On Whistler Mountain, Dave Marshak (Dean Cameron) leads a group of misfits including his best friends Fitz Fitzgerald and the sleepy Ed Young in the Section 8 ski school. They face the All Star Ski School led by Reid Janssens in the Annual Spring Pageant. Dave has an eye for his girlfriend Lori. John Roland is the new kid on the slopes. It's a world of pranks and sexual escapades.It wants to be Animal House on skis. Dean Cameron has a certain charm. It doesn't rise up to that level. It's not even close. There are boobs. There are jokes. It has a sense of innocent fun. It's a very lightweight sex comedy.

I never saw Ski school because I was looking for Citizen Cane on the slopes. I saw it because Dean Cameron was in it and that was enough reason for me. I wasn't disappointed at all. It's about this ski team (Section 8) of misfits who basically ski very well but also love to play practical jokes on the uptight ski team. They get threatened with being thrown off the slopes and must retaliate. The best thing about this movie (other than the multi-talented team of Dean Cameron and Stuart Fratkin) is that most of the script was written by them. The movie plays like a bunch of guys goofing around (Helium theater is my favorite). in short, this film kicks a**.

One of the funniest movies I have ever seen, bar none. You would have to be dead not to have fun watching this movie. You don't even have to be a skier to fall off your couch laughing at this great sports film. Dave is the best instructor at ski school and his cohorts will do any thing to keep it that way. After they find out about some shady dealings at the mountain, they vow to ski their best to the end. This is a must see movie in the same vein as Road Trip or National Lampoons Vacation or the cult classic Caddy Shack 1. I will say though that it is not for the under 17 crowd. Again I recommend this movie and my only regret is this movie probably will never be on DVD where it would probably delight another generation

I was just browsing my friend's movie collection and came across "Ski School". I almost put it down without even saying anything because I thought it was gonna be a dumb movie about skiing competitions, but I asked him about it and he said "It's funny, and it's got naked women in it." As SOON as I heard that, I shoved it in. To my surprise, it was a pretty good movie. As many have said, it's a very quotable movie: "In order to be the best, you must lose your mind!" -- "Welcome to my kingdom, I will bed you all before the night is through!" -- "You, get beer! You, get...beer! You, get...laid!" -- and many, many others. With a combination of non-stop jokes, partying, naked women, and skiing, this is definitely the perfect comedy for guys.And also to my pleasant surprise, it has an awesome soundtrack -- they play 2 songs from one of my favorite bands, Lock Up, which is guitarist Tom Morello from Rage Against The Machine's old band -- "Punch Drunk" and "Half Man, Half Beast". If you haven't seen this movie, you MUST! It deserves the publicity. 10/10 for entertainment value.
