The first-time director, Harold Ramis, can't hold it together: the picture lurches from style to style (including some ill-placed whimsy with a gopher puppet) and collapses somewhere between sitcom and sketch farce. Full Review |

A slapstick comedy featuring a host of great clowns. Full Review |

This vaguely likable, too-tame comedy falls short of the mark. Full Review |

If you're still at the age when farting and nose-picking seem funny, then Caddyshack should knock you dead. Full Review |

2.5/4 |
Caddyshack never finds a consistent comic note of its own, but it plays host to all sorts of approaches from its stars, who sometimes hardly seem to be occupying the same movie. Full Review |

3/5 |
