DVD Synopsis

Is it possible to be politically correct and unified? Find out in this satire set on a fictional eastern university. Port Chester University espouses pc thinking. From the Womynists to the Republicans, everyone there is involved in a cause; many of them are militant. So involved are they, that there is no time to go to class. Much of the story focuses upon residents of the Pit, a co-ed dorm devoted to anarchy and anti-pc philosophy. They are led by Droz. All of the other groups loathe the Pit dwellers, and wish to close it down. President Garcia-Walker is also unpopular for her unbending uptight demeanor. The film's highlight is a giant party featuring the musical stylings of George S. Clinton and Funkadelic. ~ Sandra Brennan, All Movie Guide

Editorial Review of DVD

Hart Bochner's college-set comedy PCU arrives on DVD with a pair of transfers. The Widescreen anamorphic transfer preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.85:1, preferable to the standard full-frame image. English and Spanish soundtracks are rendered in Dolby Digital Surround. Subtitles are accessible in these two languages as well. Supplemental materials include a commentary track recorded by Bochner and star Jeremy Piven, a making of featurette, the theatrical trailer, and a music video for Mudhoney's cover of the classic Elvis Costello song "Pump It Up." This is a solid release from 20th Century Fox. ~ Perry Seibert, All Movie Guide

Bennett M. (SciFiNerd83) from MURRAY, KY wrote on 8/18/2009...

This is very much a cult movie. If you love Jeremy Piven (I do) then you will like this movie. It contains a lot of quick witty banter and obvious edgy dirty jokes. The movie is a bit dated, but some of the themes do carry over to our current time-line. This is a good movie to watch late at night and that is typically where you will find it on TV. Ive seen this on Comedy Central, TNT, USA all after midnight.
