A different way of telling a story

The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

Animal House is of course the best college comedy, but this film would come in at a close second. There are plenty of good bits here that will surely make you laugh, but I do believe that the film could have used a bit more work in terms of the script, but as a whole it works and this is among the better comedies of this period. This is one of the few college comedies that has some of the most memorable characters and for that, it remains a classic college comedy that will surely entertain you. The cast make it a fun film to watch and it is definitely a fine 80's comedy that will entertain you from start to finish. The story is simple, yet memorable in the long run.

Revenge of the Nerds is a silly but great film. It paints the typical stereotype of nerds and jocks, and fuels the fire for the never-ending battle between the two types. It brings new light and perspective to the high school drama, and makes it very enjoyable. Curtis Armstrong is the most memorable performance as he has a unique voice and unique delivery of lines. Whilst Revenge of the Nerds is self-explanatory in the title, it provides a unique style of delivering a dish best served cold, and caters to the underdog of the social and school world in a silly and enjoyable manner. It is a feel good story with a predictable ending, but an ending none the less that delivers on the goods.

I really enjoyed the movie but it stereotypically targeted people who are smart, weak and dresses plainly. I mean, anyone can get bullied regardless of what you look like or act towards people especially when it comes with personality. Also for being a bad guy, you most likely be the one who likes doing rough sports and looking down on people. Sure, anyone can be bully especially smart people if they tried! That's just my opinion on movies like this.Moving on, I honestly didn't know John Goodman got involved in this movie and boy, he looked fine for being an average weight man. This was like before he became really heavy but still, he's a great actor! I liked how in the end, Soriaty girl Betty Childs and Lewis finally became a couple. It does remind you of "Grease" a bit except there was no transformation involved unfortunately for Lewis lol! It does prove to you that you can find love regardless of who you are and what you look like!

In 1984's "Revenge of the Nerds" a group of social outcasts at Adams College are persecuted by fraternities of jocks and popular girls. To defend themselves they form their own fraternity and use their brains to outwit their enemies."Revenge" is over three decades old now and has formulated a decent reputation, as far as school/college comedies go. The film works because it's amusing enough and -- despite the youthful inanities and occasional raunch -- the viewer starts to care about the outcasts and their cause; we celebrate when they have a victory over the pompous crowd. There's some nudity so stay away if that turns you off.The film runs 90 minutes and was shot in Tucson, Arizona.GRADE: B
