Most helpful review Rock 'N' Roll High School

Gabba Gabba Hey!

By Clucky from Cardiff, Wales , 10 May 2004

[Highly rated reviewer]

This is basically a film of two halves. The first focuses on the running battle between the rebellious Ramones loving student Riff Randal and the new head of her high school Ms Togar. The second is essentially an extended music video of The Ramones.

Whilst you don?t have to be a Ramones fan to enjoy this film it would certainly help but there?s enough laughs on offer, especially from Clint Howard?s character, to extend its appeal to a wider audience. 3 out of 5.

Fun but Dumb

By a customer from Wimbledon , 19 Aug 2005

This is definatly one of those movies that has not aged well with time. I originally rented it because I liked it when I was younger but now it just seems a bit dumb. The music is still great, and for any Ramones fant his is required viewing, however the plot is obvious and has been done a million times better by a million other people. If you''re looking for a fun teen movie watch 'Fast times at Ridgemont High', if you're watching it to see some Rock and Roll just watch 'Ramones - End Of The Century '

So bad it's good

By a customer from eastbourne , 09 Apr 2005

This is terrible and strangely fascinating. I had no idea The Ramones were such tarts as to make a film like this. The comedy highlight is the 'extra' interview with the producer who takes it all so seriously

Like Punk Rock Never Happened

By LEIGH70 from DENBIGHSHIRE , 10 Feb 2004

The amazing thing about this film is how gentle it is - I was expecting something much more raucous, considering those scuzzy NYC punk rock brudders The Ramones both 'act' (I use the term loosely) in the movie and supply most of the soundtrack. That said, it's great fun and a joy to watch. Highlights are the Ramones live set and the explosive finale when the students finally get their revenge on the evil principle. See it!
