Ski School

I wish to be there and skiing with that cute chicks! Especially with Ava Fabian And wanna see third part of this movie!!!! And Whistler ski base rocks!!!

This is a terrible, terrible movie the only redeeming factor is that there's * in it but thats not much of one. Dean Cameron is really really ugly and who ever the other guy is, is really ugly too. A horrible, horrible mash of crappy music and neon color. Plain and simple a complete waste of time do not watch it. And the extra two stars are for the *. I just could not get past Dean Cameron!! And many of the one-liners come off cheesy however there are a few lines that are funny. Overall I couldn't get into the movie at all really and Dean Cameron seriously needs to shave or at least trim his crazy old man eyebrows.

Dean Cameron stars as a ski instructor who battles another camp of instructors and finds love along the way in this surprisingly funny, light hearted, charming movie. While not top of the line it doesn't pretend to be, it accepts itself as it is, a harmless little comedy with some funny moments in it. Cameron does a great job and Charlie Spradling is stunning!!! On a scale of one to ten... 6

There are great tragedies of our time. 9/11. Darfur. All of the dozens of blood-drenched conflicts raging globally at any given time. Even... the death of Barbaro. And then there's the fact that this movie rated a sequel. Almost too horrifying to contemplate, but true. "Ski School 2" reunited the cast of this stinker. Why, Lord? Why? Imagine being locked in a tiny closet with a loud, drunken, sweating fat man convinced he's God's gift to comedy, that anything he says is funny. And farts? A laugh riot! If you can picture this ... save your money... you've already been drenched in the full, sticky "Ski School" experience. The lead actors - especially Fratkin and Cameron - are absolutely charmless, almost dementedly unfunny. They're as cheery as polio. But the director of "Ski School" apparently thinks they're the funniest, most endearing rascals this side of "Animal House". The women in this film are there simply to look adoringly at these jackasses and drop their bras. That's it. No personality. Barely able to make intelligible vocal sounds. This is how women are imagined by guys spawned at the bottom of high-school hierarchy - the ones who never got dates and could only imagine what "cool" attractiveness could possibly mean... "Ski School" has no temperature. I can't conceive of seeing the sequel. But then, I don't like to imagine falling into a wood chipper, either.

This is movie is probably generation-specific; I'll bet you could appreciate it much more if you saw it in it's day. Seeing it today, it comes across as innocent and light-hearted rather than laugh-out-loud funny. It's geared towards the slacker mentality of the early 90s: partying, goofing off and women. In the movie, there are basically two ski school groups who are at odds with each other: rich/elitist/serious skiers and slacker/party-focused lunatics. They use the Whistler Pageant competition to determine which group should remain at the resort and which should go. The film is clearly geared to high-school males. There's beer, nudity and lots of girls (none of which have any real speaking roles). There are a few colorful ski scenes which are interspersed throughout the movie, but the it mainly takes place indoors than on the slope. It may appeal to you if you're looking for a light-hearted teen-party movie (and moreso if you like ski themes). Otherwise, there's no point in seeing it.

This movie was just complete nonsense. Felt like something you'd watch in the 80s ripping off ideas from movies like porkys and the likes. It really bothered me the most that they're skiing in the mountains and yet at the lodge there are absolutely no signs of snow on the streets or anywhere else. I mean come on. Also had a problem with the scene of the team just trying to qualify to get to the final race. The contact cement was terrible I mean it was yellow and absolutely noticeable to an idiot! No one's gonna notice the competition stuck to it when they tripped? Really??? Or the ski flags being cut wouldn't noticed? Especially with so many people watching the event? Come on! And don't even get me started that every woman was ready to go to bed was the first guy she saw. This movie was just so poorly written and was not even entertaining. Just a waste of film if you ask me.

I considered giving this pitiful, soporific comedy a 1, but settled on a 2 for some reason. That shouldn't deter you from running as fast and as far away as you can from Ski School, a bottom of the barrel celebration of immature frat life. Of course, this frat is actually inhabited by a motley assortment of party animals who pretend to ski in their spare time (why they couldn't just stay at home to party is just one of the many unfathomable mysteries of Ski School). Naturally they have a run in with the toney head cheese of the school, who somehow allowed them to attend in the first place, and there's a 'climactic' competition between the two groups at the end of the film. I won't tell you who wins, but (***spoiler alert***) the film's amoral heart is revealed when the party house, led by smirking Dean Cameron, choose to cheat in order to compete. Ski School is a foul-mouthed, misogynistic piece of trash that will appeal to those who thought Animal House was a tad too arty.

It's a great movie for everyone who likes comedy. Two groups battle against each other both on and of the mountain. Reid Janssens, one of the leaders of a ski-class (section 1) takes skiing real serious and is sometimes an ego-maniac when it comes to teaching how to ski. The other leader (section 8) is Dave Marshak. The only thing he teaches to his class is partying and that ski-school is not learning how to ski. Reid wants to be King of the Mountain and is willing to take any risk to get rid of Dave. Dave on the other hand is setting up scenes to make section 1 like a couple of fools. The beautiful surroundings and, of course, the pretty women make this movie complete. I bought the video on sale and saw it more then 15 times, I guess. But it's still a great movie!

This is one of the movies that people will look back on and love! In a short period of time, the writers managed to make viewers breathe and live their characters lives. Everyone has their own personality in this movie, and they all get to deliver some great lines! The constant sight of topless women can get annoyingly repetitive, but that's overshadowed by the excellence of the rest of the movie.
