Only a poster of This Is Spinal Tap on the dormitory walls will remind anyone that this movie and that one were directed by the same man, Rob Reiner. That other movie must indeed have been a very special match-up of people and idea. This, on the other hand, is nothing very special. There is some good writing and playing within the self-imposed limits, but those limits are hardly wider than the horizons of weekly television. The "good playing" by John Cusack as a concupiscent college freshman is admittedly derivative of Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, John Belushi, Dustin Hoffman, et al., but after all, a lot of college freshmen in real life must draw on the same sources. With Daphne Zuniga. (1985) — Duncan Shepherd
This movie is not currently in theaters.
