At an exclusive country club, an ambitious young caddy, Danny Noonan, eagerly pursues a caddy scholarship in hopes of attending college and, in turn, avoiding a job at the lumber yard.

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

Caddyshack is easily the funniest movie out there. From it's hilarious cast to it's many quotable moments, Caddyshack will laughing even after your 10th and counting viewing. Chevy Chase and Bill Murray are quite the comedians but they aren't the star clowns in this circus. The 2 comedians who really make the film memorable are Rodney Dangerfield and Ted Knight. Nothing is funnier then seeing Rodney Dangerfield annoy Ted Knight to death throughout the movie. Whether it be when Rodney wrecks Ted's new boat or when he beats Ted in the golf tournament thanks to a well timed attempted gopher termination. Now don't get me wrong, the Tom and Jerry like humor of Bill Murray and the gopher is very funny and Chevy Chase is a pretty funny guy, but Rodney Dangerfield is the king of comedy. Rest in peace in Jewish heaven Rodney. Caddyshack may not have been the most successful upon release in the 80's but today it is a classic. If you haven't seen Caddyshack yet, well that's just inconceivable.

This is not funny. This is nothing but hype. It is not a 7.4. I give it 4 out of 10 because it is not funny it is boring. The story line is awful. Do not know why this is so popular. Is it because Bill Murray is in it. He is a good actor. But this is not a good movie. A lot of the actors in it has talent. But this movie is a waste of there time. Do not wast your time. And do not wast your money. I can not believe that the same man who wrote Ghostbusters and the same man who directed Ghostbusters wrote and directed this crappy movie. Ghostbusters is a great film. And this is just crap. Do not this movie. This movie has seen were people think a chocolate bar is a piece of pooh. Because it this movie is pooh.

"Caddyshack" was Harold Ramis' first job in the director's chair, and it shows: the tension is slack, there is far too much improvisation, and there's a lack of focus both in narrative and theme. Caddyshack features fine performances from Bill Murray, Rodney Dangerfield, Chevy Chase, Ted Knight, and of course, the gopher. This motion picture is replete with sight gags and one-liners that to this day are repeated by aficionados of clever satire. As far as the improv goes, one gets the sense that Chase, Dangerfield, and even Murray just sort of steamrolled Ramis. I'm sure it was a fun set to be on perhaps too much fun.I can see that the jokes are mostly lame, the subplots are predictable and the acting rarely rises above the adequate. But I still can't help laughing like a drain whenever I watch it. You don't have to be a lowbrow to like this movie, and just because you think it's funny doesn't mean there's something wrong with you. Caddyshack and Animal House withstand the test of time as two of the funniest comedies ever made... and that stands for a lot! Overall rating: 6 out of 10.

I find the po-faced seriousness with which golfers take their sport to be rather funny, so this lampoon of the whole golf industry is a delight to watch. It's a bit of a madcap character piece with lots of offbeat stars interacting and getting involved with one another, and at some moments it's similar to the surreal highlights of AIRPLANE, although it also has that 'frat house party' style atmosphere popular from the early '80s.What I particularly enjoy about CADDYSHACK is that there's no single star. Chevy Chase pops up here and there to deliver some delightful non-sequiters, and Bill Murray steals every scene he's in playing the slow-witted groundsman. My favourite star of all, though, is Rodner Dangerfield, who ably mixes stand-up humour with acting and zings off the screen for all of his five or six moments.CADDYSHACK isn't an entirely successful production, and some elements are rather silly; that stupid gopher, for example, which looks like it belongs in a kid's film. But it's affectionate, it has plenty going on, and Harold Ramis does a very good job of holding it all together as director. The JAWS spoof is a definite highlight.
