I don't know if there is something wrong with me or my taste of movies? When I read all those positive reviews or when I see the high ratings Cooley High got I wonder if I watched the same movie as all those people. Because I really didn't like this movie, and I'm not a difficult guy, on the contrary I'm easily entertained. But entertainment is certainly not the word that pops into my mind when I think about Cooley High, quite the opposite. First of all the acting, let's just say it honestly, it's bad. Then you have the storyline or the lack of it as most of the movie is just following some black immature guys doing the dumbest and most uninteresting things ever, in other words really boring to watch. I read somebody had to cry at the end because it was so emotional. I must have missed that part, probably because I dozed off a couple of times, not because I was tired but because of the extreme boredom. The conversations those youngsters have are for people with a very low IQ. The "guys" hitting on girls is so pathetic to watch you wonder who's the dumbest of them all, the girls or the boys?
