Pretty Good

Absolutely the worst movie.

I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

(oh Lord, take me back to college, right now, oh please God, make me 20 again, I beg you, do it, I'll just close my eyes, and when I open them, right now, I'll be there, ty, I owe you one)I love Revenge of the Nerds!! I'm a super nerd! I'm a bit of a jock, well, not really a jock just a real, real, incredibly really good athlete, ok, a jock, but, being a nerd, is 700 BILLION times better than being a jock, trust me, aside from the whole 'getting laid' aspects of jocking vs. the whole 'not getting laid' qualifications of nerding. Lol!!!Revenge of the Nerds starts off slow, but once the Nerds move into their Tri-Lamb Frat house it is nonstop uncontrollable hilariousness...'til the end! A great group of misfits makes up the Nerds with a terrifically well cast cast.Revenge of the Nerds is a Beautiful!, inspirational and HILARIOUS comedy that's a really good movie too! It's all about sex!!!....and college life and love.The Nerds' big party with all the sweet nerdy girls and the Lambdas is by far the best part of RotN. Lol!!....those party scenes are so funny omg hahahaha especially when Thriller kicks in!!! lol! The robot is classic!! The Nerds are great. I love what's her face from Valley Girl, Michelle Meyrink! I knew that, see, I told you I was. I really love how the nerds all get laid at the party. I really do.The Nerds infiltrating the popular girls Sorority house is funny, but way more so, it really makes me super horny thanks to what's her face, Julia Montgomery. I didn't know her name, I do now. Julia is so epically gorgeous in this, and so super hot! (Uhh wow awesome) Private School, this, & Animal house = Sorority girl house heaven/I love how the Nerds stay up and watch their surveillance video of the Pies all night long! Lol!This is one of my favorite comedies, easily. It is not sub-par material. The end's good & the characters are great! (esp. Booger and Ogre!!!!)"It's close to miiidnight...."

Revenge of the Nerds is a decent movie with a fairly well developed storyline and a good comedic cast. It certainly has lots of great moments, there are many scenes that had me laughing out loud, it's characters all have very different personalities which makes for some terrific moments, the soundtrack is also fantastic, offering some pure eighties music. The film has the same problem several films from the eighties have, and that's that they forget about the story or set up of the movie on several occasions and just get carried away with themselves making jokes and offering slapstick images for the audience, this can get irritating at times as it will leave you wanting the story to move forward some more, also because of the constant comedy, it becomes hard to care and sympathise with the main characters. It's called Revenge of the Nerds, but I don't feel like the "revenge" is ever fully realised, even the ending dosen't offer a complete closure to the story and let the audience know that the jocks have gotten their just desserts and the nerds now reign superior, it wasn't a clear or fitting finale. It's quite funny at times, but I don't think Revenge of the Nerds deserves to be considered one of the great comedy movies of the eighties, but it is certainly worth the watch if you ever see it on television. A group of nerds decide to take on their colleges obnoxious sporting types. Best Performance: Robert Carradine

Long before the lovable cast of THE BIG BANG THEORY made being a Nerd fashionable, there was REVENGE OF THE NERDS. At times it plays out like a straightforward drama (which is one of its many strengths), but make no mistake about it: there's humor galore. The contretemps begin when a group of jocks burn down their frat house and immediately commandeer the Nerd house. The Nerds are forced to sleep on cots in the gymnasium. "It's like we're refugees from a war," bemoans child prodigy Harold Wormser. Before long, our heroes find themselves looking for a fraternity that will sponsor them in a bid to have a say in their own fate. They end up approaching the Lambda Lambda Lambdas- headed by U.N. Jefferson (the underrated- and under-utilized- Bernie Casey). Best line: when Lewis Skolnick (Robert Carradine) explains to his girlfriend why Nerds are so much better in bed than jocks: "All jocks ever think about is sports. All WE ever think about is sex."

It has been 30 years ,since the movie has released and it shows. This movie feels like a 1980s movie in each and every way.And the fact that since that since the emergence of The Big Bang Theory and Joss Whedon, nerds have become a part of mainstream. Thus, the movie shows how much time has changed. Despite these facts, the movie has aged very well.For a guy who was not present in 1980s and watched for the first time in 2014, I must say that movie has aged pretty well.After "Animal House" became a hit in 1978, many R-rated sex comedy came in 1980s like Porky, Risky Business and Fast Times At Ridgemont High. They were quite funny, but sometimes they took themselves seriously at a time. Seriousness worked flawlessly in Risky Business, but it felt mismatched in Porky and Fast Times at Ridgemont High. This is not the case here. Sure it has all the typical T&A Teen Sex Gross-out ingredient like sex jokes, men peeking at naked girls, drugs, booze, partying, F- word, toilet humor and of course gratuitous frontal nudity,but the fact that movie never takes itself seriously sets it apart. The director of movie knew he was not making another "The Graduate", but a very stupid comedy and he did not hide this fact with serious topics like racism(Porky) or abortion(Fast Times).The plot is very simple and you can guess from it's title. The title clearly specifies that nerds take revenge from jocks. Nerd represent nerd and jocks represent jocks. Nothing symbolic here. One of the best thing about movie is it 's character. Just like the film itself characters are slapstick and cartoonish. For e.g.; there is a character named Ogre, who behaves like Marvel superhero Hulk. Only difference is that Hulk is green skinned and has more hair. But the character that steals the show here is Booger. His role here is to be disgusting. Be it burping,eating dirty things or as you can guess from his name taking out his booger ! Booger is played by same guy who played Tom Cruise 's best friend in Risky Business and gave what the f--- speech.The movie is often accused of it's misogyny, but I am at movie 's defense here since a) movie is equal offender. It offends every one . Be it male or female,nerds or jocks, gays or rebels. b)girls were also nasty towards "nerds" and thus nerds had lame excuse to take revenge and c) it was 1980s. It was in trend for movie of similar genre to be sexist. At least it is not MASH.
