Who thought Sean Astin, Pauley Shore and Brendan Fraser could carry a film like this. I mean, you have a former loser from the Goonies, some weird androgynous sycophant, and some big guy who only talks in grunts and groans. While the film followed many of the conventions of the typical teen drama, it did so with some fun and uniqueness. While this will rank as one of those really silly movies that had no business making a lot of money, it proved to be a nice escape from the typical collection of movies.
