5.0 out of 5 stars Nostalgic , Yet Well Aged Comedy ! Jan 12 2003
Format:VHS Tape
This 1986 comedy never misses or loses it's comical beat (not even in 2003) !It is still one of my favorite comedies from the 80's. Whenever I view this tape now in the 21st century,oh boy, does it ever bring back memories of high school and the absurdly and fashionably challenged of the 80's ! So, of course the film will look simply outdated;but, so what ?! The plot's not very deep either. Just a simple tale of two guys going to charm school for a little bit of social climbing and to see who gets the girl (away from a rich goon)...It's the entire cast of dysfunctional and socially challenged misfits taking ettiquette lessons that is simply worth watching over and over ( Marsha Wharfield from Night Court fame as the cop with an attitude/aggressive problem) !

Whoopee Boys reminds me of what made Paul Rodriguez a hysterical and very talented, funny Latino comedian. His pure rawness and raunchiness keeps the viewer's attention!Another comical character of curiosity is the nerd of nerds actor Eddie Deezen who played Eddie Lipschitz as a geek who really made the the hysterics of going to charm school complete with Rodriguez' antics. What ever happened to Deezen? As for the other actors, unfortunately Denholm Elliot(Bavarian Luminati instructor) passed away a few years ago and was better known for his role as the kooky Marcus Brody in the Indiana Jones films. Michael O'Keefe would later star as Roseann Bar's brother in-law married to sister Jackie of the Roseann Show.He later married singer Bonnie Raitt in real life.

Yes, the comedy is worth having this put on dvd. Shame on the studios for not doing it ! Those of us growing up as teens when this film came out will still truly appreciate it's crass humor as well as have a flood of 80's memories. Check out when the guys crash the Palm Beach party held in the honor of "Ralph","one of the greatest minds of our time" heh heh...and don't forget the guys dressed up like Miami Vice rejects for the memorial/party!...

I don't know about anyone else's copy of this film on VHS, but I still get a kick out of the B- movie preview of "Girls' Night Out" with again the crazy music and clothing of the 80's !...The preview shows a young and sexy Daphne Zuniga, Virginia Madsen, and some unknown 80's girl named Cindy Gibb...Wow, truly a sign of the times...

5.0 out of 5 stars Where's the DVD? Jun 28 2004
By J. Lee
Format:VHS Tape
I know about ten people that love this movie! I am one of them. I wish they would put it on dvd! That would be way better, but I guess for now I will have to settle for the video! This movie is so goofy and silly, and that's what I love about it. One of the funniest movies from the eighties that I have seen. A real cult classic with all of my friends!

5.0 out of 5 stars I'm Fan #29 Of This Movie Jan 5 2004
By A Customer
Format:VHS Tape
I would like to party with all the people who like/love this film. Especially those who have taken the time to write a review about it! The film is hilarious. Eddie Deezen's finest work to date, except as the voice of Mandark in Dexter's Lab. This needs to be on DVD.

5.0 out of 5 stars Do Fish have testicles?
It took a rare brave man such as Paul Rodriguez to pose this lifelong dilemma to the masses. This was Paul Rodriguez in his Heydey, when he was doing those HBO Prison comedies. Read more
