Summer School (Blu-ray)

"ENDEARING, CONVULSIVELY FUNNY ... SUMMER SCHOOL IS A RARE DELIGHT." – Bob Thomas, Associated Press

School's out, and Ocean Front High gym teacher Freddy Shoop (Mark Harmon) has big plans: summer in Hawai'i. But the school's vice principal has plans for Freddy too: teaching remedial English. Aloha, paradise — hello, Summer School. Director Carl Reiner (The Jerk) delighted fans and critics alike with this warm, perceptive comedy about a laid-back teacher relegated to teaching a class of likeable misfits, including a slasher-flick addict (Dean Cameron), his wacky sidekick (Gary Riley), and a sexy female surfer (Courtney Thorne-Smith). Kirstie Alley is the no-nonsense history professor down the hall who's keeping an eye on all the shenanigans — and on the handsome, irresistible Freddy. The road to academic success has never been bumpier, but to earn straight A's in laughter ... take Summer School.
