Most of the movies he appeared in pre-Deadpool didn't really make the best use of his talents. Look, I'll be honest, as I always try to be, I've always enjoyed Ryan Reynolds' work, I think he's a better actor than most people give him credit for, but he doesn't always appear in the best of movies. Real Genius is actually good, this one, eh, isn't that good in the slightest.
Oh and there's one other difference and, really, it's the biggest possible difference. The only real difference is that Van Wilder is a much more raunchy movie than Real Genius. I think I even mentioned this in my review of Real Genius. The first thing I noticed about this movie is how much Reynolds' performance in this movie reminds me of Val Kilmer's performance in Real Genius. Thought it'd be interesting to revisit this movie as I did another Reynolds movie (Waiting) last week. I never did, I always thought he was really talented and funny and I think that I became a fan of his, back in the day at least, as a result of this movie, which I actually bought when I was 14. And I remember a time, pre-Deadpool, where a lot of people (on the internet, of course) hated Reynolds. With that said, this is very much the movie that introduced Ryan Reynolds to the world. Ryan Reynolds may never win an Oscar, but he already has the role and/or character of a lifetime and that is Deadpool and, you know what, to me, that's cooler than winning an Oscar. Like, seriously, it was apparent from day one, there IS no one else to play this character. Another thing is the fact, and this isn't even related to the movie itself, that Ryan Reynolds was absolutely born to play Deadpool. But, really, this movie predates all the craziness that would go down. Tara Reid has been her own worst enemy in terms of her career. Part of that is her clear lack of talent, but I think she's clearly not the best person to have on set, she seems like she's not that stable even at the best of times. I think Tara, at this point in time at least, didn't really bother to improve since she was, really, only cast because she was hot, so why would you need to learn to be good at something when you're only cast for your looks? That's why, outside of the Sharknado franchise, you don't really see Tara in many movies anymore. Ashton Kutcher and Tara, in that movie, were one of the worst rom-com pairings I've ever seen. If any of you have ever seen My Boss's Daughter then you've bared witness to how awful she can be. Not that anyone has ever claimed that she's good, I just feel the need to point this out. And, really, let's not put a gender on this, Tara Reid is one of the worst actors, male or female, that I have ever seen. Van Wilder is a party you don't want to miss or ignore.You know, I don't know if I've mentioned this before, I know I have on one review that's on RottenTomatoes, said review is not up on Letterboxd, but I legitimately think that Tara Reid is one of the worst actresses I have ever seen, bar none. It's the perfect romantic comedy that is right up any guys alley( or girls, the ones that can stand this kind of humor anyways.) but all in all this cult classic is not just a good comedy but a good lesson that if you live your life by partying and evading the future you'll never get anywhere. Wild Parties and outrageous humor that you just can't help laughing at.
Van Wilder is a movie that's got it all, hot girls. Wilder is a 7th year college student at Coolidge College he's the king of the campus and he's got a party going every night, and a girl left and right, every guy wants to be him, and every girl wants him's, but when Van's dad cuts him off and leaves him hanging in the wind he's going to have to come up with away to stay in school or lose it all. Wilder is someone who we all want to be and who are all on the inside. Van Wilder stars Ryan Reynolds as the title character in this hilarious romp.
And a spark of hope and inspiration when needed, these are a few of the many things that make watching Van do what he does best so much fun. Wilder is someone Van Wilder consummate play boy.
