Fraternity Vacation

★ 5.7
as Madman Mac

Gawky, innocent, and utterly uncool, Wendell Tvedt--Theta Pi Gamma fraternity's newest pledge--is a proper bookworm and a late bloomer. In the hope of getting lucky, Wendell's self-confident fraternity brothers, Mother and Joe, agree to accompany him on a week-long vacation to his parents' beach-side house in Palm Springs, where the action is. Will the boys show Wendell the ropes to transform him into a real Casanova? Description: Freshman College of Law Wendell (Stephen Geoffreys – 976-EVIL) humble and awkward. Therefore, the relationship with the girls he did not add up. Daddy does not stand Wendell and finances trip son and his two senior colleagues and Joe Momma to the resort. “Veterans love front” to help him, the more that life is worth trying. In Palm Springs, they meet a rival company of students and suddenly make a bet: the first one who can win over a beautiful but completely inaccessible Ashley will receive $ 1,000 … Review: This is a youth Comedy with a very light erotic shade and with a rather banal story. But this banal story I watched 5 times and will still watch. It is an easy film, without vulgar moments and good actors. Wendell (the main character) – a young man with a child’s face inspires some confidence in his character. And the role of the Mother, by the way – one of the first roles Tim Robbins. Verdict: the film “Fraternity Vacation” is very easy, funny, advise the evening show with friends.
