An ambitious but confused film about basketball, draft dodging and sleeping with professors' wives.

Jack Nicholson's first venture into direction is very much a film of its time.

Top Critic
Nicholson deftly illustrates the background cynicism of big time sports against the more obvious cynicism of college life.

Top Critic No way can it be said to work, despite the cast's cultish distinction, but it still knocks most of its quasi-radical contemporaries sideways as an index of doomed '60s/'70s causes and confusions.

Ultimately, there's no theme here that isn't addressed more coherently and directly in a more conventional film like Five Easy Pieces.

Nicholson's personality comes through in the film's rhythms: crazed and vibrant at times, classical and refined at other times.

A disorganized but occasionally brilliant movie about two college students and the world they, and we, inhabit.

Top Critic All of the film's characters, and all of the performances, are touched with the kind of unexpected sensibility and decency that are rare in most films of this genre.
