Great movie. If you want to know exactly what it was like to be a Southern California High School student in the 1980's, this is your movie. Seen through the eyes of an exchange student, we view the locals from a true outsider's point of view.

Many have compared this movie to that other 1980's High School epic, "Fast Times At Ridgemont High". The difference between the two movies is that, while they both explore the 80's Southern California student stereotypes of the day, "All American High" is the real deal, with real people doing real things. You will either identify with some of the films real life characters, or laugh at their now quaint pre-9/11 behavior, either way you will enjoy this piece of history from a long gone era.

To my mind, the original movie was a 10, but with the additional newly filmed material included in the 2015 update, "All American High" goes to the head of the class and becomes a 10+.

An irreverent look at a year in the life of a typical suburban high school: Torrance High School in Torrance Unified District, California.
