4.0 out of 5 stars Great movie, why's it not on Amazon??, March 30, 2009

By 

Frog Princess (Columbia, MD) - See all my reviews

This is a great, quintessential 80s movie, starring the never-aging Rob Lowe (Seriously, how does he do it?). It's not available on Amazon yet, but it just came out on WBshop.com in the archive section, if you're looking for it.
LATER POST: BUYER BEWARE!! So I bought and received my copy from WBShop's Archive Collection... It was an extremely disappointing purchase. I love the movie, but the quality of the entire product was poor and bootleg-looking. The package arrived unshrink-wrapped, with a broken case, the insert looks like it was made on a shoddy home printer, and the quality of the actual DVD-play is about the same as you'd see with a degraded VHS tape. When I called WB to ask why I'd been shipped a bootleg, the rep said this is how the Archive Collection is produced: a burned copy, not factory-reproduced. BUYER BEWARE!! I'd wait for a factory-produced and remastered edition, not the available one currently offered on WBshop...

4.0 out of 5 stars A Brat At Oxford, August 4, 2009

This review is from: Oxford Blues (DVD)

My wife was curious why "Oxford Blues" was included with Warners Archive collection. She thought these films were reserved for old black-and-whites and not for something she had such a vivid recall for. I hate to break it to her but this flick is 25 years old and Rob Lowe is no longer gracing the cover of "Tiger Beat". When this film came out I was in college and naturally I didn't see it because I was dismissive of this narcissistic pretty boy. Most of the so-called Brat Pack drew the ire of elitists notably Lowe and Judd Nelson, but that's another story. Lowe got my grudging respect after an inspired guest hosting gig on "Saturday Night Live". Two sketches stood out, a wicked impersonation of Arsenio Hall (in white face no less) and another called "Helmet Head". Lowe also did a memorable turn in "Wayne's World" a few years later. As for the film it's a breezy entertainment about a self-absorbed Vegas stud(Lowe) who enrolls at Oxford to show up the upper crust and land the most desirable woman in the U.K., Lady Victoria(Amanda Pays) in the process learns about himself and the importance of teamwork. Lowe has a certain smarmy charm and Pays and Ally Sheedy represent the polar opposites of cuteness. There's a certain cool factor here with the presence of Michael Gough, Alfred the Butler in "Batman", and Aubrey Morris, Mr. Deltoid from "A Clockwork Orange" in the cast. This is a lightweight affair but not bad.

4.0 out of 5 stars go Rob go!, November 1, 2004

This review is from: Oxford Blues (VHS Tape)

Isn't hard to be the new guy in town? Or in another country? That is how it was for Nick DeAngelo as he tried to fit in at Oxford. He worked at a casino in Las Vegas and he saw a beautiful woman that he noticed was famous. He grew hopelessly in love with this woman and vowed to follow her to Oxford. However, he soon learned that at Oxford, he was not part of the "in" crowd any longer. People were some of the worst snobs that Nick had ever known. But, he worked hard to make some friends including an American woman named Rona. And he was part of the rowing team.

I think someone should see this movie if they ever felt like they were snobbed in high school. Also, Rob Lowe's last scene during the credits where he puts on different clothes is really silly and great.
