I have a soft spot for college movies involving fraternities or sorotities, especially when they get raunchy with parties, booze and wars among them. This movie incorporate a tiny bit of that but its very minimal.
Its more of a Mean Girls in college kinda movie, and even tough there is indeed a competition between the 2 houses, it didn't felt like the center stage at all. There is only 3 different events in the competition and they breeze trough pretty fast. I never felt any tension in the competition.
Movies is under 90 minutes and spend quite a while introducing us to the characters and following Lucy on her "scouting" of the sororities and such. So there is so few times to have the actual "war" in Sorority War.
When it comes to the characters a lot of their decisions and actions look a bit weird. Im not gonna spoil anything but the best friend and the mom especially, i don't think anyone would behave like this. I get that these movies are not meant to be realistic and i can suspend my disbelief over slapsticks, gags, and college sheninagans but these 2 "relations" and how they evolve felt off to me.
We also spend very very few times with any sorority sisters beside the "leader" of the Kappa, the best friend and the Delta "leader" wich is pretty much the main antagonist.
Overall i didn't find the same fun as in either the original Mean Girls (only one i saw so far), American Pie Beta House, Van Wilder 2 or The House Bunny.
But thats not to say i disliked the movie. I think it was alright. Good for a viewing. Since its a made for TV movie im fine giving it a bit of slack as well. I just finished it and taught "yeah well.. that was alright" but nothing more.
