Editorial Review:
A no-brainer that has become a low-brow classic, this 1980 comedy makes anarchy the rule of the day, unleashing the antics of Bill Murray, Rodney Dangerfield, Ted Knight, and Chevy Chase. Caddyshack is about the scheme of a vulgar land developer (Dangerfield) who wants to build condominiums on the site of a ritzy country club. Director Harold Ramis (who later reunited with Murray to make Groundhog Day) is content to let the comedy follow a variety of wacky detours, most notably Murray's maniacal war with a gopher that has been digging up the golf course. Dangerfield ultimately steals the show, firing off a battery of one-liners, insults, and tasteless gags. Caddyshack is the kind of movie some people have been known to watch several times a year, reciting every line of dialogue like the followers of a bizarre comedic ritual. --Jeff Shannon
Caddyshack Reviews:
Good movie - bad disc 
2008-11-17 - Disc always stops at the same location about 20 minutes into play, I am able to navigate forward to get it playing again but that ruins the movie. Defect discovered months after purchase, I plan to buy another in HD DVD or DVD format.
my private review mach 5 
2008-11-03 - 1 of my favorite movies i was never a caddy, so I cant relate I was a bagger at a supermarket
Caddyshack 20th anniversary edition 
2008-10-17 - Of course the movie is great and it was a great price, but the copy I received was a standard edition and not the 20th anniversary edition; I feel cheated.
Still Makes Me Laugh
2008-10-06 - This is not high brow comedy by any stretch, but it makes no difference since there are so many funny lines and scenes that it all comes together to make me laugh all these years later.
Chase, Murray, Dangerfield and Knight all have memorable parts in this movie and as a golfer some of these things come across as pretty funny since they are semi-real. Not dancing gophers but some attitudes and general country club situations.
Yes it is juvenile also in many respects, but I still think that I must "be the ball" on the course. Doesn't help my golf game much but makes me smile when I am not doing well.
Caddyshack: A Comedy Classic 
2008-09-01 - This is one of the classic comedies from the 80's. The main actors Ted Knight, Bill Murray, Rodney Dangerfield, and Chevy Chase play extremely well together. This is not brilliant comedy; however, it is knee slapping funny in numerous scenes. When Chevy Chase sings, "I was born to love you, I was born to lick your face." You can't help but laugh. Some jokes hit, some don't, but overall, this is an enjoyable comedy that is a 4-star delight to watch. Enjoy.
