Takes itself way too seriously

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

The makers of this movie should have known they were in trouble when they hired Chris Owens to be the tough guy, rather than the geek. Did they honestly think that viewers would think of him as anything other than a complete idiot? And I am not just basing it on the Sherminatior. I am basing it on the fact that he clearly is a complete geek. In reality, he would NEVER get in a fraternity (which REALLY makes a person sad.) let alone be one of the big men in it. The rest of the movie was equally as poorly made. Predictable, unfunny, and just plain painful to watch. This movie is not worth even 5 minutes of the viewer's time.

However, "Going Greek" is not a well-made movie in any way. Sure, muchleeway should be afforded to any filmmaker who sets out to make a film, withsuch low budget constraints. In the end, the film fails to do exactly that which it set out to do, make people laugh. Even with leeways given to the filmmakers, this film is so horrible and a waste of time that I can't even believe I wasted a whole Saturday night watching it. I have only written reviews for a few other movies, but I was so moved by this flop that I just had to write one here. There is obviously little thought put into any of the female characters. They are all weak and stupid. What could have been a great movie with a great premisewas wasted on a horribly cast, horribly written, and yes, horribly directed, gritty movie that doesn't even have good music. Even a low budget film can find good indi bands and good music. More careful analysis, testing, and more attention to films would've helped this film out immensely. There is a reason this is a straight to video production. Rent it if you like, but just know you have been warned. One interesting moment is the Director commentary on DVD. He isactually a well-spoken gentleman with a lot to be said about film-making.

Brutal. I will probably never get those 90 minutes back. How could a movie with Claire Forlani and Susan Ward be so hard to watch. Poor Oliver...I hope his sister is still ragging on him for that poor career decision. This movie is on my top 3 for "worst movies ever." Thanks. So if you don't mind, I'm going to go have 2 beers and write a movie. Probably funnier than this one.

This movie isn't going to change the world, or bring all people together in the spirit of unity. It's a good no-brainer (turn your brain off and enjoy). Yes, you've seen the movie before; there aren't many, if any, surprises here. But it is still an engaging cast, and has the feel of a movie that was made to be fun and fun to make.Rent the DVD, however, for the deleted scenes. It seems to me they cut out some things that were important to the story, such as it was.
