Shelley Long discovers that when the going gets tough, the tough go camping in Troop Beverly Hills, a comedy about lifestyles of the rich and outrageous. Flamboyantly wealthy Phyllis Nefler (Long) has everything money can buy–a drop-dead Beverly Hills mansion, a classic Rolls, furs, jewelry and designer gowns. The one thing she doesn’t have is her husband Freddy (Craig T. Nelson), who’s leaving her for good. Maybe. Determined to prove she’s still the creative, energetic woman Freddy once loved, Phyllis throws luxury to the wind and becomes leader of her daughter’s Wilderness Girls troop. But how much can this chic cookie take before she crumbles? Is saving her marriage really worth trading Gucci bags for sleeping bags-–not to mention actually touching bugs? Featuring cameos by Robin Leach, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Pia Zadora, Frankie Avalon, Annette Funicello, Dr. Joyce Brothers, and Cheech Marin, Shelley Long blazes new comic trails in this hilarious trial-by-campfire that leaves the wilderness wilder than ever.

I am shocked and amazed at the great acclaim this film is getting on this page. This is a very bad movie. That’s all Shelley Long has made!(except Outrageous Fortune and The Brady movies). This is a waste of time and money. Awful waste.

When this movie came out, myself and the other girls in my troop knew that we had to see it.
Although the acting was lax and the fashions were way out of our league, we liked the developing sense of sisterhood and the warmth and compassion each girl and leader showed towards each other.
Phyllis Neffler is the perfect leader for the Beverly Hills wilderness girl troop because she can relate to them. Even though this troop had everything against them, they kept on being themselves and made the local wilderness girls of the year. They were the first troop to cross the jamboree finish line with their leader.
The assistant troop leader Annie Herman is initally a spy who is supposed to doccument all of the allegedly horrible things the troop is doing. Annie gradually comes to realize that the District Leader Velda Plendor is the problem.
Her transformation is one of the hidden joys of the film. By the end of the film, Annie is telling the former boss to take a hike.
