Dentention Has A New Definition !!

Rating: 9/10 (13 March 2015)

Quite possibly, this may be the best teen-focused movie in history. The plot is extremely original and the tempo and storyline are just fantastic. Disregarding useless Hollywood monikers (such as "the brat pack"), each cast member creates a memorable character perception while, at the same time, contributing to a wonderful ensemble effort. Judd Nelson, Emilio Estevez, Anthony Michael Hall, Allie Sheedy, and Mollie Ringwald each turn in what may be the best performances of their respective career. The story centers on a Saturday morning detention session in a Chicago high school involving 5 radically different students each suffering from a unique form of peer pressure. Paul Gleeson turns in a very convincing performance as the detention dean. This film has depth, emotion, humor and a soundtrack that fits to perfection. A must see !!!
