Summer School (Blu-ray), Comedy, Shout! Factory

SUMMER SCHOOL (1998) School's out, and Ocean Front High gym teacher Freddy Shoop (Mark Harmon) has big plans: summer in Hawai'i. But the school's vice principal has plans for Freddy too: teaching remedial English. Aloha, paradise—hello, Summer School. Director Carl Reiner (The Jerk) delighted fans and critics alike with this warm, perceptive comedy about a laid-back teacher relegated to teaching a class of likeable misfits, including a slasher-flick addict (Dean Cameron), his wacky sidekick (Gary Riley), and a sexy female surfer (Courtney Thorne-Smith). Kirstie Alley is the no-nonsense history professor down the hall who's keeping an eye on all the shenanigans—and on the handsome, irresistible Freddy. The road to academic success has never been bumpier, but to earn straight A's in laughter…take Summer School.
