... even the facile crudeness of a movie like "Porky's" seems to have demanded too much of screenwriters Charles Bolt and Terence Mulcahy...

Utterly inconsequential, but it at least provides a nostalgic look at its stars circa 1984.

Great 80s movie, starring Demi Moore and Jon Cryer early in their career. Not usually a fan of RomComs but really liked this one

Um Caso Muito Sério (1984) #IMDb #MovieReview 3,5 ⭐️ Garoto de 16 anos e fotógrafo se envolve com aspirante de cantora de 22 e procura ajudá-la. Comédia romântica que lembra Curtindo a Vida, mas tem seu charme e fofura. Bom filme!

A nice but not very good comedy about a teenage boy (Cryer) and his obsession with a singer (Moore). It's ok.

Teen photographer develops a (slightly disturbing) obsession with 22 year-old aspiring rock singer Demi Moore, with intentions of vaulting her to stardom. Another 80s teen movie that could use a touch of John Hughes magic, not to mention some more appealing supporting characters.

Demi Moore in the 80's and the initial part of the male lead, the only parts which deserve any note
