Rarely have I longed for the hours lost watching a terrible movie than after
(and during) a screening of the atrocious Reform School Girl, a picture
released 11 years after its making on DVD (and a remake of an oldie), thanks to
a shortish appearance in it by Joey star Matt LeBlanc -- who, no, does not play
one of the girls.
B-lister Aimee Graham gets a rare starring role here as a good girl who gets
caught up in a random and dumbass crime (with LeBlanc), then gets sent to
reform school where she spends her time swabbing floors, inciting food fights,
exploring lesbian love (natch!), and throwing the big race at the "school"
track meet.
What???
This hodgepodge of awful cliches and random plot points isn't even excuse to
show off nubile ladies in various stages of undress (though there's a little of
that), as most of the film wants instead to tell you an earnest story about how
rough it is in women's correctional institutions. Well that doesn't work at
all. You want to show a movie about punishment? Videotape hapless viewers
forced to watch Reform School Girl and make it into a documentary. Midnight
Express's got nothing on that.
