Part of the now politically even more incorrect wave of early 80s movies of an adult getting raunchy with a minor, Private Lessons joins in with the somewhat dubious club of Class, My Tutor, In the Mood, They’re Playing with Fire and Blame It on Rio.

It’s hard to view Private Lessons as anything but an exploitation on the subject and a weak excuse to display some T&A in order to lure in some younger audience. The movie does make an effort to cover all this up by cooking up a blackmailing plot – which is not actually too bad – but it’s too little too late to make up for its numerous shortcomings.
