Owen Gleiberman Entertainment Weekly Rated: B- Sep 7, 2011 Full Review Richard Harrington Washington Post Class of 1999 gets a D for dumb, dull and derivative. Jan 1, 2000 Full Review Entertainment Weekly Rated: B- May 1, 1990 Full Review Eddie Harrison film-authority.com …Class of 1999 deserves a gold star for trying, it’s got some great cult performers acting up big time, and plenty of mad action… Rated: 3/5 Feb 18, 2023 Full Review Eve Tushnet Patheos 1984 has a certain grim conviction in spite of its soapiness; this felt more soulless, and the action bored me, but I admit I'm not really into that kind of movie as a rule. Oct 21, 2022 Full Review Chris Jackson Starburst Everything about Class Of 1999 screams 1980s, which is no bad thing of course. The fashions, dialogue and soundtrack are almost a perfect snapshot of the era, despite the film being set right at the tail end of the 20th century. Rated: 8/10 Feb 22, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews

A'meia M One of the most badass films of the 90s!! I love the action, things getting blown up, the sci-fi and my favorite character Cody Culp! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/16/24 Full Review F.A.F.O CALI TO DE W Of course this movie wasn't a Oscar contender and it wasn't meant to be that's the point but the fact that people don't like this movie shows me what little imagination and sad life they live Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 06/25/24 Full Review Horror fan 4 A fantastic science fiction thriller from 1990. The special effects are on point and it's as good as I remembered it. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 06/15/24 Full Review Ryan T Very entertaining it's your typical sci fi action movie of that time with a twist. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/24/23 Full Review Josh G The 80's at it's finest when Dj tanner dates abs boy, evil robot teachers are here to kick butt and murder everyone who doesn't obey. This is a kick ass, fast paced awesome scifi film from start to finish. Awesome! Awesome! Awesome! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 12/08/23 Full Review DanTheMan 2 Class of 1999 is certified B-movie genre goodness, take the unruly setting of its predecessor but this time mix it with Terminator Teachers and the dystopia of Escape from New York. Everything about Class Of 1999 screams 1980s. The fashions, dialogue and soundtrack are almost a perfect snapshot of the era. It's completely insane and totally unrestrained in the best way imaginable, more than deserving of a Gold Star. Plenty of cult movie actors including the likes of Malcolm McDowell, Stacy Keach, John P. Ryan, Patrick Kilpatrick and Pam Grier; all having the time of their lives delivering on the movie's made cap premise. It's violent, sweary and full of cheesy dialogue. Naturally, the sci-fi-led effects are cheap, cheerful and, most importantly, practical, in keeping with the budget. It's the sort of film that nowadays would go straight to DVD without so much as a blink of an eye. Acquired taste? For sure. Coolly anarchic in a B-movie way? Definitely. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 09/26/23 Full Review Read all reviews
