Watch Old School For Free

If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties. It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.

This is one of the movies that started off the "Frat Pack". Director Todd Phillips made a hell of a comedy movie. Although not consistently funny, the movie does have its iconic moments that can be compared to later comedies.It had funny characters, great chemistry between the actors, quotable lines, a true classic comedic gold.Sean William Scott's cameo was one of the funniest scenes in the film, it would be awesome to see him more often in more "Frat Pack" movies.Will Ferrell was definitely the star of the film and had the best scenes. One of his funniest performances yet.I cant really say much about the film, the movie speaks for itself. If you haven't watched it yet, then what are you waiting for?

I can't believe that people that are older than the age of 18 actually liked this movie. It is moronic, childish, and immature. Will Ferrell does his usual SNL acting, which wasn't to good in the first place. Everyone else seemed to be in this movie because they wanted the paycheck. Therefore, didn't take this job seriously and did not do the best job they could have. I think that everyone in this movie was trying to pretend that they were actually younger and more immature than they actually where. Adding to the actual negativitity of this movie. I don't know how to explain how terrible this movie is without actually using bad language and added swear words. The best way to describe it is that this movie is for the very immature and self centered losers who peaked in high school and couldn't climb out of being a kid and actually become a REAL Adult who is successful personally as parents and REAL Adults. I am very disappointed. Unless you are a 15 year old male kid then I suggest that you keep away from this movie.

Old School is a comedy that stars stars Luke Wilson, Vince Vaughn, and Will Ferrell as three thirty-somethings who seek to re-live their college days by starting a fraternity, and the tribulations they encounter in doing so in order to avoid the problems of the present.The story was written by Court Crandall and directed by Todd Phillips.Old School has a premise wherein three men relive their carefree college years by killing off as many brain cells as possible in this movie. Mitch returns home from a less-than-pleasant business trip one evening to discover his wife, Heidi is involved in a threesome with two blindfolded strangers. Feeling less than welcome at home after this, Mitch rents a house near the campus of a nearby college.Two of his old college buddies,Beanie and Frank, stop by to cheer him up. They soon become regular guests at Mitch's place, despite the fact that Frank only recently wed Marissa,while Beanie and his wife, Lara, are busy with two kids. Beanie decides to throw a housewarming party for Mitch, and since Beanie sells audio equipment for a living, he's able to trick out the big bash with a massive PA system and an appearance by Snoop Dogg. Mitch soon finds he's the not-entirely-willing proprietor of the school's leading party spot, which raises the ire of Mr.Pritchard, a dean at the college who was the target of Mitch, Frank, and Beanie's abuse when they were all students.Mr.Pritchard arranges to have Mitch's neighborhood zoned into a student housing district, but Beanie and Frank respond by forming a fraternity and making Mitch's home their headquarters. Mitch, however, is not enthusiastic about the idea, especially as he's trying to impress Nicole, a beautiful divorcée who is less than enchanted with Frank and Beanie's "care-free" lifestyle. Old School is an definitely an over-the-top comedy that is not totally hilarious although it had some funny moments.The theme about escapism was somewhat not really that impressed me about the movie since the premise about the trio of buds who yearn to go back to the past in order to avoid the present only brings them to more problems.Aside from that,most of the humor involved is that's somewhere below the belt.And most of all,it became an exercise of laughs,whether funny or not,in the course of the film.Overall,Old School is a comedy that tries to help you escape from the present troubles of life but it nevertheless fails to deliver.

"Old School" is a somewhat funny comedy, in the vein of "Animal House", in which a group of middle aged men start a college fraternity in order to escape the drudgery of their middle class, white collar world.The film stars Vince Vaughn, Luke Wilson and Will Ferrell, but possesses few jokes and little insight. What humour there is comes mostly from Vaughn and Ferrell. Ferrell plays his usual slow-witted, goofy, overly sincere gentle giant, and Vaughn's a deadpan quip-trader. Most of the film is slow, dull and plot-heavy, but these two make it bearable.Unlike most "teen sex comedies", this one is aimed squarely at older men. It's a "turn back the clock" fantasy, but one carefully designed to negate any of the unseemly aspects such a fantasy may entail. And so our heroes sleep with the bosses daughter and teenage girls, but it's okay because our heroes were unconscious and "she" wanted it. Likewise, our heroes dump their wives, but it's okay, because it is "she" who wanted to end things and their relationship wouldn't have worked anyway. And so on and so on.7/10 – See "Frat House", a documentary by Todd Phillips, or Frederick Wiseman's "High School" and "High School 2".
