Scanialara You won't be disappointed!

Crwthod A lot more amusing than I thought it would be.

Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Dana An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

gwnightscream This 1990 sci-fi film stars Bradley Gregg, Malcolm McDowell, Traci Lind, Pam Grier, John P. Ryan, Patrick Kilpatrick and Stacy Keach. This takes place in Seattle and Gregg (A Nightmare on Elm Street 3) plays teen punk, Cody who is trying to stay clean from drugs and such. Soon, 3 High School teachers, Bryles (Kilpatrick), Connors (Grier) and Hardin (Ryan) make Cody suspicious because they're methods of discipline are extreme and he discovers they're androids. McDowell (Rob Zombie's Halloween) plays Principal Langford, Lind (Fright Night II) plays his daughter Christie and Keach (Escape from L.A.) plays Dr. Forrest, the creator of the androids. This isn't too bad, the cast is decent and the film obviously copies "The Terminator." Grier and Keach were also in "Escape from L.A." together 6 years later. I'd give this a view at least once.

utgard14 Director Mark Lester's follow-up to Class of 1984 takes place fifteen years in the future. In the previous film, the focus was on a teacher fighting back against the violent students at his high school. This time, the schools have become so overrun by (predominately white) gangs that the city of Seattle decides to try a new tactic -- using humanoid military robots as teachers. They place three android teachers in the school and they certainly do a good job of controlling the violence. That is, until their disciplinary efforts start going too far and they declare war on the gangs.A cheesy gem made at the end of the '80s; one of the many wonderful "B" movies that decade produced. It's all pretty silly stuff. From Stacy Keach's ridiculous appearance to the laughable idea that diminutive whitebread Bradley Gregg could be a tough gangbanger, the movie never really has a chance to be taken seriously (though it seems like it wants to be). The android teachers are played by the great Pam Grier, Patrick Kilpatrick, and John P Ryan. They're the best part of this, having a lot of fun hamming it up as the villains. Malcolm McDowell is the ineffectual principal. One of moviedom's all-time weirdos, Joshua John Miller, plays Gregg's buddy. Another unlikely gangbanger. All of the computer stuff, like the sound effects and the way the words are typed across the screen word processor-style, is dated greatness. The loud clothes and "futuristic" cars are goofy fun, as well. The special effects are...less than special.The movie's ultimate message is confusing. We're expected to sympathize with the teenagers but I really didn't, even though I was closer to their age when I first saw this. The best teens here are recklessly irresponsible lawbreakers and the worst are shown to be murderers and rapists. I had to laugh when the principal complained the students were being beaten for "mild infractions at best." Yeah, like when the one that was high pointed a loaded gun at a teacher or when another tried to rape your daughter? So mild. The movie starts with a premise that the reason this school had to resort to using these robots was because things had gotten so bad there was no other alternative, then expects us to feel bad that the criminal youth are being dealt with. It doesn't work. As a social commentary, it's a dud. But as a cheeseball B sci-fi action thriller it's pretty entertaining.

FlashCallahan Robot teachers have been secretly placed in the schools where the students have run riot. The teachers do a good job of controlling the unruly youngsters, until they go too far with their punishments, and some students get suspicious.....Its proper exploitation stuff, and with a title like this has, what else were you expecting?Well I for one was expecting something that was going to be a lot more fun, and although it does have the odd moment of genius, it gets just a little too serious, and a little too Red Dawn for its own good come the end.The concept though is fantastic. We have a hilarious looking Stacy Keach, finding eighties fashion in the late nineties, and getting Jackie Brown, The Sandman from Death Warrant, and so e old bloke to work in the school as wannabe Terminators.There is a sub-plot featuring the guy returning to the school, from a ne'er do well family, who just happens to find out what is going on, who just happens to fancy the headmasters daughter, who just happens to be Malcom McDowell, who knows about everything, but seeing as he only did two days filming, let's just say he isn't in it for long.On paper, it sounds brilliant, and I love the directors other work. He provided me with Showdown In Little Tokyo, but this waste just.........well, boring really.It's all over the place, the one liners are bad, even for the eighties, and they have royally ripped off a certain Cyborg.Back in the day, I'm sure it was essential viewing for the university student, but now, 16 years after the title suggests, it feels old, and generic.

nicko252008 If your a fan of gang movies or sci fi movies you will love this one. Kind of like a horror science fiction gang movie. A lil cheesy at times but overall very entertaining. Very bad ass movie. The year is 1999 gangs have taken over major American cities, so no fire zones get created, where cops don't even patrol because their ridden with violence and gangs. Sounds amazing right? It IS!! Then the teachers are military cyborgs that end up going crazy and killing students. Def check this movie out! Such a cool unique movie, Some younger kids probably won't enjoy this movie. You have to appreciate 80's special effects to the likes of the terminator. Actually their were a couple of scenes in this movie that reminded me of the terminator. Go see this movie now.
