Perhaps there is too much casual rebelliousness and not enough (in fact hardly any) getting down to serious work, but this colorized view of teenage school kids in the seventies certainly has plenty of action - particularly what we might call thoughtless actions - which the script always excuses, hardly ever justifies and never condemns. Although approaching adulthood, the rebellious teenage school kids are always in the right, no matter who they ridicule, steal from, abuse or endanger. This said, the movie is compellingly acted by every one of its large cast of players, and it is directed not only with a great deal of competence, but a certain amount of style. The excellent print I watched was on a DVD in Mill Creek's "Drive-In Cult Classics Collection".
