«All the girls want him. All the boys want to be him.»
Вэн Уайлдер учится в колледже уже шесть лет, и все никак не может получить диплом.

"National Lampoon's Van Wilder," released in 2002 and produced by Tapestry Films and Myriad Pictures, is a comedic gem that encapsulates the essence of college life through the lens of its titular character, Van Wilder. Portrayed by Ryan Reynolds, Van Wilder is a charismatic and perpetually enrolled senior at Coolidge College, who has turned his extended stay into a lifestyle, offering services to fellow students as the ultimate party planner and problem solver. The film, set in the United States, cleverly navigates the absurdities of campus culture, blending slapstick humor with a surprising depth of character development. The plot thickens when Van's indulgent lifestyle is threatened by his father's decision to cut off his financial support, forcing Van to confront the reality of graduation and the future. This pivotal moment introduces a new dynamic to the film, as Van must navigate his way through newfound challenges with the help of his loyal friends and the school's ambitious journalist, Gwen Pearson, played by Tara Reid. Their evolving relationship adds a layer of romantic tension and personal growth to the narrative, elevating the film beyond its comedic roots. Director Walt Becker, along with writers Brent Goldberg and David Wagner, infuse "National Lampoon's Van Wilder" with a distinctive blend of humor and heart. The film's strength lies in its ability to balance outrageous comedic set pieces, such as the infamous streaking scene and the "doughnut" incident, with moments of genuine introspection and emotional resonance. This duality is what sets "Van Wilder" apart from other college comedies of its time, making it a memorable entry in the National Lampoon franchise. Ultimately, "National Lampoon's Van Wilder" is a testament to the enduring appeal of a well-crafted comedy that doesn't shy away from exploring deeper themes. The film's success can be attributed to its sharp writing, memorable performances, particularly Reynolds' charismatic portrayal of Van, and its ability to capture the spirit of college life with both humor and sincerity. As a product of Tapestry Films and Myriad Pictures, "Van Wilder" remains a beloved classic that continues to entertain and resonate with audiences long after its release.
