A goofy teen comedy about a water-skiing camp. This one was even more stupid and clichéd than I expected. But it did have one thing going for it: Corey Feldman at the height of self-absorbed d-bag greatness. The movie borders on vanity project in the way it presents Corey's character as the most awesome human being of all time. If nothing else, try to find his "dance" scene on YouTube--I wish I had just watched that instead of the entire film. There is a plot about a rival camp taking all the business away from the small, family run camp, but no one will care. The filmmakers were so short on ideas they ran not one but TWO camp vs. camp competitions. There was also a subplot about a clumsy nerd and cruel jocks, and some stuff about how the evil camp was sabotaging the good-hearted camp owners. I didn't laugh once, but I like watching Corey's awesomely terrible attempts at projecting "cool." On top of it, there's some enjoyable dated 90's music and fashion. Again, I don't recommend sitting through the whole thing, but I do want to seek out other bad Corey movies, so I guess it has one entertaining facet.
