Editorial Review:
A wacky free-for-all comedy about the riotous rivalry between snobby skiers and knuckle-dragging snowboarders! Starring Corey Haim (Dream a Little Dream), Jim Varney (Ernest movies), Brigitte Nielsen (Beverly Hills Cop II) and SCTV’s Joe Flaherty.
Snowboard Academy Reviews:
The thrills of winter fun 
2009-11-18 - Snowboard Academy was a fun, silly movie staring Jim Varney. As with all Jim Varney movies it was alot of fun to watch!
AWFUL. SIMPLY AWFUL. 
2008-08-02 - I was sure that Dr.Otto was the worst Varney movie ever until I ran into this one. But then I only saw the first ten minutes. It looks like it was made by people wearing blindfolds and drinking warm Red Bull, and paying their seven year old brothers a hundred a week to make up sick teen sex jokes.
This is a good movie to make your kids watch, so they have some idea of what hell might be like.
Best picture at my oscars
2005-06-25 - Before seeing this movie, I thought "Chairman of the Board" starring Carrot Top was the finest motion picture this country had ever produced. That was before I found "Snowboard Academy" in a dumpster and decided to give it a view. First of all, who in the world would throw away a movie with Corey Haim, Jim Varney and Brigetite Nelson. This is the equivalent of putting Hasselhoff, Clay Aiken and Rockwell on the same album. Productivity in our world would stop because no one could stop listening to it.
This movie has everything you would ever want in a film. Hot snow boarding action, slapstick comedy, a dog, and a story that Mark Twain wishes he could write. I was on the edge of my seat one minute, hiding my eyes the next. This movie took me everywhere like my dad did when I was 19. You see kids, I had a lot of trouble learning to drive. Everytime I tried to turn I just kept going in a 360 until I finally passed out. I couldn't figure out when to stop turning the wheel. I eventually got that figured out with a special helmet, but back to the movie. Jim Varney is scrumtrulescent in this film. Let's just say Jim Carrey is the poor man's Jim Varney. Carrey can screw around with his face, but Varney does it with Pinache. And Corey Haim, are you kidding me. How people bought into Tom Cruise in this country and not Corey Haim is why many people want to move to Chile.
This movie is the top of the top of the shelf.
terrible
2004-03-07 - What a peice of crap. This movie is terrible. The only decent actor in it is the lady who works the proshop, who doesnt really even do anything in the movie. Terrible plot, some stuff doesnt even make sense, like the french guy and the stoner guy, both would have been better just thrown out of the movie. But I will admit that there were som really funny random jokes in there, but there were only 2 or 3 of those, and the rest was terrible. Also, whoever said the snowboard sequences were really cool, has clearly never seen a real snowboard video. It might have been alright boarding when it was originally filmed apporvimately 10 years ago, but compared to todays snowboarding its a joke. Oh yeah and who ever said jim varney is good is a numbskull. Hes the most unfunniest person Ive ever seen. In fact, I think Ronald Mcdonald commercials are funnier than these. I cant get over what a bad movie it was.
PS
The best part was when they show the snowboard go down the hill riding regular, then show him going off the jump switch. What a joke.
snowboard academy
2003-08-23 - This would have to be one of the worst movies corey haim has played in. The boarding was all fake and were just stupid scenes. The comedy in this movie was pretty stupid and un comical to tell you the truth.
