Billy Madison is a non-working, non-educated slacker who mooches entirely off his father. He spends most of his day drinking beer, "reading" girly magazines, and hanging out by the pool. When his father realizes that Billy is unfit to run the family business, Billy decides that he must go back to school to prove to his father that he is responsible, and smart enough to take over the family business. He figures it will be no problem going back to high school and learning it over again, until he learns that his father bought Billy's passing grades all the way back in elementary school. Thus, Billy must return to elementary school and pass each grade one step at a time, or else he loses his place as heir to the company. In addition, Billy tries to win the hand of Veronica, a sexy grade three school teacher who thinks her students are more mature than Billy.
The movie is really comical and entertaining. M'Views gives it 8.3/10.
