Van Wilder: Party Liaison is a comedy film starring Ryan Reynolds and Tara Reid with Kal Penn and Daniel Cosgrove the most notable supporting cast.
Van Wilder (Ryan Reynolds) has been at Coolidge College for seven years and has shown no intention of graduating. He is enjoying his time there and spends it partying, helping his fellow students and organising parties and fundraisers. Understandably, Van's father no longer wishes to pay for his 'education' and withdraws his funding.
As Van is the big man on campus, the college paper journalist, Gwen (Tara Reid) is asked to write a paper on him and his exploits. This is such a success that she writes a follow up paper. Van attempts to romance Gwen but she is already involved with Richard (Daniel Cosgrove) so the two men start up a rivalry with one another which results in them playing pranks and generally attepting to embarass and discredit the other.
Richard makes sure that there are under-age drinkers at one of Van's parties and reports this to the police. Van is almost expelled but pleads his case and gets one last chance to graduate and get the girl...
This film, although entertaining, is not really ground-breaking, most of this has been done by American Pie (they even stole one of the cast members). It is funny and if you want a film that you can watch without thinking about it too much and have a bit of a giggle, this would be fine. Ryan Reynolds is a great comedy actor and he plays this part well. Some of the pranks they play against each other are truly disgusting, for instance Van inserts dog semen into some food and sends it to Richard and his fraternity. They all enjoy it, until they see the picture that was placed in the box. Its all toilet humour but its done fairly well. Not a bad effort.
