One of the most overrated comedies of all time

Rating: 3/10 (7 January 2003)

It is not just that there is no story in this film - lots of comedies have done fine without that - but there are very few real laughs. I think it is incredible that such a meager script could end up getting made. In the 21st century, a film like Caddyshack - or even a comedy a level or two above it - would be painfully dull. The really amazing thing is that two of the finest comedic actors of the time, i.e. Chevy Chase and Bill Murray, fail to save the day. Chevy Chase, however, is a redeeming feature, whereas Rodney Dangerfield is even cornier than usual. I rate it a 3 out of 10.
