"Back To School" is complete bullshit

Of all the Rodney Dangerfield movies that were made, there is but one that I will openly detest. That is "Back To School" as you geniuses might have guessed from the heading of this article. The basic plot is that Rodney Dangerfield, who plays Rodney Dangerfield in the movie, goes to college with his son despite the fact that Rodney Dangerfield is both old and, in fact, Rodney Dangerfield.
Needless to say, shenanigans ensue for about an hour and a half. As with any movie made about college, the stuffy Dean of Students is the antagonist. So the Dean is all gettin' up on Rodney Dangerfield for being Rodney Dangerfield, so what does Rodney Dangerfield do? ...I foget exactly, myself. But he ruins the Dean's shit somehow. And then this happens, which is why I FUCKING HATE THIS MOVIE:
And thats pretty much it. Rodney Dangerfield wins the movie. The end. Bullshit.
I don't know how Mr. Dangerfield tolerated having such a fiasco of a movie in his repertoire, it certainly tarnishes the fine reputation he had. Ah well, at least we can all enjoy a true masterpiece of cinema-- "Rover Dangerfield" which gets 100 thumbs up from me.
