Last night (1/23) my wife and I watched National Lampoon’s Van Wilder. It stars Ryan Reynolds as the title character Van Wilder, a college senior who has been at the school for 7 years , and wants to continue to party, so he keeps flunking to stay IN school! It’s absolutley highlarious for teens and older. The antics that happen in his college dorms are so funny, and it had me laughing the entire movie. It is an early 2000’s comedy, so keep that in mind if you’ve never seen this movie. Van Wilder as a character is a lot like Deadpool. Actually, the more I think about it, Ryan Reynolds plays his “Van Wilder” character in pretty much every movie from this point on in his career. A lot of Van Wilder references happen throughout his entire career. So was Deadpool Van Wilder the whole time? Or was Van Wilder always meant to be Deadpool!? WHO KNOWS!??!!! But it works, and that’s what counts. It’s a solid movie, and a fun revisit.
I give this one 3 1/2 stars out of 5
