Like, 99 minutes of pure boredom! For sure!


I just watched this pile of garbage, and didn't laugh once. This film is overrated to the max.
And having to look at Nick Cage's sewer rat teeth was no walk in the park. Puke.

Jessie: Yeah, well so is geometry.

Seriously?! This is a classic :(

Um its a cult classic! M'kay!

Just because a movie is a classic, doesn't mean its any good. Just because anything is a classic, doesn't mean its good. This movie was so unfunny, it was ridiculous.

well some of us that grew up in the 80s found it to be a cult classic and to say who we liked in the flick....for me it was the VG BFF, who I liked the best and she was entertaining and good to look at...God Bless Stacey in Valley Girl!!!!

You've made your point. Several times.

Some 20 year old movies can stand up for themselves. Obviously, you didn't think this was a good one. Sorry you didn't like it. Most of us here on the board did like it. *shrug* It'd be a boring world if we were all the same.

I agree with you Karen526. My favorite of the movie is Heidi Holicker (Stacey), and I don't many people agree with me, and in real life she's a sweetheart

I agree. Sadly, I have never met her but I have her friended on Facebook and have messaged with her a few times. Nice person, she is.

It was NOT a comedy, dummy.

And it's rated very high on every review site, so I guess nobody shares your opinion.

Does your babysitter know you're up this late?

Hey, just because you're clueless, don't take it out on us.

reply

You mean, like, so clueless. I'm so sure! Not Bitchin' at all!

Seriously,

Can anyone accuse this movie of being over-rated? I don't think anyone mistakes it for Citizen Kane.

At the time, it was watched as a campy little film with a promising young star.

Now, it's a fun time capsule film -- especially fun because it has Cage before he was a big action star.

reply

For sure I agree! I was 15 when this came out and probably saw it 10 times. It's fun to go back and watch it now, as an old stay at home mom, while I clean my house >sigh<
Such a great time to grow up. What did we even worry about?

Kill yourself sooner rather than later.

I agree. This movie is way overrated. Some good moments here and there but overall nothing special or classic. Fast Times is a lot better.
