Fun Facts: The film is included on the film critic Roger Ebert‘s “Most Hated” list.

 

Ami Dolenz, was 20 years old when she played a 15-year-old Katie Simpson.

 

Film critic Gene Siskel hated this movie so much that he stated on “Siskel & Ebert” that it almost made him quit his job. Yet he stated that later the same day he saw a better teen comedy Say Anything… (1989) and it encouraged him not to quit.

 

Summary: A radio station manager becomes more overprotective when her 15-year-old daughter went from awkward to a hottie.

 

The Review: What kind of teen film is this? It’s boring and pathetic! Tony Danza completely failed as a father. It’s basically ‘Say Anything’s’ evil twin.
