I want to talk to someone through their dental implant.
Val Kilmer is hilarious. By far my favorite actor and he really shines in this role that was truly perfect for him
This movie doesn’t get the respect it deserves as far as 80s movies go. Take the time and watch it, you won’t be disappointed.
little dated but a lot of laugh out loud moments.It’s playful and a underdog movie.Val Kilmer makes this one creative and fun. Don’t miss it
It’s surprisingly good. It came out when I was in 11th grade, I can’t believe I never heard of it. Val Kilmer is excellent!
One of the unsung heroes of 80s cinema. Fresh cast, big humor and lots of fun. Holds up well even 40 years later. Celebrates intelligence!
Val is so cool in this low budget 80s classic
Kilmer was real genius. This movie was perfectly matched w/ his comedic timing. Supporting cast not all up to snuff. One of top coms of 80's
80s buddy film in a gifted school. Hijinks ensue. Funny for the time and rewatchable.
80s classic. Val Kilmer is effortless charismatic. Comedic gem.
