Chuck Vinch stall writer on mov iks cd rated pg-13 �~1/2 Kaaa must sea aaa Worth your time a passable entertainment a a coming soon to a video outlet near you and you can wait pc desperately wants to be an animal House for the �?T90s. But despite a few memorably lowbrow moments it ultimately lacks the courage of its convictions a not to mention a world class physical comedian in John Belushi s league. If Ever there was a Bubble that. Needed bursting its the phenomenon of political correctness the kind of social development that makes Sharp satirists salivate unfortunately writers Adam Leff Jed Zak Penn and director Hart Bochner Are Dull. They re not politically incorrect enough. Pc is port Chester University a fictional Connecticut school where almost everyone belongs to cliques like the a two Myniss a who rail against the Quot Phail Cracy a or the vegetarians who condemn eating meat. There a a group of stoners As Well As a Bunch of computer nerds and the usual minority groups. Then there a the pit a genially grungy coed group House that is the schools last bastion of free thought and unlimited partying. As the film opens the pits nominal Leader Droz Jeremy Nivenis aghast at having to Squire pre freshman Tom Lawrence Chris Young on an orientation visit around Campus. But soon enough Young Tom is eagerly taking part in such shenanigans As raining chunks of raw hamburger Down on an anti beef rally. Eventually the plot which is lifted almost whole from animal House kicks into gear. Like Dean Wormer before her Dean Garcia Thompson Jessica Walter is secretly in league with the whitest Guys on Campus a fraternity of uptight preppie led by the snide Rand David Spade of saturday night live with the Dean s Blessing the frat whose name is a profane twist on Yale a secret Quot Skull and Bones society seeks to evict the pits inhabitants. Rand who roomed with Droz As a freshman and still carries the psychological scars four years water considers it his personal Mission to see Droz get the Boot. When the Dean presents the pit dwellers with a Bill of More than $7,000 for damage to their House Droz sets out to organize a Mammoth party to Rise the funds. What he does no to know is that its a setup. While he and his Crew Are not yet on Quot double secret pro Bation a they be caused enough trouble so that one More pit style Blowout will be sufficient to bring Down the a. The script moves in fits and starts never achieving the kind of raging subversive Ness that made animal House such a classic. Lets face i tossing meat out a window does not compare to Bluto Blu Tarsky imitating a pimple being popped. The cast is appealing but forgettable. All the  including Piven so seem to be bit parts which Means that no one really stands out. Even Tom the Story a supposed catalyst gets lost in the shuffle for Large chunks of screen time. A. A. That a not to say there Arentt laughs Drozs Friend Gutter Jon Favreau clearly the films Bluto Wannabe gets a few of them. On a Mission to buy Beer for the pit party he stops by the stoners House the Toothy Guy with the stringy Blond hair is Jake Busey son of Gary and sucks Way too much Bong. He then zones out and dreams that he a testifying before the Senate judiciary committee. Using actual footage of the Anita Hill Clarence Thomas hearings director Bochner crafts a seamlessly edited scene that is without doubt the films satiric High Point. But too Many other scenes Peter out aimlessly or never get going at All. College students May find things to like about this film but the rest of us Are Apt to be disappointed pc gets Ivi  12 sunday May 15, 1994
