    How have I never seen this before? So so so much fun. Great cinematography by Barry Sonnenfeld and great directon from Phil Joanou. Why did Spielberg take his name off this?

    Funny "High Noon" spoof with great camerawork by Barry Sonnenfeld and that lovely and unique 80s style.

    Quite possibly the best of the "teen films" of the 80's including the John Hughes ones.
    That's right I said it.
    It's also in style and wit the precursor to one of the best 90's TV shows, Parker Lewis Can't Lose.

    I loved this movie back in the day. One of the few from that era I can still watch.

    Another great teen comedy in the 80's. Jerry Mitchell is the classic HS nerd that works in the local bookstore. His life is no adventure, until he is assigned to write a review on local transfer that is a well known bully, Buddy Revell. Soon, an encounter leaves Jerry left to fac...( read more)e Buddy in an afterschool fight at 3:00pm. The school day is long as Jerry tries to get out of this fight! Hilariously done by Casey Siemasko who plays Jerry and Richard Tyson as Buddy. Funny and amusing, and the story was well written. :D
