5.0 out of 5 stars A Lost Gem, July 23, 2004

You're probably wondering why I'm rating this film so damn high. It's because I have a particular taste for this. I love this film. I'm a huge Kevin McDonald fan and the role he plays is just priceless. So, seeing that this film finally came to DVD, I'm not overjoyed, I'm ecstatic.

The film is simple. Really bad class make a foolish mistake after Principal tells them to, Senator with bad plot to President sees bad class, and wants to bring bad class to Capitol Hill to ruin President. It's simple, see? But, the antics that follow are so golden, so hysterical. Especially Chong's role as the sedated bus driver. Matt Frewer is also classic as well as Jeremy Renner and Rob Moore...both who should be in more films.

The film also boasts a killer soundtrack that I will always listen to, to this day. With rock and a great cast and some hysterical moments, this is a definite to your DVD collection. It's a bit dated, mostly because the times and all, but it's so good. I say this with all honesty, this movie really deserved better than it received, and since I have an opportunity to review this first, I shall put this movie to it's high rank! A ha!

Buy this...NOW. It's...great.

Good comedy for rainy day times.

This review is from: National Lampoon's Senior Trip [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I'll never forget when I heard that Tommy Chong was going to be in a movie on the previews and I was a Cheech and Chong fan at the time and although I didn't see it in the movie theater cause I wasn't old enough to watch it but we rented it and me and my family were laughing our butts off, and we taped it when it came on Starz movie channel and the tape got destroyed a few months later from watching it constantly, but a few years ago I decided to buy this movie on VHS (not sure if it's released on DVD or not) and I'm glad that I own this movie.

The movie takes place in Fairmount High School somewhere located in Ohio where this persistant principal makes sure that the students show up to class on time, but here we meet the main characters Dags and Reggie who are stoners show up late to class in an old Jeep and they crashed the pole and it lands on the principal's brand new car!! That scene was hilarious, then they cause a havoc at the assembly and the students decide to skip school and go party at the principal's house but unfortunately the principal finds out about it he is MAD!! There are some hilarious scenes at the party where I won't mention, then the principal gives the students a Saturday detention and the students claim that the government sucks and the principal wants the students to write a 500 word letter to the president about how they feel, then the president reads the letter and he really thought well of it and he invites the students to Washington D.C. to express themselves about how they feel about the school system, we then get to meet Senator John Lerman who is a bad guy cause he wants to make the president a laughing stock and he wants to become the president and the students go off to Washington D.C. and there are a bunch of hilarious moments throughout the movie which I'm going to keep for myself, and Tommy Chong plays the stoner bus driver who is really hilarious throughout the movie.

I was surprised to hear that the movie got really bad reviews from the critics and I think that their problem is that they don't have much of an open mind and it bombed in the box office which was unfortunate, if you're in the mood for a comedy where you just want to sit down and laugh, this movie is recommended.

This movie is definitely worth it if you are into crazy school kid humor. It's a bummer that there aren't really any good special features. Oh well. Long live the Dope King!
