Just One of the Guys

80's cult classic! This movie never gets old. I love it and I'm so happy I own it! I watch it all the time!

Huge fan of anything 80s and Just One Of The Guys holds its own with other classic 80s Highschool/College comedies. My rule of thumb is watch any movie you enjoy but collect the movies you love.

Thank

I was so happy to see this old movie on DVD. It is such a cute movie and I never see it on TV. Movie was packaged well and perfect for viewing.

Its offending in a way that it's hard not to laugh due to the stupidity of it. Teenagers will be teenagers and I suppose most are curious about sex, as in this movie, but I know when I was in high school, my friends and I never went near all of the sexual content thar these high school kids talked about in this movie. Movie consists of most actors who aren't really heard about anymore, except for the bully, of course, and that is only because of his status on Karate Kid. But this is a good movie to turn on when all you want to do is sort of veg out after a long day at work.

Just one of the Guys is, partly, a cookie-cutter 1980s teen comedy, but it does deviate partly from being completely cookie-cutter. The story does not start as the "typical" teen romantic comedy, it actually starts out with a theme of sexism as a journalism student named Terri, played by Joyce Hyser, is not entered in a competition by her teacher that would land her an internship at a newspaper, she decides that it is because she is a girl, and decides to enroll at a different school as "Terry" and hopefully get entered into the competition on her journalistic merit. From there it does get into the cookie-cutter 80s teen comedy with Teri falling for one of her classmates Rick Morehouse, played by Clayton Rohner, having to fend off a bully Greg, William Zabka, and being pursued as Terry by another classmate, Sandy, played by Sherilyn Fenn. Of course, hilarity ensues as she tries to hide being a guy and then in the end has to reveal, in spectacular fashion, that she is not a boy.For those looking to get the movie on disc, there is a Blu-Ray version out there that does have a commentary track with at least some of the cast members included. The DVD version just has the movie itself, no extras. It would be nice if there were a bit of behind-the-scenes material, but given that the movie was not anywhere near as big as some of the other 1980s teen comedies, it is not surprising that the release is pretty bare bones.Overall, the movie is good. Probably better than it got credit for being at the time. It definitely does require some suspension of disbelief, just like movies like Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead require. It is definitely not something that a kid could pull off in real life. But, if you accept it for what it is and do not overanalyze it too much, the movie is enjoyable. The acting is very good, with Billy Jacoby who plays Terri's little brother, Buddy stealing nearly every scene he is in, and Fenn doing sultry about as well as she did in Twin Peaks. While I would not call it a must-see, if you are into 80s comedies, especially the coming of age movies like Fast Times, this is a good one to check out.

I love the light way they revealed a time when it was difficult for a woman to break into the men's work field. My oldest sister was for "Women's Lib", back in the late 60's and through out her working career. First she drove a Cement Mixer and was doing the job faster, cleaner and better than the men. So, the men complained so much they got her pulled off the road and into dispatch (that lasted about 2 weeks). She tried to become a Police Officer (back when you had to meet certain requirements) but she was 5'9" you had to be at least 5'10". She even worked at an Auto Parts Store (she loved mechanics as much as I do). My sister was my hero. Great job to the writers, actors and everyone else that made this movie 5 stars.

I’ve loved this movie back in the day that it was released in theaters. I’ve seen it on cable channels whenever it was aired. Now that there’s so many streaming channels, I found it on Prime Video and recently purchased a digital copy. The brother has great comedic lines.

Un clásico ochentero. Hoy ya no es tan divertida como antes, pero cumple su función nostálgica.

Muy buena comedia estudiantil de los 80 , mil veces mejores que las que hacen ahora , te vas a reir fijo, genial!!

When Terry, a young attractive 18yr old girl thinks that she'd have a better chance at being taken seriously has a writer if she were a boy, she decides that for her last year in high school she'll transfer to a new school disguised as a boy. Her sex starved hilarious younger boy keeps her on her toes, as she juggles love triangles, bullies, along with her old & new identities. This film never fails to put a smile on my face.A great time capsule.The bluray edition was released in 2020 containing cast/crew/directors commentary

Classic from the 80s

Contentísimo con esta película porque andaba mucho tiempo buscándola y me recuerda a mis tiempos mozos.El doblaje en castellano es el original de los años 80.
