Review of Welcome Home, Roxy Carmichael (1990) by Greg H — 29 Jan 2012

This movie did to 80s teen movies what the Altamont concert ( where a guy was killed by the Hell's Angels Bikers/ Security Team)did to large outdoor gatherings of hippies. Directed by those wacky pants Zucker Brothers' collaborator Jim Abrahams (Airplane ) this steaming pile of poo came out between their first 2 Naked Gun movies and tries to show.directorial range.that isn't there. The imminent return of the town's eppnymous girl done good sparks a fervor that includes an official Roxy Carmichael week blah blah blah you can pretty much guess the rest.

If you want to see the 80s brand of introspective yet entertaining and charming brand of teen comedy movie die a horrible death to the tune of a Melissa Ethridge soundtrack, This is the one for you . Im sure Winona Ryder would like to wipe thos clunker off her bio but as pointed out by hercharacter Dinky, it's good to want things.
