Review of Fast Times at Ridgemont High (1982) by Hugh J — 20 Oct 2009
Maybe it's cause I saw it about three decades too late or maybe it was too hyped up for me but it's definitely overrated, in my opinion. Phoebe Cates in the red bikini was every bit as good as I imagined it, the surprising nudity from Jennifer Jason Leigh was obviously welcome and I got a few laughs now and then but the movie as a whole was disappointing.
It was cool to see all the famous faces before they were famous but it just wasn't as funny as I had hoped it would be. Good soundtrack, though. "She must be somebody's baby...".
