DVD Reviews of PCU

DVD Review: Best and most relivent college movie in years!
Summary: 5 Stars

I first saw this movie on HBO in summer 1995. I didn't remember it ever having been in theaters, but the tagline on Prevue Network was "an Animal House for the 90's" and I love Animal House, so I decided to give it a try. I found it to be even better than Animal House, due to being more relevant to the times, plus just a good movie all-around. Very little bad language, no sexual situations, and a fun, lighthearted message about going against the flow and being yourself. Modern college movies could, and should, take notes. THIS is how you make a comedy.

Two thumbs up!

DVD Review: One of the Best Movies You Have Never Seen
Summary: 5 Stars

This movie takes a hilarious look at the PC (politically correct) movement that began to plague college campuses in the late 80s to early 90s. Jeremy Piven is at his best in this movie as the slacker leader of a bunch of college misfits. The story centers around a 'pre-frosh' that visits the PCU campus and has his ideas and expectations of what college life will be shattered during one crazy weekend in the 'Pit'. This movie has queitly become a college campus cult classic much like its predecessor, 'Animal House'. Highly recommended for a good laugh.

DVD Review: PCU is a cult classic!
Summary: 4 Stars

After watching an old VCR taped version of PCU one night, we decided to purchase the DVD. We love it! Like anything on DVD, the clarity and color quality alone make it worth the purchase. The commentary from Jeremy Pivens was a fun way to watch it. If you somehow missed this movie before, it's required viewing to anyone that went to college in the 1990s. It resonates with generation Xers.

DVD Review: classic jeremy piven

DVD Review: Excellent Movie--best unknown college film
Summary: 5 Stars

This simplay is one of the best college films (comedies) that has been made and everyone who loves Animal House, Van Wilder, or Revenge of the Nerds should watch this film. In my opinion, it's right up there with Animal House as one of the best ever, and will have former college students laughing like crazy as they remember all the most insane parts of political correctness gone amuck.

Description of PCU

Welcome to Port Chester University, where the Politically Correct go head-to-head with the Party Animals in the rowdiest college comedy since "Animal House." With all the new social rules on political correctness, the only fun place left on campus is The Pit, an outlawed underground fraternity house. Here, no behavior is too offensive and no lifestyle too bizarre. These fraternity brothers and sisters are lazy, lawless and loud - and determined to turn PCU back into the party school it was meant to be!
Almost 10 years before playing a by-the-books college dean in Old School, Jeremy Piven was King Slob of an underground fraternity in this frequently amusing cult comedy. Piven is Droz, who introduces nervous freshman Chris Young to his eclectic frat-mates (which include Jon Favreau) while steering clear of vicious prepster David Spade and malevolent school head Jessica Walter. Piven's off-the-cuff humor and the capable cast help anchor the film's gleefully anarchic tone, which is refreshingly free of the cheap scatological gags that usually sink collegiate comedies. The result is a breezy, likable comedy that should please fans of cinematic campus capers. 20th Century Fox's surprisingly extra-laden DVD includes fullscreen and widescreen versions of the film, as well as commentaries by a typically wry Piven and director Hart Bochner; a short behind-the-scenes featurette; a video for Mudhoney's cover of Elvis Costello's "Pump It Up," which is featured on the soundtrack, and the original theatrical trailer. --Paul Gaita
