4.0 out of 5 stars A Nice Story, Well Acted with a Good Feel, May 23, 2003

This review is from: Campus Man [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This is one of those movies that really can't be catagorized by Comedy/Drama/Suspense..etc. 'Campus Man' is a low-budget story produced in the times of Good-Natured movies directed at teenaged audiences (A dying breed of film by now). The movie features 'Touched By and Angel's' John Dye, Morgan Fairchild and a young model named Steve Lyon who appears in this..one of his only two movies. A young entrepreneur-to-be (John Dye) spends his last year at Arizona State University struggling to come up with the perfect marketing idea that will secure his future. He invests his new idea of a 'male calender for women' in his long-time friend and classmate (Steve Lyon), a handsome and promissing young diver for the school. When a tough buisness shark (Morgan Fairchild) and an outlaw loan officer put weight on his shoulders, he is forced to mend the damage to his friendship with Brett choose between a great deal of money and getting Brett's diving scholorship back. It's an 'Alex P. Keaton' type story which was popular in the 80s', very well done by all four lead actors with comedy and mild drama that makes it a nice summer vacation movie. It falls into the same catagory as 'Summer School', 'The Allnighter', and 'One Crazy Summer' and it's worth a try if you're a fan of 'beach-comedy' type stories from the 80s'.

(REAL NAME)   

This review is from: Campus Man [VHS] (VHS Tape)

"Campus Man" isn't quite sure what kind of a movie it wants to be. It appears to be a comedy at first glance but that is rather deceiving. In fact, it would've played a lot better if it had been more serious in tone. The "funny" parts are typical 80's cheesiness and aren't very witty. The plot involves an Arizona State University student who owes $10,000 in tuition and has 30 days to come up with it. He decides to produce a male athlete calendar in order to try and make enough money to pay his tuition and hopefully have some left over. Of course, things don't go exactly as planned and trouble ensues. Uneasy mix of comedy with some serious issues makes "Campus Man" an uneven disappointment. A harmless time filler, however, if you can catch it on TV.
