Goofs:
Revealing mistakes: In the party scene where Preach talks to Brenda, it is clearly visible that the door opens from the outside. But when Cochise throws Damon into that same door and breaks it, the door falls through. If the door opens from the outside, then there would be no way the door could fall. more

Cooley High is a film with heart, humor and tears. This is one of the films that inspired to become a filmaker. The emotions between the two main charcters Preach and GoCheese remins me of all my best friends. Glynn Turman and Laurence Hilton Jacobs are amazing in their roles and this film is highly reccomnded. The soundtrack is one of the best in a cinema history. I love this movie.
