Watch Fraternity Vacation For Free

Too much of everything

The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

The story-telling is good with flashbacks.The film is both funny and heartbreaking. You smile in a scene and get a soulcrushing revelation in the next.

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

A nerd (Stephen Geoffrey's) befriends his two frat brothers when his father offers them his condo for a week in beautiful Palm Springs. He also offers other benefits if they can manage to help his son score a girl. There is only one problem. They run into two guys from a rival fraternity and make bets they ultimately wind up regretting. What's with the deceivingly low rating? It's not a great film or anything, but for a time period where sex comedies were coming out left and right, I felt this was actually a fairly amusing film. It has everything I adored about the 80's; sex, boobs, great looking woman, goofy gags, and hilarious characters that want nothing but sex. Nothing took itself all that seriously for the most part and why should it? It knows what it is, and it knows it's target audience. Lighten up guys. I got quite a few laughs from the utterly likable Stephen Geoffreys. He made the perfect underdog in this film as the lovable geek. Many people may know him as Evil Ed from Fright Night, but this performance was a lot of fun as well. I'm not saying it belongs there, just that it was fun. Every sex comedy needs a hero we can empathize with while we embark on a journey with him. Stephen Geoffrey's was the perfect hero. Tim Robbins (Yes. THE Tim Robbins) seemed to be having a blast, and I had fun watching him. I don't think he looks back at this movie fondly, though. Sheree J. Wilson plays the role of the object of every man's desire adequately. Amanda Bearse is fun as the lying, scheming love interest of Geoffrey's, whilst John Vernon is a hoot as the overly protective dad. Final Thoughts: 4.2… Really? It deserves to be at least in the mid 5's guys. I really don't know what people expect when it comes to movies sometimes. What did they honestly think they were gonna see when they pulled the trigger on watching this? It's a fun movie with some goofy laughs, and sometimes that's just what I need.6/10

I wouldn't say this was the best movie ever made, but it is highly watchable. Basic plot: Tim Robbins ("Shawshank Redemption") and Cameron Dye (...don't really know) go on a free-ride vacation to Palm Springs with nerdy frat pledge Stephen Geoffreys ("Evil Ed from "Fright Night") in the hopes of partying and getting laid. Meet Hot Chick, check. Meet rival frat boys, check. The 'bet' about who gets to nail Hot Chick first, check. Boobs and beer, check. Feel-good ending where everyone becomes friends, check. Typical 80's Sex Comedy Formula.Good points: Seeing Tim Robbins before he made it big was interesting. The Hot Chick wasn't the stereotypical dumb bimbo, also refreshing. Lastly, Stephen Geoffreys was adorable as the good-hearted nerd Wendell. Always had a soft spot for that actor; he plays downtrodden nerds/geeks/dorks with such verve. All the more surreal when you think about his future career in, erm, adult cinema...not that there's anything wrong with it! (couldn't help the "Seinfeld" reference there!)Bad points: the MUSIC! I know 80's cheese is 80's cheese, but this was particularly bad. Shocking that it was Brad Fiedel that did the music for this movie, when you compare to his later work in "Fright Night" and the first 2(or 3?) "Terminator" movies. Truly iconic scores in those flicks...

This film is hilarious. 2 jocks are duped into teaming up with a school nerd for a favour to the nerds dad. They see a hot chick and compete with the rival rich jocks to woo her.I particularly enjoyed the part in which one of the rich jocks parachutes into the swimming area of the fraternity holiday resort to promote his book and generally show off to impress the hot chick. The nerd ends up shagging some chick and all is well.Watch this movie if you get a kick out of cheesy 80's flicks.also keep an eye out for a young "tim robbins" of shawshank redemption fame.

This is definitely one of them guilty pleasure kind of movies. It's one of them movies that I watched very often when I was just a little kid and it was first debuting on HBO. Most kids didn't get to watch this kind of stuff when they were just six-years-old, so I was fortunate. Of course, I didn't really understand a lot of humor and mostly what I took from it was seeing naked girls for the first time.I recently found the movie on video from back in the day, so I just finished watching it for the first time in years. I'm now 22, and it makes a lot more sense than it did when I first saw it about 14 years ago, especially the line that Wendell uses to win over Nicole. The one nude scene early in the movie gave me a whole new kind of feeling as well. :)After seeing Tim Robbins in movies such as Bull Durham, The Shawshank Redepmtion, and the Hudsucker Proxy; it's amusing to see him play the role of a college party animal named Mother. Some of the actors do seem a little old and overdressed for spring break, but it's still pretty funny and worth watching if you have some free time and feel like reflecting on the '80s. The movie has too much sentimental value for me to down it, so I give it two big thumbs up.
