THE VERDICT

Synthesized from published reviews

Rodney Dangerfield takes center stage as an uneducated tycoon who enrolls in college to support his son and joins the diving team. Dangerfield's relentless one-liners and contagious enthusiasm elevate a predictable campus premise into comedy gold. It remains a prime showcase for one of stand-up comedy's greatest legends.
