Old enough to be a classic comedy.

It's hard to believe that it took me 25 years to get around to seeing "Caddyshack", and only because I am scheduled to caddy next week for the Spirit International amateur golf championships. I need to see how it is done!
There are several stories going on. One is Ty Webb (Chevy Chase) who is the best golfer in the club but has dropped out of competitive golf and doesn't even keep score anymore. But ask his caddy, and he'll tell you Ty probably shot a 65 or 66 his last time out.
Then there is the loud, obnoxious Al Czervik (Rodney Dangerfield in a great performance), a businessman who has the largest and heaviest golf bag in the sport, who doesn't shy away from talking loudly while someone is preparing to make a stroke, and who eggs others into a match for $$Thousands.
Then there is the issue of the little critters that are digging up the golf course, and dim-witted maintenance guy Carl (Bill Murray) is given the order to get rid of them. His efforts end up virtually destroying the golf course.
Overall a funny movie, but I would not put it up there with the best comedies of all time. More of a curiosity for the characters.
