Overview
Clifford Peach, an easygoing teenager, is finding less than easy to fit in at his new high school, where a tough-talking bully terrorizes his classmates and extorts their lunch money. Refusing to pay up, Clifford enlist the aid of an overgrown misfit whose mere presence intimidates students and teachers alike. But their “business relationship” soon turns personal as Clifford and the troubled loner forge a winning alliance against their intimidators - and a very special friendship with each other.

Viewing Notes
On my to-watch list for a long, long time. It dropped off instawatch then returned and was expiring tonight so I had to view it. Glad I did as I did not realize this was shot in and around Chicago. Definitely bumps the rating for what feels like mostly an After-School Special. Still a solid film. Really like the young Adam Baldwin.
