Review of Risky Business (1983) by Cameron F — 16 Apr 2016

Risky Business (1983) ???

Refreshing, mature comedy about an anxious teenage boy who, while his parents are away, invites a prostitute over(!) . . . but soon finds the situation increasingly problematic. Sharp, often very funny, with a star-making role for Tom Cruise. Unfortunately film also doesn't know when (or where) to quit. Still, there's a lot going for it, including a highlighted dancing sequence of "Old Time Rock 'n Roll" (a now-classic scene).
