Reviews

TV Guide Magazine -
It's lewd, it's crude and it's funny - don't try to say you didn't laugh.

The New York Times -
A portion of the audience will be strongly offended by Porky's, just as another portion will find it filthy but fun. However, there is no debating the success of Mr. Clark's casting, for he has assembled a cheerful, likable bunch of actors, most of them unknowns.

Time -
It has some of ["American] Graffiti's" sweetness of spirit, but none of its style or depth of feeling; it has some of "Animal [House"]'s raunchiness, but none of its loony anarchy.

Variety -
If, by chance, Porky's should prove to be Melvin Simon's swan song in the film industry, it will either be perceived as a thunderously rude exit or a titanic raspberry uttered to audiences everywhere.

The Globe and Mail (Toronto) -
Porky's is crafty, offensive retro-fantasy for one gender. [20 Mar 1982]
