Soundtrack English; Soundtrack French; English Subtitles; Sensor Matic; CD Included A laid-back high school coach (Mark Harmon) reluctantly forfeits a Hawaiian vacation to teach remedial English to a class of likable misfits. This goofy comedy tells the sweetly inspiring story of the group of high school slackers who seem destined to fail until they land in the coach's class. As both students and teacher accept the fact that they must complete the course, all learn a great deal about themselves, their priorities, and friendship. Summer School Reviews: "...Harmon is appealing in his first feature film lead....He has enough charisma and acting chops to keep this film going..."
-- Camb., Variety "...Bright and bouncy....It's exceptionally good-natured and perceptive, and Harmon, in his first starring screen role, is a real charmer..."
-- Kevin Thomas, Los Angeles Times "The whole thing's a perfect storm of casting and creativity."-- Nicholas Fonseca, Entertainment Weekly Summer School | List Price | $14.98 (You save $4.49) | | Studio | Paramount Home Entertainment | | Orig Year | 1987 | | DVD Encoding | Region 1 | | All Time Sales Rank |  64666  | | CD Universe Part number | 7685409 | | Catalog number | 138114 | | Discs | 2 | | Release Date | Aug 05, 2008 | | Rating | PG-13 (MPAA) | | Running Time | 97 Minutes | | Additional Info | Widescreen; Special Edition; Dubbed; Subtitled | | Movie Details | Color; Letter Boxed; Widescreen; Special Edition; Dubbed; Subtitled; I Love the 80's Edition |

 $7.59   
The soundtrack to the sequel for Eddie & the Cruisers follows the basic blueprint of John Cafferty's songs for the first film -- they're all high-energy, pounding three-chord rock & roll, sounding a bit like Bruce Springsteen or Bob Seger. There may not be a song as good as "The Dark Side," but the music is still enjoyable for hardcore fans of the original. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine

| | Joe Satriani Crystal Planet CD (1998)
Summer School review
$6.75 
On CRYSTAL PLANET Satch provides his fans with exactly what they've come to expect: crunching riffs, soaring melodies, chord changes and solos from heaven. He deviates little from such past releases as THE EXTREMIST and SURFING WITH THE ALIEN, and as the saying goes: "if it ain't broke". That's not to say he doesn't stay contemporary, as "Raspberry Jam Delta-V" effectively dabbles in electronica as subtle background noise.
"Love Thing" is a beautiful ballad and potential single, and Satch is able to make the guitar "talk". There are also elements of funk ("A Piece Of Liquid") and metal ("With Jupiter In Mind"). But his skills shine through the most when he shreds, and nobody does it better. Quite simply, the man is a virtuoso and probably one of the most influential Instrumental Rock artists of his generation. He shows he can play at the speed of light while fitting all these speedy solos into the context of the song. CRYSTAL PLANET continues the legacy of a man who shows that no matter how much technology advances, there is no substitute for a wailin' guitar.
"A Train Of Angels" was ...

Guy Maddin (THE SADDEST MUSIC IN THE WORLD, MY WINNIPEG, CAREFUL) directs this moving silent satire about several families and the secrets they possess. Emotional yet thoughtful and infused with surrealist touches, the film offers an original and somewhat horrific view on the experience--the aching delicateness--of growing up. Through his unconventionally autobiographical, transcendently un-gimmicky methods, Maddin once again cuts to the core of emotional truth. ...
