| Los Angeles TimesKevin ThomasProud to be junk food, but it still tackles the serious subjects of illiteracy, teen-age pregnancy and young adult alcoholism. [22 July 1987] |
| USA TodayJack CurryHere are some of Summer School's favorite things: idiocy, illiteracy, irresponsibility, drunkenness, dumbness and debauchery. Piqued? [24 July 1987] |
| Chicago Sun-TimesRoger EbertA comedy so listless, leisurely and unspirited that it was an act of the will for me to care about it, even while I was watching it. |
| User ReviewKeith BThis movie is a riot. But it's a really bad movie. I say "Rent it", but with the caveat that you should not have high expectations. Fine art, this is not. Following the antics of an oddball group which is reminicent of the group of goofballs in the Police Academy franchise, you are faced with rude passengers, uppity stereotypes, and a little boy who doesn't want his nuts crushed. Keep in mind that the Police Academy characters look downright COMPETENT compared to the characters you will find in Stewardess School. |
| User ReviewScott M"Stewardess School" stars some recognizable actors in an all-round bad movie. Don Most was best known for playing Ralph Malph on "Happy Days" and Julia Montgomery was known for "Revenge of the Nerds." Brett Cullen is the only one who salvaged his career after this stinker, going on to star in "Lost" for several seasons. It's a typical '80s comedy: loser guys figure out how to hook up with hot chicks with hijinks to follow. This premise was done much better in 1985's "Private Resort." In a post 9/11 America, the movie's sour notes are just that much more flat. |
