Pros: Interesting 80's aspects Cons: Poor plot
"The Breakfast Club" wraps up the 80's teens in one movie. The music, the clothes, the dancing...all typical of the 80's. From that aspect, I enjoyed the movie, but it lacked a lot. I barely know what the movie is about because I could not...

Pros: Wonderful display of acting and deals with real problems Cons: none
I have seen The Breakfast Club too many times to even begin to conjur up a number. This movie is one of those timeless classics that one can watch 300 times and never get sick of it. I respect this movie on so many different levels. It is a...

Pros: great for anyone who is or ever has been a teenager Cons: ----
I love this movie. It very much captures the difficulty of adolescence and high school. It's also the only movie I've seen that honestly addresses the importance of popularity during those years, and the cruelty that that can lead to.
Everyone...

Pros: superb dialogue, entertaining characters Cons: the beauty makeover at the end is slightly patronizing
Possibly the greatest teen line ever: "So Ahab, cay bo mon doobage?"
That line alone pretty much insures three stars even fifteen years on. I think I saw the movie 12 times in regular theater and beyond -- far more than any of the...

Pros: everything Cons: We never hear the end of the topless blonde and dog joke
The Breakfast Club, although almost 15 years old, will still remain as the King of all movies. It's a movie using fewer than 15 actors and actresses.
And the story couldn't be better... Five high school students, each from different circles...

Pros: Excellent performances and a funny, tender and real script Cons: Don't think so.
What makes John Hughes' Breakfast Club such a cult classic among Gen-X ers? Is it the great charaters portrayed by a wonderful cast? Is the nerdy principal we all love to hate? It is the endlessly quoteable lines?--"Does Barry Manilow know that you raid...

Pros: shows what teens are dealing with while making you laugh Cons: i'm not as young as when i first saw it
Who didn't love Molly Ringwald ? As a teen of the 80's i went to see this movie with a friend due to the fact Molly was in it . I actually found myself enjoying the film ,
It really made me realize how as an athlete that liked to party , I was...

Pros: The movie did'nt go overboard like a few others. Cons: Could've found a couple better actors.
I have to admit, I have seen a lot of movies with teens and school, and not to mention some of the classics like Fast Times... and Porky's. I was about 16 when I heard about this film, My girlfriend at the time was talking about Emilio Estevez and...

Pros: None Cons: Dull, tedious, arduous, cheesy, dated, pretentious and sadly overrated by millions
Plot:Annoyingly arrogant teens discuss each others lives while in detention in a predictible farce. A group of teenagers get dropped off at detention by their parents at 7am. They start off arrogant and rebelious. Each of them questions why on earth ...

Pros: The plot, characters, development of the story Cons: nothing
Every kid that has grown-up has encountered the same problems as the prom queen, rebel, jock, nerd and the misunderstood. The movie starts out the way every Saturday detention does. They are imprisoned in the library for the day, by the trying-to-be-hip...

Pros: The best 80's teen movie! Great acting, cast, direction. 100% entertainment Cons: none
Here is a classic 80's teen comedy drama...Great performances, and entertainment! John Hughes is the KING of teen flicks, with movies like Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Sixteen Candles and Weird Science what else could he be?
"You see as...

Pros: Great movie Cons: none
What can I say about the Breakfast Club? I can say that it was great! The brat pack in true form. I loved how they all "hated" each other, then bonded together and had some fun. My favorite part is, of course, when they get stoned in the...

Pros: Great storyline, humorous at times Cons: Stereotypes are too dramatic
Ever since the classic 80s movie The Breakfast Club was released in 1985, it has been considered an instant classic. The basic plot of the movie is that there are 5 teenagers in high school, all belonging to different social cliques. They all, for some ...

Pros: A real classic and good for any age. Cons: A little slow storyline not to exciting.
This really was a good movie for the mid 1980's but for me nowadays it is just a little slow and a little boring especially since I have seen it so many times. It's basically about teenage high schoolers that get detention and have sit in the library all ...
