Pros: acting, script, music Cons: none
There's just something about "road trip" movies. There's also something about "coming of age" films. Take those two somethings and add some very good acting, a fun but thought provoking script and a defective parachute. Now you have Fandago....

Pros: excellent performances from Costner, Nelson, and Robards; great sense of time and place; awesome soundtrack Cons: some sequences drag slightly, but nothing detract too badly from the viewer's overall enjoyment
Say what you will about the 80's, but one thing will always be true-- it was the decade in which the Teen Comedy was raised to a low art form. While most people instantly think of all those insipid John Hughes movies and the endless procession of just...

Pros: great ensemble cast, well-written, Kevin Costner at his peak, Kevin Reynolds at his peak Cons: melancholy at times
Writer/director Kevin Reynolds is best known for his work with Kevin Costner. The two notoriously created ‘Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves’ (1991) and ‘Waterworld’ (1995). But their collaboration began in 1985 when Reynolds cast Costner in a small, ...

Pros: Where else are you going to find a movie that gives Judd Nelson top billing over Kevin Costner? Cons: Not the best road movie, not the best movie about reclaiming lost youth
Fandango is a road comedy set in the 60’s, with four college buddies out to reclaim some lost youth before they’re forced to grow up and/or go to Vietnam. It’s one of those comedies that’s only ninety minutes long but is still padded with unnecessary...

Pros: funny, meaningful Cons: I must admit it's not for everyone
Here's a movie I want more people to know about. This drama/comedy is a movie that my friends and I have watched numerous times and still find it funny and meaningful. Even though we have pretty much all of the lines memorized, we still laugh at them...

Pros: Good time movie; fantastic and thought provoking ending Cons: juvenile though
This movie is about moving on, becoming responsible with your life and
putting aside childish things and becoming an adult. It is a phase that we all
go through,...

Pros: Excellent acting, excellent musical score, touching Cons: Thin plot, a little amateurish
I first saw Fandango while I was still in high school. It was on cable for the first time on HBO and I decided, on a whim, to sit through it. On that fateful night Fandango became one of my all time favorite movies.
I have to agree with...

Pros: I am writing about Fandango the movie ticket service. Cons: Site-is-slow, the-live-help is-dead and I-have-not-been-able-to-get-them-by telephone-in-24-hours.
In addition to the above complaints...
I went to the opening of Harry potter with my printed www.Fandango.com reciept to pick up my tickets.
I have a slew of credit cards but not the one I used for the online purchase. I did what the reciept...

Pros: Story, cast, location Cons: main characters went to UT (no offense)
My wife and I first watched the movie Fandango while living in Lake Charles, LA in the mid 80s. Being from Texas, we were taken back to our homeland by the characters' road trip to the Big Bend country. Even today, almost 20 years after the making of the...

Pros: Everything! Cons: Nothing!
Fandango is Kevin Costners greatest film! And Judd nelson playing the guy who wants to go by the rules shows he has range (Re: the Breakfast Club) If you want to see a great "college" film placed in 1971 with awsome music you will love it! Also...
