Mindless fairy floss - but fun
Van Wilder – Party Liaison

Stars Ryan Reynolds and Tara Reid. Columbia TriStar. Rated MA. 92 mins.

Reviewer :: Ben Caddaye

VAN Wilder (Reynolds) is entering his seventh year of college, but his extra-curricular activities – planning wild parties and pursuing members of the opposite sex –have left precious little time for study.

So when Van’s father puts the freeze on the funding that’s allowed him to party hard for the best part of a decade, he has to come up with a fresh way to raise enough dough for at least one more wild school year.

And Van Wilder – Party Liaison is born.

This is a mindless movie with a fairy floss plot and bubblegum performances – but the net result is an hour-and-a-half of fun.

Reynolds plays the party animal to a tee and Reid is unobtrusive and easy on the eye.

Don’t expect any deep and meaningful messages from this flick. Van Wilder – Party Liaison is one of those movies where you turn your brain off before switching the VCR on.
