4.0 out of 5 stars
Good Michael J. Fox movie, December 19, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Poison Ivy [VHS] (VHS Tape)
This is a good family comedy with Michael J. Fox. Dont confuse it with the other Poison Ivy movie with Drew Barrymore. The Michael J. Fox comedy Poison Ivy came out in 1985. It centers around a kids camp counselor (Fox) who gets a secret crush with another counselor (played by Nancy McKeon from the TV show Facts of Life). This movie is currently only available used but is worth getting if you are a Micharl J. Fox fan.

A camp movie classic!, February 1, 2010
This review is from: Poison Ivy [VHS] (VHS Tape)
I picked this movie up at a discount store years and years ago.
In fact, it's one of my only reasons to hold on to a VCR.
Michael J. Fox plays a camp counselor with his eyes set on Nancy McKeon's camp nurse.
Other plots center around the campers in Fox's bunk. We have the introverted writer, the fat kid, the golden boy, the sports star...
It's a seriously charming movie. It's as dumb as any made-for-TV production is, but there's so much delight inserted into this movie that it falls into the category of movies like The Goonies and Fast Times at Ridgemont High. If you grew up with it, the movie holds so much importance that it's hard to forget - or even think critically about.
I wish this movie would get released on DVD. But in the meantime, at least it's out there on VHS.
