My Bodyguard

USA 1980, 92 minutes
Dir. Tony Bill
Rating: [PG]
Genres: Classics, Comedy / Youth

Feat. Chris Makepeace, Adam Baldwin, Matt Dillon, Ruth Gordon, John Houseman

Aroview: A newcomer to a Chicago high school hires the biggest fellow student to be his 'bodyguard', especially to protect him from a lunch-money racket. Actually quite sweetly toned and unusual in focusing on bullying and teenage insecurity, although the final sentiments are straight from the usual Hollywood rulebook.

I find this review offensive! I don’t agree with this review. I agree with this review.
2 stars (Good Try) Adam Baldwin is good throughout even though the screenplay weakens out. The subplot with Ruth Gordon doesn't seem to go anywhere or maybe is forgotten about. Equally John Houseman pops in but thats about it for him. ~Tubbs
