Customer Reviews of The Seniors
Graduation nerves The phrase "scientifically proven" is so over-used these days that I usually brush it off as nonsense whenever someone tells me that such-and-such has been demonstrated "scientifically." Most people have little idea what the concept means, much less how it might apply to any sort of phenomena whatsoever.
The present film is a bit of a satire on this point. Four college seniors (one of them played by Dennis Quaid, in one of his earliest movies) set out to get out of having to graduate & join the American workforce. But how can they avoid this fate if they can't afford graduate school?
They come up with an absurd but comical solution. They apply for a science grant, attach the name of a Nobel prize winning hermit & set out to "study college-aged sexually liberated women." Obviously, no science is involved whatsoever, but the idea takes on a life of its own.
It doesn't take long before they extend their idea and begin to have the study include middle-aged men. They, of course, must pay a fee to participate, which they gladly do. The students pay off the cops to leave them alone and start raking in the $$$.
The net result is scientifically sanctioned prostitution.
In the meantime, their "study" is hailed as an enormously important scientific breakthrough - all because it has attached to it the name of a famous scientist. The fun seems to go on without any end in sight.
If you're looking for a sexy comedy, this one just might do if you can get past just how 70ish it is. It has a surplus of topless women and makes one nostalgic for their college days. It does, however, end up being an unexpectedly dark comedy.
On the downside, the master tape appears to have been damaged, so the transfer to DVD is rough. There is some distortion in the movie that there's nothing you can do about. If you're OK with that, this film might be worth a try.
higher education depends upon your point of view!
Dennis Quaid plays one of four college seniors nearing graduation. However, none seem prepared to tackle the responsibilities of the "real world". Desperate to do something, they open a sex clinic on campus. To their surprise the clinic becomes an overnight success.
