    Prep school movies are not complete without this dramatic gem. One of Brendan Fraser's best. I can't watch it anymore, though because I like Matt Damon so much.

    good movie..Brendan Fraser & Matt Damon did a very good job..This movie turned out great and hopefully shows the reality some people go through in a world of singled out religions or race..

    Good movie about a kid who has to fight anti-semitism in the 1950s. It was great seeing Fraser, O'Donnell, Damon and Affleck before they were so popular.

    Synopsis: Brendan Fraser plays a student attending a wealthy boarding school on a football scholarship in the 1950s. When the other kids find out he's Jewish--a fact he's been hiding--his fortunes and relationships instantly change. The film is pretty much wha...

    A well-acted, well-made flick. Matt Damon is so crazy mean it's awesome! Brenden Fraser is a really good actor, too. He's so diverse it's amazing! I don't even remember Chris O'Donnell in this movie. Hm.

    Solid film - pretty fun, too. To this day, I still love Brendan Frasier's last line. Also love seeing a SUPER young Matt Damon.

    Here's a great film, and one of my favorites. A great all-star cast with an even greater plot that holds the entire film at attention.

    This is quite a powerful movie. I must say it has really changed my view on Jews. They have already suffered alot not to mention they are the most had fun of religion. But they are all ppl and not all Jews were killed in the Holocraust, killed Jesus, or are dishonest. And not all Christians are purely good doers. Whether Ben Fraser is actually a Jew or not, he shows that ppl are ppl and ppl of all religions can do wrong so we must stop blaming the Jews the first chance we get.

    I can watch this movie over an dover and over.
    Each of the guys were so young and they acted so well.
    It's a great story and the fact that they were found out to be racists was not suprising at all.

    So controversial. I loved how the kids were forced to grow up and examine their prejudices, it was a really great, thought provoking movie, and (shocker here) I absolutely HATED Matt Damon's character. He was a complete BUTT.

    Well this falls way short of exceptional, but it was fun to see some good actors in their early days.
