A rare classic that shines of truth.

Rating: 10/10 (11 July 2000)

John Hughes classic directing style, which can be spotted after watching only 10 minutes of any of his films, is magnified 10 fold is this awesome classic.
This excellent telling of the social scene at an 80's high school is surprisingly accurate and honest. The all-star cast brings all aspects of the high school drama to life with excellent accuracy, especially when compared to other high school-based films.
This movie is home to scores of classic moments and epic lines that have been repeated countless times by my generation.
There are less than a handful of films that are truly untouchable in all aspects, but this is definitely one of them. Writing, directing, acting, soundtrack, everything is presented in perfect form. This film is an eternal classic.
