Two disfunctional families. We can all relate, can't we?

Rating: 10/10 (24 October 2000)

American Beauty goes on an even line with The Breakfast Club. A 10. The Breakfast Club covered the kids' points of views. American Beauty covers the family point of view. No other movie has even come close to the TBC other than this movie. I think all that they have left now is just the parents' point of views.
American Beauty covered about every genre. Comedy. Drama. Romance. Thriller. Okay. It didn't cover horror, sci-fi, and Action/Adventure.

The Breakfast Club covered the same. Comedy. Drama. Romance. Thriller.

The acting in both movies are superbly done. My favorite quote from both are the following.
AB - "Don't interrupt me honey."
TBC - "What do you care what I think anyway? I don't even count right? I could disappear forever and it wouldn't make any difference. I may as well not even exist at this school, remember?..."
