Wolff rating: GOOD
Plot summary: The mother of all college action movies, the crazy Deltas are at war with just about anyone sided with authority.
Biased, pithy comments: A Reitman/Landis work of art, this show is a cult classic. Belushi puts on a fantastic performance, and this movie kicked off a whole slew of imitations. It becomes a little painful in a way that ``Blues Brothers'' isn't, though, in the wanton destruction of property by people that are in a situation that *is* to be believed if seen through the right lens. Perhaps the knowledge that what this is and what college is and in which depressing ways they are related turns me a little off this one, but it still is quite the movie.
Other Notes: Note the fate of Niedermeyer and then watch ``Twilight Zone'' (motion picture) and check out the Vietnam section. Written in part by Harold Ramis.
