Nick O May 22 The Ramones are the greatest band ever and this awesome Roger Corman classic portrays them as being as big as the Beatles. That’s the world I wanna live in! See more thiago s @Thiagostone Feb 10 Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as músicas podem ser mais ou menos, mas o elenco quase não ajuda em nada, e a história é meio desinteressante, teve ainda a presença dos ramones, mas não trouxe tanta relevância para o filme.

The leader of the students, Riff Randell (P. J. Soles), is the biggest Ramones fan at the school and also the worst behavioral problem, in that her disciplinary record fills an entire filing cabinet. She waits in line for three days to get tickets to see the band, hoping to meet Joey Ramone so she can give him a song she wrote for the band, "Rock 'n' Roll High School". When the tyrannical Principal Togar takes her ticket away, Riff and her best friend Kate Rambeau have to find another way to meet their heroes: winning a radio contest... This Roger Corman high school musical comedy b-movie is a slight mess with The Ramones as the focal point. Nice to see the charming PJ Soles in the lead, but the rest is quite forgettable. Trivia: Corman originally wanted Cheap Trick or Todd Rundgren to play the band, but due to a conflict of schedules, he was forced to find an alternative. The Ramones were suggested by Paul Bartel, one of the actors in the film. (Via Wikipedia) See more Kenneth L 12/16/2023 I enjoyed this as a kid. Watching it as an adult was good nostalgic fun. It is by no means a good movie, but it is entertaining. See more Read all reviews
