Such an academy!!
14 May 2004
A screwball, sophomoric, made-on-a-shoestring fluff-of-a-cheapo by the mentally 'very questionable' folks over at Mad Magazine, this hum-dinger of a bomb was Ralph 'Karate Kid' Macchios' feature film debut.

As lame, dunced-up and pointy-headed as this flick is, on a slow night [reeeeeeally slow!], I can't seem to stop myself from pulling this one off the shelf, now and again and vegging out in front of it with a bag of chips, a cold drink and a box of rotten fruit for throwing!

Check out Ralphs 'New Yawk by-way-of-corner store' drawl; check out the smoldering munitions insctrutor [by way of lovely Barbara Bach] who knows her way around a fully loaded 'weapon'! Check out the young misanthrope rejects from a geek festival who become Ralphs cohorts in misadventure in this dust bin disaster and most of all...most of all, sit up straight for the over starched commandant when he's on screen or you may get a stiff "DO IT AGAINNNNNN!" reproach from him! He's a very disturbed egg that one! And in need a a very BIG pill!.

Dumb as this movie is, it's one of those i keep coming back to because it's lovable, way [WAY!] off the quirk-meter and just a friggin' hoot!
