Best two reviews:
1) Chicago Sun-Times - The movie is vulgar, raunchy, ribald, and occasionally scatological. It is also the funniest comedy since Mel Brooks made "The Producers." (Rating: 100) Read Full Review >
2) The Globe and Mail (Toronto) - Animal House is the sort of film you hate yourself for laughing at. It is so gross and tasteless you feel you should be disgusted but it's hard to be offended by something that is so sidesplittingly funny. [05 Aug 1978] (Rating: 88) Read Full Review >

Worst two reviews:
5) Time - At its best it perfectly expresses the fears and loathings of kids who came of age in the late '60's; at its worst Animal House revels in abject silliness. The hilarious highs easily compensate for the puerile lows. (Rating: 70) Read Full Review >
6) Chicago Reader - While the low comedy is undeniably effective, the film leaves behind a bad taste of snobbery and petty meanness. (Rating: 70) Read Full Review >
