"There's enough bite and bawdiness to provide lots of smiles and several broad guffaws."

Variety
Variety"Growing old disgracefully, Animal House is every bit as good as you remember."

Total Film
Total Film"An unashamed sense of its own fantasy is coupled with classically mounted slapstick; nostalgia mixes with cynicism in seductive proportions."
—
Time Out
Time Out"By no means one long howl, but it's often very funny, with gags that are effective in a dependable, all-purpose way."
—
The New York Times
The New York Times"The movie is vulgar, raunchy, ribald, and occasionally scatological. It is also the funniest comedy since Mel Brooks made The Producers."
—
Roger Ebert
Roger Ebert"Arguably the most influential comedy of our time."
