I was a little worried about this one. It's been so many years and the movie industry has changed so much I thought they might try to modernize this latest one and ruin it. But I think they did a very good job of keeping it true to it's original form. Watching it you feel like you are 16 again! Ahhh the good ol' days :) So I recommend putting on some acid wash jeans, and feathering you hair to settle in for a new version of an old classic.
The chubby character of course gets picked on, the counselors are jerks, this is all stuff we know, but the big question is where is Angela?!? I can't say because it would be a crime to ruin the surprise. But I can say that my favorite line in the entire movie: "YOUR ASS STINKS!"

I love this type of movie! Don't be fooled by the cast, this is not their typical work. In fact I predict you will be pleasantly surprised by Drake Bell's nudity!!! WooHoo! Kevin Covias was surprisingly good as well. There is one scene where he gets crazy drunk and gets nuts. A far cry from American Idol days, he was great, dare I say a much better actor than singer....sorry AI fans. Nick Zano is a babe as always and Andrew Caldwell who plays the token chubby friend is fall to the floor funny! He's a cross breed of Chris Farley and Dane Cook I swear! I hadn't seen him in anything before this, and I am now a huge fan. College was an awesome racy comedy, if you're a comedy fan, you'll love it.
This amazing film is not just a "chick flick". I think it holds a little something for movie lovers of all kinds. It's an emotional story, that also offers a appropriate humor and edge of your seat suspense. Without giving away any spoilers, I'll just say that the ending is very well done. I was pleased with this film for many reasons, but the talent really stood out as first rate. The actress playing young Diane delivered an unforgettable performance, and as usual Uma Thurman was flawless. Although this film is not here typical genre, her performance was not lacking, in fact I believed she shined. The lesson you take from this film is to not take life as you know it for granted, things can change in a second.
