This one has not held up well

Rating: 6/10 (19 March 2000)

No doubt this film will always impress teenage viewers---I couldn't stop watching it 15 years ago and was disappointed when my mother dismissed it as "cute" and "self-involved." Well, it is---and although it definately invokes memories of the 1980's, the films self-importance begins to cloud my adult appreciation. Its not as fun as "Sixteen Candles" or "Ferris Bueller's Day Off," also by Hughes.
