Groucho ReviewsAugust 02, 2011Full of...goofy ironies, and while it ain't Molière, it is a pretty great entry in the teen-comedy genre. [Blu-ray]
TV GuideJuly 24, 2007Unfortunately, only about half of the many jokes and gags in the film are actually funny.
Film ThreatDecember 06, 2005I've rarely met anyone who didn't secretly love it passionately.
AboutFilm.comAugust 12, 2003Forget Citizen Kane. As a matter of history, this seminal film is unquestionably the finest work of cinema ever made. Required viewing for all students and fans of the art form.
