Was popular in 1983
Worth owning for a taste of the sort of films that Hollywood released in droves in 1983. I admit I didn't love it when I first saw it then, because I expected more. And apparently the "more" should have been in it. That's right, this film was cut considerably then, so much so that Jacqueline Bissett felt the cut film did not portray her in the light she wanted. The end product sees her as a scathing nympho with no respect for anyone.

Hopefully, MGM will see fit to re-release this on DVD with the deleted scenes.

Not Bad But Not Great
This film is basically a teen comedy about life in a prep school, with a little drama thrown in related to the pressure put on the kids by the school and by their parents. Its main focus is the romantic and sexual fantasies of the students, mainly playboy Rob Lowe and nice-guy Andrew McCarthy. There's a little of "The Graduate" in here and a little "Dead Poets Society" as well, but those are both superior films. I enjoyed watching "Class" and do not dislike it; I just am less impressed with it than others seem to be. It's nice, generally shallow, teen fluff. If you're looking for a light way to pass a dreary afternoon, this might be just the ticket.

Excellent
I was a bit apprehensive about this movie when I bought the DVD. Already there were so many movies dealing with Oedipus complex. But this movie is a great one and class apart from many others dealing with on this subject.

The plot looked natural and the acting was good. Not only Bisset (from whom good acting is a natural expectation) but the others too. Even the sex scenes were not graphic, leaving a lot to imagination...that distinguished the movie from a mere sex flick.

Its worth buying this moview
