I never actually review any old movie but I think this movie is worth reviewing, American R-rated teen movie have lost what I can say, the real comedy with a good plot, they always think, with cursing so much, do a lot of sexual preference stuff will be funny. Its not actually. Its do funny sometime but cant we just avoid the cursing sketches. Secret Admirer just need a piece of paper as the center of attraction and with that only the story is moving really well. I just need 3 other line to complete my other bad English review but lets give this movie a try, even though this is not a best movie ever but its still good, ever. Sometime, one good movie from 80s is better than 10 good movie from 21st century.

On the last day before summer vacation, Michael Ryan (C. Thomas Howell) finds an anonymous love letter in his locker. Michael has a crush on Deborah "Debbie" Anne Fimple (Kelly Preston), who is the most beautiful girl of the high-school, and his friend Roger (Casey Siemaszko) convinces him that Debbie has written the letter. Michael writes a love letter to Debbie and asks his best friend Toni (Lori Loughlin), who actually wrote the letter for him, to deliver the letter to Debbie that is also her friend. However Toni reads the letter and rewrites it to Debbie, who immediately falls in love with the unknown author. Meanwhile, Michael's mother Connie Ryan (Dee Wallace) finds Michael's letter and believes it belongs to her husband George Ryan (Cliff De Young) and Debbie's father Lou Fimple (Fred Ward) finds Debbie's letter and believes it belongs to his wife Elizabeth Fimple (Leigh Taylor-Young). Michael dates Debbie while their parents are astonished with the betrayals of their mates. Soon Michael finds that Debbie is a shallow teenager and he misses Toni. Further, he realizes that she has written the letters and he feels that he loves her. But Toni is aboard of a ship ready to travel to study abroad for one year. Will they meet each other? "Secret Admirer" is a charming romantic comedy from the wonderful 80's. The plot is naive and funny and makes laugh a lot with the confusion generated by the love letters. The beauty of Kelly Preston is astonishing; C. Thomas Howell is excellent; but the sweet Lori Loughlin steals the show and is the greatest attraction of this film performing a lovely character. My vote is eight. Title (Brazil): "Admiradora Secreta" ("Secret Admirer")

This is one of my favourite '80s teen comedy movies that never really got the notoriety that it deserved. Sure, there were a lot of great '80s movies like "16 Candles", "Just One of the Guys", and "Zapped", but "Secret Admirer" really holds it's own. It's about a guy that receives a love letter, thinking that it's from the most popular girl in school. This sets off a wave of misunderstandings throughout the movie. What really makes this movie is that it stars a lot of well-liked actors from that era: C. Thomas Howell ("The Hitcher"/"Soul Man", Lori Loughlin ("Back to the Beach"/"Full House", and last but not least Corey Haim ("First Born"/"Just One of the Girls"). It's a cute story that's not mean't to be taken seriously, it's just a light comedy that has an '80s charm all of it's own. If you like '80s teen comedies that are first rate, this is a definite addition to your movie library that you won't want to miss. I hope it comes out on DVD in the future!

"Secret Admirer" is one of those typical teen films that came a dime a dozen during the 1980s. It is a film that is powered by sexual tension, raunchy comedy, and vulgar situations. The film deals with a high school boy (C. Thomas Howell) and his obsession with a classmate (Kelly Preston). After he receives an anonymous letter from an admirer, he thinks it might be Preston. However, it is friend Lori Loughlin who is the admirer. Howell starts to write letters to Preston now, but they are so sorry that Loughlin writes letters to Preston (making them appear that Howell wrote them). Preston falls in love, Howell thinks he's a genius, and Loughlin is left in the cold. Then the letters become misplaced and Howell's parents (Dee Wallace and Cliff De Young) and Preston's parents (Fred Ward and Leigh Taylor-Young) get hold of them and get the wrong idea. Now De Young and Taylor-Young are thinking of having an affair with each other while Wallace and Ward find out and look to take manners into their own hands. As you can tell everything becomes a pure mess, but it all ends well. The film is funny and somewhat clever, but it gets into nasty elements that are not really needed. Director David Greenwalt tries to juggle the disjointed screenplay, but is only minimally successful. A likeable cast and some good moments make the film watchable, but it had the potential to be so much more. 2.5 out of 5 stars.
