Meatballs

Comedy Summer Camp highjinks centered around a camp counselor with a wacky sense of humor. He tries to help the campers have a good time. One camper named Rudy poses a particular challenge as he has a self-esteem problem
Media Author Review
United States
Chicago Tribune
"A cheerful, if not particularly deft, summer-camp comedy."
United States
AV Club
"The movie has a lumpy shape, and its jokes are often obvious and crude, but it’s a lot sweeter than the other raunchy comedies of the era" 
United States
The Washington Post
"A sort of 'M★A★S★H' for campers (...) Bill Murray makes a deceptively sensational debut as a film comedy star."
United States
Newsweek
"This film has almost none of the scraggy, raunchy, irreverent anarchy that gave "Animal House" a kind of perverse anti-style."
United States
The New York Times
"With far fewer high spirits than 'Animal House,' and only two characters of any interest, Meatballs reveals itself to be a loud, offkey cry for conformism (...) It's a sheep in wolf's clothing"
