I wasn't a big fan of License to Drive when it came out and I haven't seen it since the early 90's and I wasn't expecting much from this tonight. The only reason why I even grabbed this off the Library shelf was that there wasn't anything else for me to watch and the other thing that appealed to me was getting a chance to see Heather Graham in the movie that I first discovered her in. As much as I love her, this movie is probably something she would rather forget because she is not very good in this. No one is for that matter. But seeing her in this one, it's astounding that she hasn't aged one bit. Still looks the same today as she did all those years ago. As for the Corey's, I've never been a fan of either one. Well, Lost Boys and Lucas is really the only thing of Corey Haim that didn't suck. Cory Feldman on the other hand is an enigma and I still don't know how he ever got employment in Hollywood. Everything that is bad about his acting is on display here.

As for the movie, it's typical of what types of High School comedies were coming out in the late 80's. Lowest common denominator fluff that is more background noise than anything of merit. Everything about the movie is predictable. This is definitely a Skip. I still love you Heather! Call me!

Heather Graham is in the movie?  Was she 12 in it or something?

This has been on my instant queue but I've never really felt the compulsion to watch it.  Sounds like I'm not missing anything.

You're not missing anything.

Seems like one of those where I'm better off writing out what I think it would be instead.  The Heather Graham thing intrigues me though.

You can write something better without even thinking about it. Heather was the only reason why I decided to revisit the movie. Beyond that, it's pretty forgettable.
