Brightlyme i know i wasted 90 mins of my life.

TaryBiggBall It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.

Abegail Noëlle While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

Jemima It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.

PeterPizzazz This is a great movie. I first saw it in my younger years on cable and loved the gags. Now, much older but not too much more mature, I can still appreciate the gags - I have to say the editing in this movie is horrible! Very disjointed and the sequencing makes no sense. Each scene is a gem in it's own right, but whom ever threaded this together left something to be desired. I guess since there are at least 5 story lines going on, you will find something you like, but don't get too involved - your head will spin by the time they get back to it. Great soundtrack, awesome cars - fun to see many stars first time out - Hubba Hubba to Michelle P. Look for the skinny cop in Spaceballs. Now that it's on cable - it's a fun-must see. I'm glad I never paid for it though!

adietz1-1 If you like 30 year olds trying to portray teenagers - you'll love this! It tries to be "American Graffiti" & fails on all attempts. Robert Wuhl's character tries to be so zany & over-the-top, yet one gets the feeling that at any point he could be punched out by any other character. The bumbling cops are totally overacted throughout this piece of trash, just like the old fogies who are so insulted by the wild kids (who by the way are about 10 years younger than the old folks). I would enjoy this film more if the Knights met a real street gang & addressed the rival gang's guns & knives with some of the smart quips & physical comedy. Danza has very little to do with the group & his romantic life numbs you from start to ZZZZZzzzzzzzzz. The 1 bright spot in this disaster, I don't know. You let me know! Oh - you'll probably really enjoy this brand of humor if you're over 9 & under 14. Hard to even look at the title of this wreck without thinking of some 4th grader mocking his teacher.

Shapster11 American Graffitti became a classic because of it delved into issues of high school graduation, the Vietnam War, and moving on from your roots and comfort in a small California town in the early 1960's. The Hollywood Knights (HK), in many ways, examines similar issues at a similar time except it departs any semblance of maturity and seriousness.HK touches all the silliness a film can muster yet the cast here pulls it off in a fun way. The situation is this...we're in Beverly Hills, CA. in the mid sixties and Tubby's Drive-In, the local hang out for teens, is closing its doors for good when it closes that night. The members of the "gang" Hollywood Knights are determined to cram into one night all the pranks and mayhem they can. Their ringleader is Newbomb Turk, played wonderfully by Robert Wuhl long before he created the character of ARLI$$ for HBO.You'll get to see some very notable actors and actresses here. Following in the fine tradition of real Hollywood a movie such as this tends to bring to the public some terrific future talent. Among the people you'll recognize are Michelle Pheiffer, Tony Danza, and Fran Drescher. Danza had already been discovered as a boxer turned cab driver in the great TV series "TAXI". Pheiffer is so young and beautiful here that it is easy to see the star potential movie makers saw in her. Drescher, shortly before developing her signature role as "The Nanny" for TV, plays her role with the same nasal Brooklyn charm that made her endearing to audiences.One final note about HK...some of the scenes are slapstick funny. As in Animal House this movie will have you remembering pranks you tried and moronic silly things you laughed at yet it will take you back, I'm betting, in a good way.

TOMASBBloodhound The Hollywood Knights is perhaps as low as low-brow humor can go and still be funny. There is nothing pretentious or any deeply layered meanings to be found anywhere in this 90 minute romp about a car club whose favorite hangout is set to close after one last night of mayhem.Car enthusiasts will love the various hot-rods that tear up the streets throughout the film. There is a fair amount of nudity and sexual humor mixed in. The film gets the rest of its laughs from low-brow pranks perpetrated by the gang of record.We see the Knights stuff baked potatoes in the tailpipes of cop cars, kidnap and humiliate and honor student, disrupt a country club dance, and drag race up and down the streets of L.A.. There are two particularly inept cops who seem to be on a personal crusade to "kick the crap out of" the Knights; Newbomb Turk (Wuhl) in particular. Their superior officer warns them to just take it easy and let them have their fun since this will presumably be the last night the gang will be around. Needless to say, the cops disregard those instructions and we see one confrontation after another between the two camps. There is also plenty of animosity directed toward a waspy neighborhood group that has helped push the Knights' hangout out of business. We also see the trials and tribulations of four new pledges who have to run naked through Watts to get to a radio station to make a personal dedication to the favorite hangout. Overall, there's plenty of funny stuff going on.There are a couple of smaller and more serious subplots. One involves a Knight who spends the evening saying his goodbyes to everyone before leaving for Vietnam the next day. This material is sincere, but it does kind of kill the mood in the midst of all the pranks. Another subplot involves Tony Danza and Michelle Pfeiffer having relationship troubles due to the fact that she wants to be an actress and he's against that for reasons that are never really made all that clear. This plot is also somewhat of a distraction, but it gives us a chance to look at Pfeiffer, and she is absolutely amazing in this film!!! Wow! There is no doubting Robert Wuhl's charisma as Newbomb Turk. I'm surprised it took him as long as it did to make a bigger name for himself in Hollywood, but he's pretty much made it now. Pfeiffer and Danza of course went on to much better things, as did Fran Drescher.Still funny after all these years, The Hollywood Knights is certainly worth a look. But keep in mind that this film is not exactly an episode of Frazier. For those of you looking for "intelligent comedy", you won't find it here. This film gets its laughs from lighting bags of dog crap on fire and watching the horrified reactions of wasps after they've just been mooned.It makes me laugh, anyway! 8 of 10 stars.The Hound.
