Amazon.com essential video:
Young Clark Kellog (Matthew Broderick) had no idea film school would drop him into the hands of a real-life Godfather, but after a street punk robs him his first day in New York City, that's just where the road leads. Marlon Brando let everyone know he was in on the joke with his hammy, good-humored performance as the bulldog-jowled Mafioso Carmine Sabatini, the man Clark's prissy, self-important professor swears was the real life inspiration of Don Corleone. Carmine has a modest proposal for the naive kid from Vermont involving Carmine's gorgeous daughter Tina (Penelope Ann Miller) and the illegal importing of an endangered lizard. Andrew Bergman's tongue-in-cheek comedy keeps the spoofing in a low key, underplaying the outrageous situations even as he piles them higher: if the sight of a six-foot-long lizard scattering shoppers as it runs wild through a New York City mall doesn't do it for you, there's always Bert Parks's rousing rendition of Bob Dylan's 'Maggie's Farm.' --Sean Axmaker

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Suspense, romance and mischievousness
The film has four or five stars acting: Marlon Brando (surprising the audience with revival Don Corleone), Matthew Broderick (an ingenuous outsider student), Penelope Ann Miller (a delicious impostor girl friend of Broderick), Bruno Kirby (a nice New Yorker mob member), and the splendid photography of New York City. Suspense, romance, mischievousness and smart direction of Andrew Bergman. That cannot be lost!
Rating: - A comedic offer you can't refuse
Everyone has their share of hard times as a college freshman. Getting screwed into taking Bio at 8 a.m. on Fridays. Not having a fake I.D. -- and not knowing enough people who do. RA's busting you for partying in your room. The list goes on and on.
Few of us, however, can claim to having as abysmal a start to their collegiate career as Clark Kellogg (Matthew Broderick) in "The Freshman." The naive Clark, who hails from Vermont, is set to attend New York University as the film begins. ... Read More
Rating:  - Very funny parody of mafia movies.............
The Freshman is a very funny movie. The central joke is that Marlon Brando plays a godfather type figure in lower Manhattan who for obvious reasons looks exactly like the titular character Brando so famously portrayed. Matthew Broderick is the freshman, an innocent NYU film student, who through some comedic misadventures gets involved with Brando and his "family". The funniest scenes involve a Komodo dragon loose in a New Jersey shopping mall though the whole film is a delightful comedy. The ... Read More
Rating: - A really good movie.
This is a great movie. I love movies that have strong character actor parts. Everyone is alittle over the top and very entertaining.
Rating: - histerical
The main charactic basicly has a look of panic about everything that's happening to him.
