My favorite '80s teen movie...

Rating: Null/10 (10 February 2004)

How can five kids who don't have anything in common at the start of a day have almost everything in common by the end of it? The Breakfast Club is so moving and such a true example of the incredible writing style John Hughes always delivers. Anthony Michael Hall and Molly Ringwald return from Sixteen Candles together in this well thought out script about what would happen to five kids who are all 180 degrees different from one another, by the end of a day of detention with each other. Ally Sheedy, Emilio Estevez, and Judd Nelson join the other two actors in this heart-felt classic, aimed at teens but great to watch even as you get older. Out of all the Hughes films that came out in the '80s, even throughout the early '90s, this is probably my favorite. Although it's hard to turn that slot down to Ferris Beuller's Day Off and Sixteen Candles. It's a funny, sad and true depiction of how high school can really be, and the ending more hollywood than real life, is still really great, and I feel for each of the characters every time I see the movie. I love it, and hope that everyone who is in high school or has faced the same trials and tribulations as these kids have, should watch it. I give it a 10 out of 10. A classic and will stay that way in all of motion picture history.
