A GREAT BLACK OLD-SCHOOL CLASSIC MOVIE! 
2008-09-14
On a rainy day, I love to watch Cooley High and listen to the music of my generation. Times were hard, but they were simple. I get excited while trying to remember, what was I doing when that song came was out. Now, I can share Cooley High with my grand children and next generations! This is one of my best purchases!
A Must Own 2008-06-08
This movie contains one of the most moving endings of all time. It is a must-own for anyone who grew up in the 60s or 70s because it captures what life was like in the inner cities back then. A classic!

It IS hard to say goodbye to yesterday... 2008-05-06
This movie came out my freshman year in college, was made my senior year of high school...so I've always felt a strong attachment to it. Even though I went to high school in Omaha, there are many universal events in the movie, too many to describe here, but Cooley High is one of my all-time favorites, along with Car-Wash, The Sting, Godfather I & II, Five Fingers of Death...I lost two close friends as I graduated from hs and could really relate to Cochise. I think of them everyday, even if only for a moment. This reminds me of a time and place I can't go back to, but it's nice to reflect from time to time...
One of the best blackexploation films ever made 2008-03-26
Cooley High is a film with heart, humor and tears. This is one of the films that inspired to become a filmaker. The emotions between the two main charcters Preach and GoCheese remins me of all my best friends. Glynn Turman and Laurence Hilton Jacobs are amazing in their roles and this film is highly reccomnded. The soundtrack is one of the best in a cinema history.

African American cinema at it's finest 2007-07-13
This film is by far one of the best African Americaan films of all time. This film is funny, and it also has it's sad moments. Lawrence Hilton Jacobs is so fine, and I love Glynn Turman's character. I recommend this film to all film lovers.
Chicago's Finest 2007-06-20
This is truly one of the great ones. Cooley High is about teens (classmates)coming of age on the north side of Chicago, and how easily things can go wrong in a young person's life. Cooley High School is still standing today, but it was renamed "Lincoln Park High School" (For you Chicago people). The characters in the movie are very colorful and the story is true to life for growing up in Chicago during the 60's. The music is without a doubt one of the best soundtracks of the 60's era. The television series "What's Happening" was based on this movie.
