Another summer descends upon North Star summer camp, and care-free counselor Tripper leads the mediocre and mismanaged campers against their arch rivals at the very well run and expensive neighboring camp, Mohawk.
- Joe MorrisAugust 16, 2026classic movie that taught me how to laugh. want to know what the late 70's early 80's comedy was like this is your movie.
- kieran.charetteJuly 20, 2026This is a strange movie, never seen it before so watching it in 2026 it feels extremely dated, especially the horseplay which would probably would be considered SA today. But, it's entertaining and it's nice seeing Bill Murray actually act, it's been a long time since I have seen him actually care about a role he is in.
- Mark CorsoApril 6, 202612 year old me would’ve gone full five, but watching it now it only seems to hit on a nostalgic note. The scene with Tripper and Roxanne where Tripper attacks her and holds her down on a couch is rough to watch, and some of Murray’s schtick plays as embarrassing rather than charming. Still, there’s a lot of heart and a wave of innocence that works well and that weirdly makes up for its lack of story.
- Rob MacKinnonFebruary 26, 2026An entertaining hangout movie, much sweeter and more heartfelt than I expected. I don’t know how I hadn’t seen this until now. Murray is great in this, and the relationship between his Tripper and Chris Makepeace’s Rudy is terrific.
- Dellvon C. FordDecember 14, 2024By definition an absolute classic camp...feel good....underdog ......coming of age movie.......everything is just perfect in this flick.....You almost feel like you're in camp seeing all this tomfoolery happen.....No black folk but outside of that this is a movie I personally watch over and over again......It's so nostalgic....if you've ever been to camp during the Summer this film will definetly stir some feelings and bring back some memories.....One of my all time favorite films.....It doesn't take itself too serious and allows authenticity and realness to drive.......
- tedpetersonNovember 26, 2025Beautiful memory from my childhood in the 80's. Used to sneak into my mom's room and watch HBO with this on it. Best times.
- Joey LambertSeptember 11, 2025Definitely love this Bill Murray classic this is one of his first films love it as a kid growing up definitely made a Bill Murray fan
- Peter BickfordNovember 14, 2025Surprisingly sweet performance by Murray in a comedy which makes you long for the relatively.carefree times of the late 70s. It truly is a lost era, and more's the shame for it.
- Spidey 2KJune 22, 2025Classic summer kick-off movie
