The late Corey Haim and his on & off screen friend Corey
Feldman star in this 1988 comedy which gets a UK DVD release courtesy of Second
Sight.
Les (Haim) sees his driving licence as a ticket to freedom
so he is devastated when he fails the test. Such is his shame that he can’t
admit the failure and soon decides to go a night out driving to impress his
friends and the gorgeous Mercedes (Heather Graham).
What could possibly go wrong?
I had fond memories of this one as I was a fan of the two
Coreys and despite a shaky start it manages to retain much of its charm.
Haim is great as the underachieving Les and Feldman provides
good support along with Richard Masur and Carol Kane as Les’ parents.
For good nostalgic fun and a few laugh out loud moments
check it out.
License To Drive is available on DVD in the UK from 30th
July 2012.

It's been so long I don't even remember the plot.
