Campus Theater
846-6512
Seems Like Old Times: Goldie
Hawn and Chevy Chase, two
extremely talented comedians,
star in only an average, but still
funny Neil Simon movie. Chase
plays Hawn's ex-bank robber
husband who eventually
clashes with her current hus
band who's out to capture the
inept criminal. Rated PG.
Rocky Horror Picture Show:
This is the story of "Ballpark"
Frank-N-Furter, who gets
beefed up over his creature who
has great buns. Yes, it's time to
relish those moments when din
ner consists of leftover meatloaf
— that is, when the characters
eat at the table. This is one movie
in which the audience is toasted
and reigns supreme. Midnight
Friday and Saturday. Rated R.
Manor East
823-8300
Fort Apache, The Bronx: Paul
Newman and Edward Asner,
two acting heavyweights, team
in this New York police drama in
which the police are fighting an
ways to save the orphanage in
which they were reared. Mid
night Friday and Saturday.
Rated R.
Caddyshack: Bill Murray and
Chevy Chase are definitely all
right in this country club version
of" Animal House." Best of all is
Rodney Dangerfield, who's
hilarious every time he's on
screen. Also starring is Ted
Knight. Don't miss the gopher
dandng to Kenny Loggins' good
music. Midnight Friday and
Saturday. Rated R.
The Big Red One: Lee Marvin
does a superb job in this well-
made war movie. The story is
typical — a group of American
boys fight their way across
Europe during World War II.
But the direction, script and
acting is superior to that of most
English-speaking films pro
duced the last couple of years.
Midnight Friday and Saturday.
Rated PG.
MSC Box Office
almost losing battle against the
gangs, junkies and pyromaniacs
of the Bronx. Rated R. See re
view on page four of this issue.
Charlie Chan and the Curse of
the Dragon Lady: Another cute
comedy that pokes fun at old
movies. This time the old Char
lie Chan films are satarized.
Angie Dickinson stars, but
there's no guarantee her hair
will be combed. Rated PG.
Rlues Brothers: "Saturday
Night Live" dropouts John Be-
lushi and Dan Ackroyd continue
to pretend to be blues singers.
First was their gold album, now
it's their movie which features
some real soul singers like
Aretha Franklin and the James
Brown. The boys are looking for
MEL
BROOKE
Sunday at 7:30 in Rudder
Theatre. Rated PG.
Cousin, Cousine: This hila
rious French comedy is about
kissing cousins, but thankfully
it's no Elvis Presley film.
Nominated for an Academy
Award, this movie is guaran
teed to be funny no matter in
what language it's heard.
Wednesday at 7:30 in Rudder
Theatre. Rated R.
Plitt Cinema I&II
846-6714
845-2916
Xanadu: About 90 minutes of
roller disco, Olivia Newton-
John and Electric Light Orches
tra music. If you can handle that
combination, the Marines are
looking for you. Also caught in
this fantasy story is Gene Kelly,
who was roller skating before
Olivia Newton-John was bom.
Thursday at 7:30 and 9:45 in
Rudder Theatre. Rated PG.
M*A*S*H: Donald Suther.
land and Elliot Gould are the in
comparable Hawkeye Pierce
and Trapper John in movie
that's every bit as good as the
television series. Director
Robert Altman doesn't go for all
the punchlines, so don't expect
to be tickled pink. Just expect to
be thoroughly entertained. Fri
day and Saturday at midnight in
Rudder Theatre. Rated R.
Silent Movie: With the excep
tion of one spoken word, this is
truly a silent movie. Mel Brooks
and Marty Feldman star in this
madcap comedy about a has-
been movie director and his
attempt to climb back to make
another hit. If the movie gets a
little boring (this is no "Blazing
Saddles"), count all the big stars
who make cameo appearances.
Ly Bloody Valentine: First it
was "Halloween" then it was
"Friday the 13th." Now it's
Valentine's Day — guess it's
time for another massacre. Holi
days just aren't sacred anymore
these days. Rated R.
Stir Crazy: The two funniest
men in movies, Richard Pryor
and Gene Wilder, are paired in
what should be an absolutely
hilarious film. Well, it's not
quite that great, but it's still pret
ty good. Pryor and Wilder are
accidentally accused of robbing
a bank and accidentally sent to
prison. They should have been
carted to the funny farm. Rated
R.
