A no-brainer that has become a low-brow classic, this 1980 comedy makes anarchy the rule of the day, unleashing the antics of Bill Murray, Rodney Dangerfield, Ted Knight, and Chevy Chase. Caddyshack is about the scheme of a vulgar land developer (Dangerfield) who wants to build condominiums on the site of a ritzy country club. Director Harold Ramis (who later reunited with Murray to make Groundhog Day) is content to let the comedy follow a variety of wacky detours, most notably Murray's maniacal war with a gopher that has been digging up the golf course. Dangerfield ultimately steals the show, firing off a battery of one-liners, insults, and tasteless gags. Caddyshack is the kind of movie some people have been known to watch several times a year, reciting every line of dialogue like the followers of a bizarre comedic ritual. --Jeff Shannon

Rating:  - Still Makes Me Laugh
This is not high brow comedy by any stretch, but it makes no difference since there are so many funny lines and scenes that it all comes together to make me laugh all these years later.
Chase, Murray, Dangerfield and Knight all have memorable parts in this movie and as a golfer some of these things come across as pretty funny since they are semi-real. Not dancing gophers but some attitudes and general country club situations.
Yes it is juvenile also in many respects, but I still think that I must "be the ball" on the course. Doesn't help my golf game much but makes me smile when I am not doing well.
Rating:  - Caddyshack: A Comedy Classic
This is one of the classic comedies from the 80's. The main actors Ted Knight, Bill Murray, Rodney Dangerfield, and Chevy Chase play extremely well together. This is not brilliant comedy; however, it is knee slapping funny in numerous scenes. When Chevy Chase sings, "I was born to love you, I was born to lick your face." You can't help but laugh. Some jokes hit, some don't, but overall, this is an enjoyable comedy that is a 4-star delight to watch. Enjoy.
Rating: - Buy a DVD like this, get a free bowl of soup
Do yourself a favor, play 36 holes in the day time and at night pop this DVD in and get stoned to the bejesus belt. C'M0N...CANN0NBALL....CANN0NBALL!!! However, don't buy this DVD from Mr. Wonderful, no matter what spelling you use.
Rating:  - It's funny, but it's not all it's cracked up to be...
I will admit that `Caddyshack' is severely overrated. Sure, it's funny and I found enjoyment out of the film in general, but it is no where near the laugh riot that many faithful devotees will have you thinking it is. That said, `Caddyshack' does have followers for a reason, and that is that it manages to tickle the funny bone on more than one occasion, and the star making comedic turns by many in the cast don't hurt the films iconic status.
The film revolves around a posh golf course that is being destroyed by a gopher as well as a loudmouthed new member. The film almost has no point other than to make fun of itself at every possible juncture, stringing along a slew of subplots involving a caddy contest and a doomed love affair in order to give the film a reason to exist, but when it all boils down to it there is no reason to watch other than the pointless gags and memorable one-liners.
The script is not as tightly woven as it could be; that is to say that the film is not very smart. This is kind of like the movie that is so dumb you can't help but laugh at it and since you laughed you repeat and tell you friends and then they watch it and laugh and then you all talk about it even though deep down you know the movie is kind of a waste; sort of like `Napoleon Dynamite', except this one stars Bill Murray so you think your adoration is justified, even though it's not. Just take a moment to let the accuracy of my above words sink in, since you know I'm right even if you ... Read More
Rating: - A timeless classic.
Still a classic after all these years. I remember watching this as I grew up. You can watch this over and over again and still laugh at the jokes.
