Ski School

Two rival groups run lines at a winter ski school, and the rivalry spills from the slopes into every corner of the lodge. One gang comes from money and plays by strict rules, while the other is all energy and prankish charm. As lessons turn into playful competitions, the competitions turn into social battles, and the two factions try to outdo each other with bold stunts, clever tricks, and one upmanship. Dave Marshak and John E. Roland emerge as leaders among a cast that includes Ed Young, Reid Janssens, and Derek Stevens, bringing brash swagger and unexpected loyalty to the forecast of chaos. Behind the snow dust and pratfalls, the movie follows these instructors as they navigate bragging and friendships.

Directed by Damian Lee and released in 1991, Ski School pitches a light hearted comedy about a ski instructors academy. The story originates from a screenplay by David Mitchell, featuring Dean Cameron and Tom Bresnahan, with a display of mischief.

The film plays the ski club farce straight with familiar pratfalls and teen camaraderie. It registers as a breezy comedy that relies on timing and physical gags rather than clever dialogue. With a 5.1 out of 10 from 101 votes, it signals a niche appeal rather than broad acclaim.

While not a landmark of its era, Ski School captures a slice of early 90s spoof humor and the ski movie vibe. Its simple setup and cast remind you of the era's disposable comedy aimed at teen and young adult audiences. For fans of the era, it's a harmless nostalgia.
