Pretty Smart

I remember staying up until 2 in the morning to watch this one on Cinemax after dark. Had to wait for the parents to go to bed before I would chance watching it. It had some moments of humor and a few TnA shots. The one line I remember the most and the reason I bought this on VHS was for the comment right before the tennis match where Zigs says to one of the prep boys regarding her sister, "We are thinking about having her spayed." Unfortunately in the copy I bought this line has been edited out with about 15 minutes or so of other scenes that I remember. Really unfortunate, wonder why anyone would do that? I think that the unedited version that I saw had quite a few more laugh lines as well as most of the nudity. Guess that the censors were working overtime on this one. Oh well.

2 trouble-making girls get sent off to boarding school in Greece. Just another typical 80's movie, with no substance or acting ability, just rebel kids getting into wacky situations. Not really as bad as many movies, but really boring. At least this one has some attractive girls (Tricia Leigh Fisher) to look at instead of just a bunch of nerds. And what is it about dumb 80s movies that they have these great theme songs? Weird.

Trisha Fisher's scenes were at least interesting in this otherwise dull, pointless film.

I wouldn't recommend sticking around past the opening theme song, which is great. Also sung by Trisha Fisher.

I recently watched Pretty Smart (1987) on Tubi. The storyline follows a young lady sent to a European boarding school against her wishes who uncovers a scandal involving the headmaster profiting from selling pictures of the students. She rallies the ladies to help her expose the headmaster.

Directed by Dimitri Logothetis (Slaughterhouse Rock) and starring Patricia Arquette (True Romance), Tricia Leigh Fisher (C. H. U. D II), Dennis Cole (Dead End City) and Joely Fisher (The Mask).

The film presents classic 80s premise, humor, characters, and dialogue. While the plot offers a realistic scenario, the resolution takes an unrealistic approach, relying on the audience's affection for the characters to overlook the far-fetched antics. The ladies in this are gorgeous, as you'd expect, and there's plenty of topless sequences to keep your attention in an otherwise average film.

Ultimately, Pretty Smart is a forgettable film, save for its attractive cast. I'd rate it a 4/10 and suggest skipping it.

No, not the closing credits - I wouldn't recommend you stay that long! No, I'm talking about the opening credits! The first 5 minutes is all I recommend you sit through, as it is the only thing that contains anything related to a plot, and you get to sit through a rockin' song! If you can stay awake any longer than that, I commend you!
