Member Rating:  
With a plot that is a cross between a teen, low-brow farce and a coming-of-age story, Class opens with scenes of two best friends -- nerdy whiz Jonathan (Andrew McCarthy) and carefree jock Skip (Rob Lowe) -- going around in lingerie; they also barf on a double date, break into a quiet meeting at a girls' school, and generally behave as emotional throwbacks. But when the nerd Jonathan is picked up in a Chicago bar by Skip's mother Ellen (Jacqueline Bisset), the tone changes completely. The affair between the student and the older woman is torrid until they rendezvous in New York and Ellen dumps Jonathan because she finds out he is not a Ph.D. candidate from Northwestern University. Meanwhile, Jonathan does not know who Ellen is until Skip brings him home for the Christmas holidays and the two clandestine, September-May ex-lovers come face to face with the truth. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, Rovi

    An enjoyable movie.

    It was really hard to watch at the beginning, with the abuse the main character endures, but as the plot unfolds it gets better. Not a lot better, but it does make you think about what can happen when an older woman gets together with a (much) younger guy.

    Yes   |   No

    I saw the preview to this movie on this dvd and decided not to watch this movie because this is a teenage guy movie. It minded me of a "Animal House" or "America Pie" type of movie. Therefore, if your as young as these guys; you will probably enjoy this movie flick. This is Definitely NOT a family movie!

    Yes   |   No
