Van Wilder

Peter Bradshaw: Ho hum. Another week, another grossout teen comedy
  
  


Ho hum. Another week, another grossout teen comedy. Campus setting? Check. Bare breasts? Check. Outtake bloopers? Check. Tara Reid cast as blonde uber-babe with bags under her eyes like Barry Norman, looking like she needs a few early nights? Check. Yucky scenes with dog? Check, check, check. I laughed once, I admit - jadedly, despairingly - when party animal Van Wilder (Ryan Reynolds) receives an encomium from his nerdy sidekick, an Indian exchange student given unprecedented access to hot babes: "Van, you have given me things that at home I could only dream about - while masturbating in my father's woodshed."
