Another Over-rated 80's Feel Good Flick

Rating: 6/10 (21 March 2007)

I can't say I hate this work, but I definitely think it's just another over-rated feel-good flick from a lost era. It has its cute elements, some good moments, and an overall entertaining story, but if you weren't in high school in the 1980's, or aren't in high school now with a longing for the 1980's, you'll find this one boring, dated, cliché as all heck, and a bit contrived, trite, and long-winded. It rambles in its sugar-coated sweetness, headed seemingly nowhere, going nowhere, and landing you nowhere for your trouble. It does have its entertaining moments, some sweet moments, and some good elements, but they deliver little pay off for your trouble.
I can't say I love it, but I don't totally hate it, either. I WAS a kid in high school in the 1980's.
It rates a 6.3/10 from...
