Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
Released in 1995 under the title Learning Curves, this derivative comedy is so uninspired that you'll have to stifle a dozen yawns while watching it, and it goes through all the familiar motions with a plot about a high school senior (Jason London) who needs some math tutoring to improve his odds of getting into Harvard. It just so happens that the beautiful babe who tutors him (Tia Carrere of Wayne's World fame and little else) is also the neglected, lovelorn wife of his math teacher (Christopher McDonald), and she's willing to give him more than a few math lessons. (Can you say "predictable"? Knew you could!) Tepidly directed with all the subtlety of an anvil to the skull, the movie gets a much-needed boost from its appealing cast (indeed, Carrere shows some actual talent here, leaving the peekaboo nudity to an obvious body double), and North Carolina locations add some relaxing visual charm. And because London's character is an aspiring cartoonist, typically wacky animations by Bill Plympton are used as semiclever linking devices. Still, you'd have to be very forgiving--or an obsessive Tia Carrere fan--to consider watching this lightweight snoozer more than once. --Jeff Shannon

To paraphrase Thora Birch: "I kind of like this movie. It's the exact opposite of everything I hate in a film".
This obscure film was too low key and intelligent to get a theatrical release, any chance for success would have needed a costly promotional campaign. And a coming of age story where nothing spectacular happens - where instead the focus is on character development, has a limited target audience. Whoever heard of a mature teen movie?
But if you have an opportunity ... Read More

After seeing so many unfunny movies from the "Comedy Section" of my local video store I was delighted to find this movie.This movie is a cut above the usual Tutor/Student Comedy and Ms. Carrere is funny, sweet and oh so gorgeous in it. Her performance alone lifts this film way above the genre of the horny teenager who meets a sexy older woman who tutors him. I have never seen Ms. Carrere give a bad performance and I hope her star continues to rise in Hollywood.

First of all, there is one nude scene with Tia Carrere showing her tops (but I think it is a body double) as the scene didn't show Ms. Carrere's face. Other than that there is not much to see from this teen oriented sexy comedy. The plot about a high school student who falls for her sexy math tutor who happens to be the wife of his math professor. Besides Tia Carrere, there is nothing else this movie can offer.

O.K. Firstly, whoever wrote the editorial shown above doesn't know how to critique movies. I watch alot of movies, and this movie was far better than the most of what i watch. The plot was excellent. It's a situation that you don't want to fall into, but than you kind of imagine about it or everyone once in awhile get there. High school senior falls in love with beautiful wife of his math teacher. It's a probably setting. I mean don't you ever get into situation where you find someone you really ... Read More
