Storyline

Comical goings on at an exclusive golf club. All the members are wealthy and eccentric, and all the staff are poor and slightly less eccentric. The main character is 'Danny'; he's a caddy who will do almost anything to raise money to go to college. There are many subplots, including the assistant green keeper's pursuit of a cute (obviously stuffed) gopher. Written by Rob Hartill

Crazy Credits

During its network television runs in the 1980's, CBS would always air "Caddyshack" with the traditional "Starry Night" Orion/Warner Bros logo (1981-present), while NBC would air the original (and very rare) "Inverting Rectangles" Orion/Warner Bros logo (1979-81). The original theatrical release contained the "Inverting Rectangles" variant back in 1980 common to other Orion films of that era. Both logo presentations were available in the earliest VHS releases of the film (from 1981 and 1983 respectively); however, premium cable airings and later VHS/DVD/Blu-Ray versions each contain the "Starry Night" variant.

Another comedy that is popular for no reason
11 September 2016 | by (Barry's bay Ontario Canada) – See all my reviews

This is not funny. This is nothing but hype. It is not a 7.4. I give it 4 out of 10 because it is not funny it is boring. The story line is awful. Do not know why this is so popular. Is it because Bill Murray is in it. He is a good actor. But this is not a good movie. A lot of the actors in it has talent. But this movie is a waste of there time. Do not wast your time. And do not wast your money. I can not believe that the same man who wrote Ghostbusters and the same man who directed Ghostbusters wrote and directed this crappy movie. Ghostbusters is a great film. And this is just crap. Do not this movie. This movie has seen were people think a chocolate bar is a piece of pooh. Because it this movie is pooh.
