Aye E @RT43717499 3d This isn't peak cinema but it's a really solid comedy, with a touch of drama and action. It doesn't hit all of the beats perfectly, but John Cryer and Annabeth Gish plus the supporting cast make this a grounded and really enjoyable world to visit. It's not a deep revisiting of the high school experience, but actually seems more realistic in the way the main character exists in the space as an adult finding a comfortable place to lay low. I appreciate that he doesn't have any illusions that he's reliving his youth, other than maybe the love interest. I wish they had made his character just a few years younger so the age-gap was a little less drastic. But doesn't come off as creepy, he wasn't actively pursuing high school girls, and he appreciates the age difference, however he does allow the connection to happen. Overall one that has stayed in my memory and I've loved to rewatch since 1987. Bonus: it introduced me to Roy Orbison.

The "Class President" subplot is pretty dumb (Senior Class President is always elected at the end of the Junior year), but it's an entertaining movie with a great performance by Jon Cryer. Plus, how can you not like a movie where a guy takes a girl to see Evil Dead 2 on a date? See more Steve D @RT35616104 09/01/2023 It works surprisingly well all things considered. See more 03/16/2021 A rather worthy adversary in a Jon Hughes era. Surprised this is not in the Bueller and Ridgemont High tier. Cryer gives a fresh and believable performance See more 04/08/2020 Cryer is good as the stockbroker who must go undercover at his cousin's high school. It's not believable but it's still fun to watch. See more Read all reviews
