Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
The material is mostly predictable, moronic and deadly dull.
Oddly, the troubled Cliff is more sympathetic than the two self-involved protagonists.
Dead Man on Campus is a modestly amusing trifle that merits a passing grade as lightweight entertainment.
As a satire of new-style collegiate types, this MTV production actually evinces a few germs of rancid wit. If only the laborious high-concept plot had been deep-sixed -- and, along with it, the cynically blah heroes.
