Synopsis: Following in the irreverent footsteps of the Farrelly Brothers and National Lampoon is this farcical send-up of college life. Dave, Doofer, and Adam always lead the party in their fraternity's... Following in the irreverent footsteps of the Farrelly Brothers and National Lampoon is this farcical send-up of college life. Dave, Doofer, and Adam always lead the party in their fraternity's frequent and wild blowouts. But when their jealous frat president frames them for theft, the three are banished. Their only hope of getting back in is to prove they didn't steal the fraternity's treasury fund by getting hold of the videotape that will prove who did. But how can three excommunicated frat boys get back into their house? Dressed as girls, of course, at one of the house's many parties. The three wind up as new pledges in the D.O.G. sorority, where the unpopular girls go after all the other sororities reject them. But the hoax gets turned on its ear when Dave starts falling for one of his sorority sisters, who returns his affection--as long as he's a woman--while Adam evades the amorous advances of his former little brother and Doofer gets in touch with his feminine side. REVENGE OF THE NERDS meets SOME LIKE IT HOT in this slapstick, gross-out, romantic coming-of-age sex story. [More]

  • Sorority Boys
  • The high-heeled high jinks begin when three falsely accused "frat brats" find themselves booted from their brotherhood. Short on cash and desperate, they use pancake, pantyhose, and "pluck" to pledge the ugly girl sorority. Life's a drag as they try to find their way back to fraternity life, and dressing the part puts them in hilarious hot water time and again. What's a boy, pretending to be a girl, to do after treating women so badly? Once in touch with their feminine side, our "girls" realize the error of their ways and make up for their mistakes.

    A one-trick pony whose few T&A bits still can't save itself from being unoriginal, unfunny and unrecommendable.

    Full of witless jokes, dealing in broad stereotypes and outrageously unbelievable scenarios, and saddled with a general air of misogyny

    The stupidest, most insulting movie of 2002's first quarter.

    The logic of it all will be Greek to anyone not predisposed to the movie's rude and crude humor.

    The members manage to pronounce KOK exactly as you think they might, thus giving the cast ample opportunity to use that term as often as possible. It’s very Beavis and Butthead, yet always seems to elicit a chuckle.

    ...this dull and uninviting Animal House wannabe is just another numb kooky gender-bender romp all dressed up with nowhere to go.

    The dumb, mean-spirited start never gets sharper or smarter, and when it tries to show the guys learning the tougher side of being a woman, it’s neither perceptive nor funny.

    Merely (and literally) tosses around sex toys and offers half-hearted paeans to empowerment that are repeatedly undercut by the brutality of the jokes, most at women's expense.

    Whenever it realizes it's venturing into truly risky territory, it bounces back to somewhere safer, like the terra firma of conventional boy-oriented teen-raunch comedy.

    After being subjected to this painful movie ... you'll be rendered speechless. Not by any demonstrable good humor, but because of light brain damage.

    In regards to being dumb and juvenile, it clearly succeeds -- or fails, depending on one's overall view of the effort.
