A hard to forget film

Rating: 10/10 (10 March 2006)

The Breakfast Club is a perfect film from start to finish. Each actor was able to portray their character perfectly. From John Bender, played by Judd Nelson, and his constant lack respect for others, to Brian Johnson, played by Anthony Michael Hall, and his need to stick to the rules. This movie used both comedy and high school drama to portray the lives of teenagers. This film can show teens a different point of view other than their own, and can give adults a view on how hard a teens life really can be.
John Bender was your average "I don't give a s**t about no one and nothing," guy. As soon as the movie starts you know that he won't sit quiet during his stay in Saturday. Brian Johnson was John's polar opposite. Stuck to the rules and always got A's in school, but this movie showed just how hard it is to be like that when you're going to school. Even the popular kids, princess Clair Standish and athlete Andrew Clark, have trouble with pressure to be cool from their friends, and a lack of real love from their parents. And the one person that no one knows the story of, the basket case Allison Reynolds, played by Ally Sheedy. As a way of making her look like a nobody, you don't even hear her name once throughout the entire movie. This movie shows everyone, that no matter how different you think you are, we all have one thing in common.
