Jelisije J A new principle comes to a ghetto school and fights for the soul of the school and its students. not necessary a bad film but its a film I never want to rewatch for a genre that I never cared for. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 11/23/24 Full Review Jeffrey P There were a lot of these types of movies in the mid to late 1980's and early 1990's that dealt with inner city blight and urban decay and getting the rest of America to sympathize and work with it. As far as movies go, it’s an average movie of average quality, that’s amusing enough to loosely keep viewer attention. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 08/25/24 Full Review Michael W This dramedy was great. James Belushi, Louis Gossett Jr., Michael Wright, Rae Dawn Chong, Jacob Vargas, and the rest of the cast did a great job in this movie. The plot of the movie was intense, dramatic, and humorous. It's about fighting to save a school that is suffering from drugs and crime. If you haven't seen this movie yet, check it out sometime. Don't listen to the bad reviews this movie has gotten. Those people have terrible tastes in movies. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/11/24 Full Review Mon B I'd forgotten the violent high school movies of the 80's- they seem very cliched and stereotype now. But it's still a fun look back. You love the buddy cop friendship of Lou Gossett and Jim Belushi, you love the bad kid that turns it all around in the end, and the music was the worst of the 80's. We ate these up for some reason. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 10/06/23 Full Review Sean M Pretty good 80s movie. Very cheesy at times. The ending seemed rushed though. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 05/08/23 Full Review Josh G Education and violence go hand in hand, drive your motorcycle through your work place and stop crime, wear a suit a ditch the cape. It's silly over the top and almost kindergarden cop, but not quite it's so 80's, so very 80's. I had fun. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 04/14/23 Full Review Read all reviews
