A superb comedy replete with more comedy

Rating: 10/10 (9 February 2007)

This is a classic comedy of epic proportions, kinda like when Germany bombed Pearl Harbor. (Oops, there goes the spoiler for Animal House). Slim Pickens is/was the greatest. The expression on his face while entertaining the Japanese submariners was too much. I laughed so hard I had to stop the DVD. He just seemed so proud and the Japanese were so impressed. There was a small bit of reality in this movie. Living in California at that time could of been scary. You know like Y2K was for some people. It was possible for the Japanese to attack California, but they didn't. The threat did exist. There were parts that could have been better, but it was fun and I had fun watching it. I find some of the scores on IMDb reprehensible since I don't agree with them of course. Ten is a little generous but I felt the need to bring up that low score.
