Timeless Film With Many Classic Moments

Rating: 8/10 (22 January 2010)

"The Breakfast Club" is an extremely fun movie that makes me smile to just think about it. I remember the first time I saw it, I did not know what to think going into a film entitled "The Breakfast Club", but I was very satisfied once it got rolling along.
It is cool to see all of the different types of high school groups represented and to see them interact in a Saturday detention. Throughout the film they all slowly realized that despite the very noticeable differences on the outside, the all have a lot in common on the inside.
I don't feel that this movie is outdated. High school life really breaks kids up into different groups like this, but when you get down to it and the groups disappear the different seeming individuals can coexist nicely.
This movie is filled with many classic scenes, but, of course, the best scene is the final one with the bully character walking through the football field while "Don't You Forget About Me" plays loudly. Everyone who has seen this movie will always associate that song with it.
