Caddyshack [View all]

Sorry if I posted this in the wrong place as a "classic film."

My family is away for a couple of weeks, and I thought I would attend to things that have been neglected. Once the main work is done, I thought I would also watch a few movies I've never seen before.

I am watching Caddyshack, and I honestly don't find it funny at all. I love Rodney Dangerfield, Ted Knight, and Bill Murray and can sometimes stand Chevy Chase. But, why is this considered a great movie?

When I compare it to the other Saturday Night Live-featured performers movie that came out the same year (ie, The Blues Brothers), there is no comparison. The Blues Brothers is so much better.

Different strokes for different folks, I guess, but can someone tell me why Caddyshack was considered great? I haven't yet cracked a smile and I'm in the last quarter of the movie.
