Movie Reviews of The Boyfriend School
Movie Review: Glad that it's on DVD, but why the title change?
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm glad that this film is finally on DVD. MGM has aimed to please by making this DVD a "flipper disc" to make both modern viewers and those stuck in the past happy. I would have preferred a dual layer, single sided disc, but oh well. Side A is a nice 16X9 Widescreen transfer, Side B is the modified Full Frame version. I think it's nice of MGM to offer both the Widescreen and Full Frame versions of this film, but in this day and age, they really only needed to provide the Widescreen version. The picture quality is excellent, much sharper and clearer than the VHS tape that HBO and Hemdale released in the 90's. My only question is why did they change the title from Don't Tell Her It's Me to The Boyfriend School? The movie hasn't been altered in any other way at all. It doesn't make any sense, especially when the song "Don't Tell Her It's Me" plays over the opening and ending credits. I was extremely pleased to see that MGM decided to include the theatrical trailer on the disc also, which is a bit strange, considering that the original title appears on it. But, no matter what they want to call it, I'm just glad that this film is finally on DVD.Movie Review: I love this movie!

We've been waiting forever for this to come out on DVD. I still laugh till I can't breathe when they're trying to be inconspicous and they both duck down and it looks like the car is driverless. Maybe I'm pathetic but this and "Sibling Rivalry" and "Soapdish" and "Delirious" all came out at around the same time, and I think they're the most hilarious movies ever. They don't make them like this anymore. This one is my favorite of all of them. Buy it, you won't regret it.Movie Review: "Don't Tell Her It's Me" is such a better title than "Boyfriend School" . . .

. . . makes it sound like it's a movie for pre-teens. That marketing agent should be sent back to the mail room. I saw this movie in my 20's and loved it. I found the VHS version after some hunting in my early 30's and I still love it. It's a good girly-movie with all the cheezy fun of a romance novel. (My husband actually likes it too - though he wouldn't exactly announce it.) If you like Shelly Long and Steve Gootenberg (sp?), you'll like this movie.Movie Review: Romantic Comedy Delight
Summary: 5 Stars
Sure, it's silly and fluffy, but it's just such good fun! Shelley Long is wonderful as dizzy Lizzie Potts, romance writer and meddler extrodanaire, and Jamie Gertz is adorable in the female lead. Based on Sarah Bird's excellent (and even better) book, The Boyfriend School is a sweet, silly romance that's bound to lift your spirits. None of the usual snark and male-bashing found in today's "romantic" comedies, either, which is a HUGE plus for me.Movie Review: The Boyfriend School

I loved this movie when I first saw it back in the1990's and I'm still loving it! Of course it was called, "Don't tell her its me". The story is touching and funny and the actors are very good. Steve Guttenburg is mmmm!, EYE CANDY! Shelly Long is such a kick has the sister and Jami Gertz is a sweet-searching-for-love-girl in her part. So very glad I could buy this movie. It will be my DVD treasure to keep!
