VHS Movie Reviews of Degrassi High - School's Out [VHS]
Movie Review: An Eye Opener For anyone who's interested.
Summary: 5 Stars
Although it was alot different to the series, I still enjoyed the movie. Some bits were sad but some were pretty funny too. You can make your own mind about it but in my mind, it's a movie that some people can relate to. The situations that the characters get themselves into are so real that you can relate to what their going to. I'm glad that I bought the video and I'm glad that I own it on video. Schools out is number one in my book. A must for a teen who is going through those changes that the characters went through.Movie Review: Degrassi - a bittersweet ending
Summary: 5 Stars
I have to admit that I know what other people think of this ending to the journey through life with these kids. When sitting back to ponder my own quest for knowledge in life, I am reminded many times that life does, in fact, turn out this way. How many of us have made all the right choices? Not a one that I can think of. This was a fitting end in my mind to a classic and entertaining series. Pat Mastrioni aka Joey Jeremiah proves to us that he is a talented and wonderful actor by showing us how great he pulls off the part of the snake. I still love him and always will.Movie Review: The Ending Works
Summary: 5 Stars
This movie provided the Degrassi High series with a fitting end. I loved the show, in part because of the often controversial matters that were themes. Sure, the ending to this movie wasn't completely happy, but neither is real life, and if there is one thing that has always made Degrassi High different from other shows it was it's sense of reality. This movie was well done, and really gave the viewer a sense of closure on the lives of the kids of DegrassiMovie Review: I Love Degrassi as much as anyone, but.....
Summary: 2 Stars
....I must say that I was greatly disappointed and let down by the way the writers/producers chose to end such a fine series. Most of the characters are accounted for here, and if you miss one of you favorites, chances are you can catch a glimpse of him/her making a token appearance, dancing in the backround during the final few scenes. The main problem is that these characters, characters that we've come to know and love so well over the years, have been made very dark in this sorry video. Deceit, vengence, petty jealousy, and overall stupidity are the main virtues within the characters of the Degrassi 'kids', now. Without giving away plot specifics, here are a couple of examples to better illustrate my point: Joey, after having come so far in the way of 'growing up', does a complete 180 in this movie, and sinks to even greater depths of deceit by cheating on the ever trusting and unsuspecting Caitlin. He is made out to be an incredibly insensitive, lying weasel in this video. Meanwhile, Derek 'Wheels' Wheeler also suffers a major downturn -- again, after rebounding from so many other setbacks during the regular series -- that makes the viewer cry out to the writers "WHY CAN'T YOU GIVE THIS POOR KID A BREAK? HASN'T HE BEEN THROUGH ENOUGH? ". It looks very bad for poor Wheels. We are left with the knowledge that our friend will not have an easy time of it, and that's very unfair. It was unfair of the writer(s) to paint a none too rosey future for several of the Degrassi kids. Yes, life is often-times unfair, but it was just a movie. A movie which should have bid a very fond farewell to these good kids. Call it fantasy (wait a minute -- it IS fantasy, isn't it? I mean, they could have ended any way they wanted to) but I would have appreciated a good'ol- fashion happy ending for one and ALL. They deserved it, after having been so kind in helping us better educate our children. I do appreciate Playing With Time's effort, but I am forced to, at least in my own mind, re-write their Degrassi Movie. Mine has a much happier ending.Raditch
Movie Review: True to its spirit
Summary: 5 Stars
The makers of the Degrassi series must be incredibly proud of themselves. I saw every single episode back home in Puerto Rico and I can say it had a huge influence in my life. The show dealt with themes which mirrored things going on around me; it was a wonderful way to see that everything I was going through was indeed, normal and it also presented me with different ways to deal with each situation. The final episode was true to its spirit. I was rather sad at all the different twists and turns which befell the characters but was pleasantly surprised with just how appropriate each ending was. Wheel's,ending in particular, struck a chord (I won't spoil it for those who haven't seen it). In short, it was great finally seeing the last episode and getting reacquainted with Lucy, Snake, Wheels and of course, Caitlin and Joey!
