Virag's Movie Reviews: Neighbors (2014)

96 minutes has been longer, never more tedious.  Uniformly unfunny and insultingly stupid, at least Neighbors was not in any way a waste of talent but solely a waste of time.  The only hope for this rather threadbare concept would have been a period piece: set the film in 1981-1982 at a fairly selective university with a dynamic Greek system, while the drinking age was still low and the huge, beer-truck parties still completely bonkers, and before the worst of the Reagan-era doucebaggery had coalesced and perhaps you could have made a case for something bordering on humor.  Not there though.  Not in 2014.  Not Neighbors.
