A classic for all the right reasons.

Rating: Null/10 (27 March 2016)

I had heard of the The Breakfast Club before this year, but never got the chance to watch it. And when i did watch it, and finally got what the long-time hype was about.
The plot is the really simple to explain,5 kids from a high school have to go to an all day detention. and that's it. But all theses kids are from different places and high school groups and would never talk to each other by choice.The Jock, the Princess, the Nerd, the Basket- case and the future Criminal.
But the main focus is all about that their all so much more than that one characteristic. And they all have a lot more in common than they seem. Just because their labelled doesn't mean there not so much more. And as the movie goes on, they do become friends because they have some things in common doesn't mean they also have differences and clash.
All the performances are very good, every actor fully understands their character. All the characters are like-able for different reasons, but my personal favourite is Bender. He's honest, doesn't care what people think about him , he knows how everyone works and can figure them out a person just by looking at them and also is a great s**t talker.
i was honestly shocked when i found this film had only won 1 award, when it deserves more. Although the story may seen cliché now with things like Glee and Perks of being a wallflower etc. But still is a 80's classic, story telling at it's best and still relate-able to this day.
