Movie review

From Time Out New York

In what any student of Animal House will recognize as a boneheaded move, three prefrosh decide to spend their college visit crashing at a discipline-resistant frat, which naturally proceeds to treat them like pledges. Sure, the kids will learn to be confident, maybe even get laid—but not before scrubbing shit-filled toilets, doing shots out of the ass of an ursine student and getting trampled by a stable of unruly pigs. If college were really like this, everyone would drop out and found Microsoft.
