Colégio só para Moças

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.

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.

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!

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.

Ogling the girls at Ogilvy...

I don't care what the negative reviewers say of it, I liked it. Especially remembered for the come-uppance Crawley gets coming to him at the end when the girls chant "Crawley, Crawley, Crawley", evoking images of relentless persecution. I had a tough time finding it on DVD years ago, the search went on for very, very long. It was years since I had first seen it, and the movie was different from what I remembered, but I was just relieved to finally own it in a proper way. VHS sucks!

A feast for 80s fans. The look is very, very 80s (well, duh! of course! and you can't get any better than the real thing) in a good way. Download the trailer on VuClip for a quick sneak peek.

Maybe the negative voices are from viewers who were offended? Hidden cameras and a stash of sneaked videotaped indiscretions are bound to anger the prudes out there. People, it's all just a lot of fun, lighten up! Consider it a little jewel from the Late Eighties.
