What can I say - anything John Hughes touches turns to gold and this is no exception. One of my all time favorite 80s movies and my daughter loves it. It’s timeless. She even told me “Mom, the 80s had the best movies. They are so much better than today’s pre-teen movies. “
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: Pre-owned
I loved the 80's so I am partial. My daughters feel the movie is a little dated but agree the points made are true to life. It's a common story but taking place during the wild times of the 80's. Poor girl meets rich boy. They fall in love but to the strong objections of their relative social groups. Taking place during senior year of high school there is a lot going on that reflects very comical as well as serious situations. Situations we all can relate to. Of course love wins out in the end. I love this movie, the moral to the story will always be valid; staying true to oneself.
Writer John Hughes has the 80's pegged. But this story could have been set in the 50's or 60's and still worked well. That is why I think this movie is so relevant. Devotion, friendship, and self worth are quizzed. The young actors were better than expected. I have watched this over a dozen times and I don't care if some people refer to this as a "chick flick". A young girl falls in love with a boy from the other side of the tracks. Problems occur when his peers think the object of his desires is socially beneath him. Molly Ringwald was very good. Andrew McCarthy and Jon Cryer seemed to feel their part more than the rest of the cast. But James Spader was such a realistic jerk, you want to get up and punch his face in. Harry Dean Stanton and Annie Potts play the adult roles of substance. Have you ever seen Stanton so sympathetic? A very upbeat soundtrack keeps the movie flowing and helps you feel the atmosphere. Don't write this off as just another teen movie. Highly recommended.Read full review
