject. So why is this not funnier or more outrageous?
Peter Travers
Only fitfully funny, except when Ferrell is onscreen -- then you won't stop laughing.
Ed Park
A flatland of lowest-common- denominated retro-collegiate wackiness.
Richard Roeper
This is a raucous frat-school comedy that's dopey, degrading and disgusting -- and consistently hilarious.
Desson Thomson
An extremely funny and, of course, socially unredeemable comedy.
Rita Kempley
This movie's enough to give you a big fat Greek dreading.
