iconic 80s John Hughes movie

Rating: 9/10 (3 November 2013)

Five students have Saturday detention in Shermer High School. Teacher Richard Vernon (Paul Gleason) is tasked to monitor the kids and orders them to write an essay. They would call themselves the Breakfast Club consisting of the Brain Brian Johnson (Anthony Michael Hall), an Athlete Andrew Clark (Emilio Estevez) , Basket Case Allison Reynolds (Ally Sheedy), Princess Claire Standish (Molly Ringwald), and the Criminal John Bender (Judd Nelson).
They would talk, fight and become friends. It's got all of the John Hughes moves. It's got a song and dance. It's got his teen dialog which was unlike most teen movies, and so real. Many that followed would be heavily influenced by his style and it would become the new standard for a teen movie. It's arguable that he created his own category of films that would become a main staples of movies. John Hughes plus "Fast Times at Ridgemont High" would usher in the 80s teen movies.
