One of the best 80's teen movies


I fell in love with this movie and consider it one of the best of the teen movies ever! I had it on VHS and fortunately found it on DVD before I wore the tape out. I watch it about 3 or 4 times a year.

Other teen movies I really enjoy are Shag-The Movie, Last American Virgin and of course, all three Porky's.

This movie along with Last American Virgin are very underrated.

Yes movies from the 80's were and will forever be the greatest. I miss the 80's so much :(

80's Comedy's Rule Mischief Is My All Time Favorite Comedy

Check Out These Classic 80's Comedy's As Well

2. Screwballs
3. Private School

agreed, another incredibly hot chick: Jordan (Betsy Russell) in Private School... would've taken her over the Phoebe Cates in that movie, but not the Phoebe from Fast Times...

Sorry to interrupt the Mischief love guys, but I really don't get the love for this film. At best, Mischief is a decent time-waster and it's awfully generic and forgettable at worst. Had it not been for Kelly Preston's nude scene this film would be totally forgotten about.

There's much better 80's teen flicks. I'd even rather watch Secret Admirer (also starring Preston) over this.

I would agree with this accurate, albeit somewhat harsh, assessment.

reply

Yeah.

Its far from being the best BUT it has does have the best ever nude scene in a teen flick. Kelly Preston's nude scene is absolute perfection. The stuff dreams are made of!

reply

no way, it doesn't hold a candle to movies like Fast Times At Ridgemont high, FB's Day Off or The Breakfast Club





so many movies, so little time

I agree with you. Only seen it twice. But it is one of the best. My list includes "Some Kind of Wonderful". I didn't like the Porky's movies. Last American Virgin is interesting. I liked "She's All That" for a later teen movie.
