Don't Graduate. Celebrate.

ComedyRomance

Van Wilder has been attending college for far too many years and is scared to graduate, but Van’s father eventually realizes what is going on. When he stops paying his son's tuition fees, Van must come up with the money if he wants to stay in college, so he and his friends come up with a great fund-raising idea – throwing parties. However, when the college magazine finds out and reporter Gwen is sent to do a story on Van Wilder, things get a little complicated.

VIBE

This film feels like a boisterous, no-holds-barred college party, brimming with crude humor and a carefree, rebellious spirit. It's a lighthearted, often raunchy romp through campus antics, embracing a hedonistic charm. Expect a propulsive pace of comedic set pieces and a general sense of irreverent fun.
