The best teen film of the 1980's and beyond.

Rating: Null/10 (28 June 2004)

I would have to say that this movie about teens is the best in the 1980's and beyond,this movie really gets to the heart of what being a teenager can be and the pain of been a teenager.Five teenagers having to spend a whole Saturday in detention at first didn't know one another but got to become friends.Andrew Clark(Emilio Estevez),John Bender(Judd Nelson),Allison Reynolds(Ally Sheedy),Clair Standish(Molly Ringwald),and Brian Johnson(Anthony Michael Hall) learned more about each other as time went on.The principal Richard Vernon(Paul Gleason)looked down at them like they were very bad people,not realizing they are human like him,but learned some things from Carl the Janitor(John Kapelos)about being a teen.The gang starting to bare their souls about the way their parents treated them,that really showed that their differences do not outway their similarities.All friendships start out that way.This film really talked to me in many ways,I am an 80's man,I miss the days.This film I give 2 thumbs up and 10/10 stars.The soundtrack is so awesome,Simple Minds "Don't You Forget About Me"is an awesome song and the other songs like "We Are Not Alone"by Karla Devito is a super song.I recommend buying the Soundtrack.
