"A little underwhelming"
2 stars"

I know we look back at the eighties with some fondness and some truly whacky film making. Given that this a relatively early outing for Bill Murray coming from Sat night live you can certainly see the comedic style that was to mature in later movies. That said it has some nice moments but the only laugh out loud is very early on and promises much but ultimately fails to deliver. If you're a die hard BM fan go for it but beware this is no Stripes

"Bill Murray being Bill Murray at a Summer Camp. A+"

Some cringe – you get that from almost any movie made in the 80s, but in general good fun. Wind up Bill Murray and let him go … Instant hit.

Description

Meatballs – Special Edition

We'll Give You One Hell Of A Holiday

Before teaming up in Stripes and Ghostbusters, Director Ivan Reitman and Bill Murray bring you their first collaboration in Meatballs. The wackiest head counselor in North Star camp history, Tripper Harrison (Bill Murray) devotes his summer activities to cracking jokes, chasing female staffers, and plotting the demise of their evil rich rivals, the snotty young brats at nearby Camp Mohawk. Jam-packed with hysterical off-the-wall hjinks, drop-dead gorgeous babes in the woods and the riotous one-liners of the one-and-only Bill Murray, Meatballs is an Animal House goes to summer camp (Newsweek) comedy classic!

Critic Reviews:

  • " For those of you that are big fans of the cult comedy hit Wet Hot American Summer, Meatballs is the summer camp movie it parodied the most, even though Meatballs had a bigger heart and was strictly PG. " – Eric Melin
  • " It's Murray's spon­taneity that gives the movie its lifeblood. But Murray also shows an early, rare example of onscreen tenderness. " – Jeffrey M. Anderson
  • " The scenes between Murray and Makepeace are nicely handled, and the lack of mean-spiritedness is refreshing. " – Matt Brunson
