Surprise: We kinda liked Porky’s. Also surprise: It’s wasn’t because of boobs (hardly any, actually) or jokes (so many bad ones). The 1981 Canadian-American teen sex comedy actually had some depth to it, dealing with child abuse, misogyny, racism, and possibly the fallout of war. Seriously!

    Loved this one. I was hoping you would review it soon. I really enjoyed your review, being older than all of you I saw this in my Teens and again in my Twenties and enjoyed the franchise. I just see this one as a snapshot of one the writers perception of the 50’s. My Father was a Teenager during this time and this was pretty much as he described. Minus the destruction of property. A book you might like to read and recommend to all is the Life and Times of the Thunderbolt Kid by Bill Bryson, Nudity, underage drinking and explosions at School. I promise you, you will understand that this crap happened more than you could ever imagine.
