A Very Funny Under Rated Comedy, 21 September 2001
10/10
Author: Ryan (rjtg912@aol.com)

When I first saw High School High in Florida while visting my grandmother in 98 I could'nt stop laughing. It is a very funny under rated comedy that should be seen if your in the mood for good comedy.This is one of Jon Lovitz funniest performances I have seen. So if your a fan of Jon Lovitz it is worth all the time that this movie is.
