A great film of the 80's

Rating: 10/10 (12 August 1999)

I loved this film from the first time that I saw it. I like the whole idea of the kids sitting around for a whole day and talking about anything and everything that comes to their mind and how their situation in life is reflected in how they come to their very distinct and separate ideas and opinions. I felt I identified with Judd Nelson's character of Bender, being that I was the pain in the butt that he was, at that time. I'd like to think that if there was a second part to update us on what happened to the members of "The Breakfast Club," that the character of Bender would have grown up to a better vision of life than he displayed in the movie. A fantastic movie of not coming of age, but becoming aware.
