Amazon.com Almost 10 years before playing a by-the-books college dean in Old School, Jeremy Piven was King Slob of an underground fraternity in this frequently amusing cult comedy. Piven is Droz, who introduces nervous freshman Chris Young to his eclectic frat-mates (which include Jon Favreau) while steering clear of vicious prepster David Spade and malevolent school head Jessica Walter. Piven's off-the-cuff humor and the capable cast help anchor the film's gleefully anarchic tone, which is refreshingly free of the cheap scatological gags that usually sink collegiate comedies. The result is a breezy, likable comedy that should please fans of cinematic campus capers. 20th Century Fox's surprisingly extra-laden DVD includes fullscreen and widescreen versions of the film, as well as commentaries by a typically wry Piven and director Hart Bochner; a short behind-the-scenes featurette; a video for Mudhoney's cover of Elvis Costello's "Pump It Up," which is featured on the soundtrack, and the original theatrical trailer. --Paul Gaita

One of the Best Movies You Have Never Seen September 13, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This movie takes a hilarious look at the PC (politically correct) movement that began to plague college campuses in the late 80s to early 90s. Jeremy Piven is at his best in this movie as the slacker leader of a bunch of college misfits. The story centers around a 'pre-frosh' that visits the PCU campus and has his ideas and expectations of what college life will be shattered during one crazy weekend in the 'Pit'. This movie has queitly become a college campus cult classic much like its predecessor, 'Animal House'. Highly recommended for a good laugh.
PCU is a cult classic! May 21, 2008 After watching an old VCR taped version of PCU one night, we decided to purchase the DVD. We love it! Like anything on DVD, the clarity and color quality alone make it worth the purchase. The commentary from Jeremy Pivens was a fun way to watch it. If you somehow missed this movie before, it's required viewing to anyone that went to college in the 1990s. It resonates with generation Xers.
classic jeremy piven January 28, 2008
one of the best jeremy piven movie i have ever seen. its an instant classic - a must buy
Excellent Movie--best unknown college film November 1, 2007 This simplay is one of the best college films (comedies) that has been made and everyone who loves Animal House, Van Wilder, or Revenge of the Nerds should watch this film. In my opinion, it's right up there with Animal House as one of the best ever, and will have former college students laughing like crazy as they remember all the most insane parts of political correctness gone amuck.
College flick with a great cast October 27, 2007 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
If you like politically incorrect, and you like college movies, this one is for you. It also includes a killer cast of Jeremy Piven, Jon Favreau, David Spade, and even George Clinton!! This isn't a cookie-cutter college movie, it has it's own style.
