...some clever repartee among the principal characters and a couple of cute gags. It's not much to hang a picture on.

Une bonne location pour un party entre amis et pour ceux qui ne sont pas fatigués de la recette des films d’ados.

Will Ferrell ... makes about ten minutes of this movie side-splittingly hilarious. That's like finding a few pieces of crunchy cereal in a bowl of sour milk.

You don't need to run stoplights getting to the theater — the video will do — but Old School fulfills your expectations.

It may not be much, but these days, two or three big laughs is nothing to sneeze at.

Normalmente, não aprecio o tipo de humor rasteiro que este tipo de produção costuma empregar, mas exceções acontecem, e os risos provocados por este filme são a prova disto.

Subplots fizzle out and plausibility dwindles (a thirtysomething college dean?), but at least there are no de rigueur fart, burp or scatological jokes.

It’s insipid, and Will Ferrell streaks through it naked. No, it’s not an SNL skit... it’s the latest college frat film, and it’s marginally ok at best.

Not exactly a time-travel fantasy, but definitely inhabited by spaced-out, anachronistic characters, Old School is about a trio of 30-something buds who yearn to go back to the past in order to avoid the present.
