Smart, Indignant, Witty, Wonderful Film

Rating: 8/10 (22 December 2008)

When I first saw this movie years back, the kind of humor that was used help the movie just stick in your mind forever. Its a fable who's characters seemingly know it's fable taste yet help move the plot along with great acting in a great script. It is a true classic that if you don't see it for an extended amount of time, seeing again is just as enjoyable as when you last saw it. Cynical yet exploring, taut yet entertaining humor, the script is spectacularly written and the characters that develop over the course of the movie fit together with seem-less ease and beautiful cinematography. I love this film and if you haven't seen it then it definitely, in my opinion, is a movie that you should make a priority to see as an essential 80's movie.
