Its deficiencies are too severe to bother tearing apart: Connor's short, charisma-deficient brother (Breckin Meyer) who comes from a totally other gene pool, if not gene planet, than his studly sib; cinematography that makes everyone except McConaughey look ugly (the same artless deglamorizing recently evident in 17 Again and State of Play); hapless guest appearances by Michael Douglas and Anne Archer, who must have wished they were back in Fatal Attraction; a background score comprising random samples of a Lite-FM playlist; and enough gaffes...

There’s mention of a half...
...presumptuous little sib of a final club president made the fatal error of addressing one PC member as a “fag.” We feel for him—it’ll be mighty cold standing barred outside the door of every other club besides his big bro’s for the next four years…Harvard’s Greek brofest may also face a dry future, as one rushee’s trip to UHS on bid night has landed the boys in hot water with the national chapter...
