"Cusack's nerd-studs hang with cracked crews (Curtis Armstrong as whip-it-huffing seven-year high school senior; Bobcat Goldthwait wreaking havoc in a Godzilla suit) and lead spazzy sidekicks in fights for freedom from the tyranny of near-Aryan preppies, the frustrations of the high school food chain funneled into gleeful class-war, wish-fulfillment fantasies. Both films flopped. Cusack disowned them, and Holland's career as a writer-director stalled as quickly as it had started."
