After seven years in boarding school, Morgan Stewart is finally coming home. He decides to reform his social climbing, politically inclined parents and things get a little out of control!
"To me "Morgan Stewart..." is one of the most underrated classic 80's movies!! It's got everything you'd expect from a great 80's movie but sadly never got the recognition it deserved. It's one of those movies that I can't help quoting and can't seem to stop watching whenever it comes on TV."
Just a fun movie!

"Ok, yeah... It's no Pretty in Pink, but this is a great movie. Jon Cryer's charm and (ahem...) singing ability make this movie a riot! It's just a fun comedy that WILL make you laugh. Promise."
Maybe I am one of the few but I liked it.

"Okay, I know some people don't like this movie. I think that it is a cute 80's flick. I would always watch it when it was on TV and one day I brought a copy of it. Is it worth the [price]? Maybe it should be cheeper. The Actor who played Morgan did a good job
and so did the girl who played his girlfriend."
I AGREE with ross from Md. this movie was super!

"Gosh, I was pretty young when my mother taped Morgan Stewart's Coming Home off of t.v. for me. I watched it pretty frequently, and as I grew up it become sort of a comfort movie and it moved with me, well it wore out. So yay to the DVD Lost Collection.
Morgan Stewart is played by Jon Cryer, he's an awkward teenager who just wants to be part of his family. He's super into horror flicks. Well after a pretty crazy prank at the boarding school the headmaster informs Morgan that his parents called and they want him to come home. Morgan hasn't lived at home since he was about 8 or so. He doesn't really know much about his parents anymore and they certainly don't know or understand Morgan. His dad is a Republican Senator and his mother is an overly structured rigid rule cracking mom.
Morgan meets a fellow horror movie fan and falls in love, and the more Morgan is himself the less his mother understands him and tries to restrict his life. When the restrictions become unbearable Morgan runs away and discovers some political secrets and ...I have to leave you there least I give away the ending."
