As he sets foot in the campus as a cocky freshman, Van is shocked to discover that strict Dean Reardon is ruling the place with an iron fist, restricting alcohol, drugs, and all things sexy. Now, Van must put his charm and wits to good use, and do everything in his power to escape from the dean's ROTC program, and get Kaitlin, the hottest girl in school.

User reviews 33 Review. Top review. This imitation of the original formula doesn't taste as good. This movie tries to follow the format of the original film. Bennett even kind of looks like Ryan Reynolds. But generally, this flick doesn't do it as good as the original. Some of the jokes are kind of funny, but most are tepid or even complete knockoffs of old jokes I've heard before.
While the original used eccentric characters and outlandish situations as springboards for humor, this one just goes deep into Bizzaro World a college run by its ROTC director, who has posted "No Partying" and "No Kissing" signs, and can involuntarily enroll students in ROTC?
Bennett decently mimicked Reynolds, but he didn't have the same charisma. Cavallari was charismatic, though, and I liked her as the love interest. Meredith Giangrande was downright sexy as forbidden- fruit Eve. If you love being grossed out, this film ups the ante from the first one on the disgusting factor, although that's not particularly my thing.
I do have to say, however, that the soft-porn aspects of this film are better than the original. There are scenes involving girls with vibrators, and a sex-ed class that illustrates intriguing positions although with clothes on, but still , which may almost make you forget you're watching a comedy.

User reviews Review. Top review. Fun and entertaining - just remember to disengage your brain. I generally hate these teen sex comedies and I approached "Van Wilder" with hesitation, but I actually found it to be quite entertaining and humorous if you're in the right mood, I suppose. Ryan Reynolds doing a great Chevy Chase impersonation is a guy in his late 20s who has been at college for eight years and still doesn't have a graduation in sight.
His father, a rich politician played by Tim Matheson , finally decides to cut off his son's money and as a result, Van has to think of a way to come up with enough cash to stay in school. Pretty soon Van becomes a party planner and uses his knowledge on partying to throw great ones for nerds. He makes money off of it and his business soon becomes quite lucrative. If you like National Lampoon humor, you may like this. If you don't, you probably won't. I gave up on National Lampoon a long time ago but this is one of their better efforts in recent years.
Don't get me wrong, it's not a great movie; but I found Reynolds who seems to pick up a lot of flak to be quite funny and Matheson and other ex-Lampoon star cameos were amusing. Recommended for those who can enjoy stupid humor. If you liked "Dumb and Dumber," you'll probably enjoy this. MovieAddict Nov 30, FAQ 1.
