One of those movie experiences that is so good it makes you realize you've been grading everything else on a curve.

2017 and I'm just now watching this movie. I think everyone who has ever dealt with a bully can certainly relate. This movie shows us how to stand up to the bullies. I loved it! I'm a Mary Stuart Masterson fan, ever since she played in 'Chances Are', one of my faves. She played really great 'innocence' in both these movies, and that's the sort of charm I like about these two movies with her in them. Eric Stoltz has played in a lot of movies, but I cannot remember him in anything else that I have seen (and there are many of his movies I haven't seen yet). So far, this is the one that will stick with me. To me, this movie was about how to stick up for yourself when it comes to bullies. It's worthy of your viewing! Enjoy!

"Worst pathetic worse not useful also unfair to women as a program for men to cum for new personalities ... Memphis Belle II Wild Weasel still fags for it... Cigar Store Indienne ... Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii.... "Moped sucked "Stoltz means to believe he is performing acting ? far too angry maybe believes evil people are trying to undermine him which although true warrants less frustration also he does not cum on for basically nice but really pathetic ... realism was not required so what if he existed this type of person he might be friendlier or not so worried... more cute than plausible ... less turgid than faggot pathetic maybe needs less fag too MKULTRA on my ride to Harvard "I bought "Poland a History by Cambridge and had already had "Disturbed on Tennessee plates also "Can I take Jessica with me''''''"DigitalEquipmentCorporation

This film was a sleeper from the 80s that didn't get enough recognition. What makes this film so great is the combination of non-glossy actors, perfectly timed non-mainstream rock/pop music, and a grittiness that wasn't often seen in 80s romance teen films. Eric Stoltz portrays an A-typical male lead role, Keith, who was more cerebral than heartthrob. Mary Stuart Masterson stole the entire film with her brilliant portrayal of the tough, Tomboy best friend, Watts, who is actually very vulnerable and loving. Elias Koteas is particularly great as the juvenile delinquent who makes the end of the movie absolutely epic! I have to say that the music is just brilliantly done in this film, enhancing and complementing every single scene and eliciting the appropriate mood. Lastly, this film boasts what I believe to be the VERY BEST ON-SCREEN KISS EVER! Never before have I seen a more complex kiss; it manages to be awkward, romantic, and arousing all at the same time.
Wilder Movie Reviews
This is a film written by the late John Hughes. He has always had a talent for writing realistic and engaging characters as shown in many of his other films including The Breakfast Club, Pretty in Pink, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Home Alone, & Uncle Buck. All great films and with this one he pulls it off again.The story follows Keith (Eric Stoltz) as he tries to discover his place in the world dealing with his overbearing father who is desperate for him to go to college. Keith is infatuated by popular girl Amanda Jones (Lea Thompson) and he invites her on a date, she accepts and Keith along with help from his best friend, a tomboy called Watts (Mary Stuart Masterson), plan the most amazing date.The cast including Eric Stoltz, Mary Stuart Masterson, Lea Thompson, Craig Sheffer, John Ashton & Elias Koteas is great and all bring something great to each character. The story is basic but it draws you in and doesn't let go. The scenes are beautifully shot and the soundtrack brings the film come to life.This is a really fun film with some great twists and fun characters. The standout character is the skinhead Duncan played by Elias Koteas who steals every scene he is in.John Hughes has created another under rated masterpiece. It is not as well known as Ferris Bueller's Day Off & Home Alone, but due to the more serious tone of the film, this is better.This is a great film, perfectly made and flawless. It's one I can watch time and time again.
