nieciebear Review of Combat High

Combat High (1986 TV Movie)

Kinda like Police Academy goes to Boot Camp

[7/10 · 25 March 2005]

This was one of my favorite made for TV movies of the 1980's. The plot revolves around two pranksters who have the choice of going to jail or to military school. The pranks they pull at the beginning of the film, which get them sent to the military school, are priceless. My personal favorite is where they switch the signs on the bathrooms so that a guy inadvertently goes into the girls' bathroom and then has a shocked look on his face. (Incidentally, this scene is my favorite because my cousin was an extra in this movie and he was the one who went into the "ladies room". He said it was actually the teachers' lounge.) Overall, I thought it was incredibly funny.
