Ah, the age-old debate. Hard to believe this movie is 15 years old this year. Yikes. When did we get old enough to know movies this old?
Anyway, Billy Madison is one of those movies you don't watch for content. The premise is completely unrealistic, the characters walk that fine line between adorable and annoying, and it kinda looks like a way for ex-SNL cast members to get a paycheck. And yet, somehow, I still had to laugh. It's just funny, alright... nothing beats kids wise beyond their years with an (extremely) immature adult in their midst.
Really, it's just plain fun. Don't think too hard about it. Don't worry that sitting in on a class for 2 weeks isn't the equivalent of "passing" that grade. Billy Madison doesn't do much thinking, so neither should you.
