The Breakfast Club

Rated: R
Directed By: John Hughs

This movie is a CLASSIC! Everyone has seen this movie, or at least heard of it. This starts out meeting five high school students with five differnt sterotypes. Andy Clark(played by Emilo Estevez) is your typical jock wrestler. Brian Johnson(played by Anthony Hall) is the geek in this film. Claire Standish(played by Molly Ringwald) she is the prep girl in school. Allison Reynolds(played by Ally Sheedy) shes that wierd girl that no one knows about, you know that one that sits in the back and makes a ceral sandwhich. And then theres John Bender(played by Judd Nelson) and hes the loser, stonner that is a dick to everyone and no one likes. In the end they end up spilling out thier life stories, moments in life they cant get over, or relationships with thier parents and becoming friends for the rest of thier lives, just in an eight hour detention. It makes you really think on how your life has gone, and your parents and maybe how your friends have had a bad relationship with one of thier parents.

Review: 4 1/2 out of 5
This movie always hits home for me. It makes me think about life in general.

I love this movie. I always liked how they all ended up smoking pot in the library and running away from the teacher. This movie is actually very accurate as to what the average teenager goes through. It really incorporates everything. Abuse, suicide, depression, bad family life, divorce, stress of school, and the stress of keeping the grades up along with all the other stress there are that go along with being a teenager. I think this is the kind of movie that almost anyone can relate to and really connect with some point in their life.

I have only seen bits and pieces of the movie unfortunetely. But what I saw of the movie it was really good. I really loved the way people changed at the end and made it such a feel good story. The principal is always memorable because pf what he said. He was always trying to scare the kids by saying something like "dont mess with the bull, you'll get the horns". This movie is very good and makes me want to watch it now.

This movie has to be one of my favorite movies. I had never heard of it till some of the cast members were on the MTV movies awards either a year or two ago, so I decided to watch it. It seriously does remind you of high school because you have a person from a different click, and that click alwats judging the other click. But this is one of my favorite movies.
