Movie Reviews of Tuff Turf
Movie Review: Classic High school 80's movie
Summary: 5 Stars
To all fans of Kim Richards and a young nobody(James Spader). This good guy, bad guy 80's movie captures some of the previous high school movies flair, such as Reckless, Karate kid and My Bodyguard except with it's own unique spin with a beautiful Frankie (Kim Richards)and Morgan(James Spader)just moving from a rich area in Connecticut to a middle class area in Los Angeles. The backdrop are areas of Los Angeles's San Fernando valley and some parts of Beverly Hills and West L.A. ala Karate Kid area. Frankie plays Nick's girlfriend who still stinging from her mother's death, mixes up with Nick and plays bait to hold up unsuspecting men for money. With an excellent movie soundtrack featuring the late Jim Carroll and Jack Mack and the Heart Attack, it throws in just enough comical pinnings to make this somewhat serious teen movie have a light edge. What makes this movie attractive are the actors and the excellent performance of Paul Mones who plays the bad guy Nick and his never ending pursuit of Morgan because of the threat to take his girlfriend away and him to lose control of his repuation as the bully. Also Ironman (Robert Downey Jr.) plays Morgan's best friend Jimmy who also plays drums for two Jim Carroll songs. This movie was not advertised to the mainstream but ended up being a very popular movie with a solid story and good perfomances by Paul Mones and James Spader and a young Robert Downey.
