Williams (The Whole Nine Yards) star in this hilarious comedy Sorority Boys. When three broke playboy chauvinists are thrown out of their college fraternity, they find themselves drawn to one last, desperate hope for free room and board - the D.O.G. house, the female Delta Omicron Gamma sorority. With a little make-up and a pair of tights, our heroes go undercover in enemy camp while they try to figure out how to get back in the fraternity. But life's a drag as the boys see firsthand how the other half lives. And their history of treating women badly comes back to haunt them when they walk a mile in their (high-heeled) shoes. It's a wild, rowdy, raunchy comedy that just won't stop.

While living inside the house and plotting their moves to find evidence inside the KOK house, the three men/women get in touch with their `softer side' by dealing with tampons, dildos, makeup and dresses.

It completely cracked me up with laughter.
The boys become so heavily involved with the situation they find themselves in, they actually do become like real women. One of the boys, Dave, is so concerned that his ass looks fat in everything he wears, and is constantly teased by the boys of the committee, that he actually goes on a training course, and starts to shop for things that would compliment his large butt more. more
The Plot-
Three university guys are kicked out of their dorms after being framed for stealing money that they have been in charge of saving for a cocktail cruise at the end of the years semester. Without no money and desperate for clues to who framed them, they decide to dress up as women and join the 'ugly girls' frat house, the same girls they have despised throughout their university lives. Dave (Barry Watson), Doofer (Harland Williams), and Adam (Michael Rosenbaum) are the only members of the KOK (pronounced cock) fraternity social committee. What better way to fool their fraternity brothers than to show up at the party as women!? `Daisy,' `Roberta,' and `Adina' go to the party to find a hidden video camera that recorded the true thief in the act. All they need to do is find the videotape and their innocence will be revealed. If it were only so easy! Instead, they are tossed out of the party during the ceremony known as `dogcatcher' - usually reserved for getting rid of the unattractive women of the neighbouring Delta Omicron Gamma (DOG - clever, huh?) sorority.
Leah (Melissa Sagemiller), the feminist DOG sorority president, feels sorry for the masculine looking girls and offers them a room in her sorority where they can be around other aesthetically challenged co-eds. While living inside the house and plotting their moves to find evidence inside the KOK house, the three men/women get in touch with their `softer side' by dealing with tampons, dildos, makeup and dresses.
My Views-
This movie is hilarious for both the males and female audiences. It completely cracked me up with laughter. The boys become so heavily involved with the situation they find themselves in, they actually do become like real women. One of the boys, Dave, is so concerned that his ass looks fat in everything he wears, and is constantly teased by the boys of the committee, that he actually goes on a training course, and starts to shop for things that would compliment his large butt more.
The three guys attempts at pulling off high heels, nylons and short skirts creates genuinely very funny moments throughout the movie, from instances that both guys and girls can relate too.
The actors performances were marvellous for this sort of film, even though I have never heard of them before. The film was directed by Wallace Wolodarsky, who is certainly no stranger to irreverent comedy after logging time on The Simpsons. I would recommend this to anyone who just want to watch something very funny with some cheap laughs.
DVD BONUS MATERIAL
GAG REEL- After the hilarious moments of the movie, try this feature out, and have more laughs as they goof the lines whilst wearing their drag out-fits, some funny clips of them just loosing the plot completely.
On Set- This shows the boys in make up, photo shoots to promote the movie, and the guys fooling around onset in their drag outfits. Again funny to watch, with some interesting views on their experiences whilst making the film.

Advantages: Average college movie with interesting themes Disadvantages: Little bit too much of a guy movie
...can live in the female sorority house and get to stay in school. Along the way they discover how badly men really treat females and want to change their ways to atone for the way they previously lived and the male species in general. You know they are going to find the real thief and learn their lesson along the way. A few things - touch football, rules? Are they the same as gridiron, because the ref calling that game didn't know his job. Lots of ... ...the field in minutes. Generally the film is OK if you watch it with no brain. Despite being billed as having such themes it's nothing to do with cross dressing really, just a bunch of guys learning not to be sexist. No doubt this will be classed alongside movies like Mrs. Doubtfire and Tootsie but there are no genuine aspects of cross dressing or transvestism really shown here, just a few ignorant young men finding out what life is like on the other ...
