Caddyshack (1980)
6/10
Not the best movie, but still funny
28 May 2020
I can honestly say with an adult rewatch that I didn't like this as much as I did when I was a kid. Even so, for comedy Caddy shack is an important movie with the comic toure de force of Chevy Chase, Rodney Dangerfield and Bill Murray at the beginning stages of their film careers, as well as the directorial debut of Harold Ramis. With all these major players, that is a good enough reason to be so highly regarded. I do think that as a whole the movie is funny and making this was a 3 month long constant party for the cast and crew. A lot of the jokes and humor are a bit dated, and Caddyshack is very cheesy. However, with all it's flaws, our all star ensemble comic super cast is very likeable and the natural charisma of these legends shines through. Although, I think Caddy shack is highly dated and a little overrated, for it's time it was innovative and it's nice to see these comic legends together in this wild 80's comedy.
