Product Description

But for four harvard roomies the feisty ex-sailors outlook on life and love makes him the best professor of all. Studio: Warner Home Video Release Date: 02/03/2004 Starring: Joe Pesci Brendan Frasier Run time: 103 minutes Rating: Pg13 Director: Alex Keshishian

Joe Pesci gives his most likable performance to date, elevating this predictable comedy-drama. A stuck-up Harvard senior (Brendan Fraser) believes his life is ruined when an educated bum (Pesci) finds his thesis. The bum wants to trade each page for a favor during a harsh New England winter. Of course, the student learns more from his new friend than from the halls of Harvard. Some silly, melodramatic parts including an unbelievable classroom lecture make this comedy tiring at times. But the cast and dialogue ring truer than the tired plot. A solid first feature from Alek Keshishian (ITruth or Dare/I), who graduated with honors from Harvard. I--Doug Thomas/I

This film gets an 'A'! March 1, 2008
A homelss man(Joe Pesci) shows college students how to academically score well in this film. Great support from Brendan Fraser(AIRHEADS) and Patrick Dempsey(LOVERBOY,CAN'T BUY ME LOVE and of TV's Grey's Anatomy).

Arrived on time, did not have a case but this was put under the comments.....love the movie, very smooth transaction!
 Write this again...in thirty years May 9, 2007
This predictable story attempts to be deep, but never makes it past the shallow end. Pesci's great truths to the youth are simplistic, and presented to the students in uninteresting undramatic ways. The students buy into him...only because the script tells them to. I think even junior college students wouldn't take Pesci or his rantings seriously. It's a nice premise, but the script doesn't have the weight necessary. My guess is that the scripwriter was relatively young, and couldn't be expected to present the great essential truths learned from a life lived, when he himself hasn't made that journey yet. A suggestion: "The Paper Chase" with Timothy Bottoms and John Houseman...a much better, satisfying, and involving film about growing wiser while attending Harvard.
