Review of Back to School (1986) by Jamison R — 10 Apr 2010
Classic 80's slob comedy starring the incomparable Rodney Dangerfield as a self-made millionaire who enrolls in college to encourage his son's studies. Rodney's buoyant and twitchy personality keeps the paint-by-numbers plot going.
Baby-faced Robert Downey Jr. smirks his way through as the son's sideman - his Adam Ant wardrobe and hair style date the film like nothing else. Best moment is saved for a walk-on by the legendary Sam Kinison as Rodney's history teacher.
