Loner freshman Jake Taylor is forced to join the wildest fraternity on campus when the frat brothers refuse to accept his geeky cousin/roommate unless Jake agrees to pledge with him. As the semester progresses, Jake struggles to maintain his grades as well as his affair with Paige, a beautiful sophomore who hates all fraternities. Through naked scavenger hunts, sorority ass-signings and all night beer fests, Jake discovers that he's actually beginning to enjoy himself. But when both his scholarship and his relationship with Paige are threatened, Jake must swallow his pride and turn to his fellow pledges for help or risk losing everything. Written by Anonymous
I caught this movie at a distribution screening last year. I thought this was one of the wittiest teen genre movies that I've seen...I'd put it on par with American Pie and Van Wilder. This movie had some very classic scenes, a couple which I don't think I could ever forget even if I tried. Certain parts looked a little low-budget, which is why I gave it an '8' out of '10', but I thought this was more than compensated for by the incredible job the writers did with the development of each of the major characters of the movie. For comparison's sake, I just saw 'Old School' on DVD last week, and honestly, 'Going Greek' blows 'Old School' out the water....no comparison whatsoever.
