Does anybody else love this movie?


I love this movie! I thought Jon was perfect in it. Any other 'Hiding Out' lovers out there?

I love this movie!A classic that I used to watch in the late 80's,early 90's.Jon Cryer is an excellent actor.Havent seen this movie in about 15 years though,and would love to see it again.Very overlooked and underrated film IMO.

this is one in a few 87/88/ movies I like to watch over and over for some reason(Adventures in Babysitting and Can't Buy Me Love being two others).

I really like this movie too,I have not seen it in a few years though...I need to get caught up on watching all my favorite movies,getting ready to start a list maybe,I have pondered this for a few years now.

I completely agree. I actually like this film more than anything John Hughes released because it's grittier and doesn't lapse into cuteness for an easy joke. Jon Cryer takes his part very seriously, the script is thoughtful and well written, the action sequences are well directed, and if that's not enough, it has a killer soundtrack. Pretty Poison? I'm so there!

I love this movie. It's a favorite guilty pleasure of mine. I love Jon&Annabeth in it. Glad it's now on dvd.

The restroom scene is pretty damn funny.

The killing scenes were a bit more graphic than i expected. And his false beard was awful. Other than that this was cute 80's film, especially for those who loved john hughes's 80's films.

reply

Yes, absolutely!

I enjoyed watching it on TV when I was a kid. This would have been the mid-90s.

This is one of my favourite movies. I can never feel down watching it. Jon Cryer is one of the unsung heroes of the 80s to me. No Small Affair, Pretty In Pink, Dudes, Morgan Stewart's Coming Home, this. Just enough to be circling but never quite made in into the Brat Pack remembered it seemed.

Bought it from Amazon Video a few days ago after giving up on finding a DVD. Used to watch it on VHS, but the past 2 years or so it's finally starting to warp too badly to continue on.

The DVD is available online but I always like finding them in secondhand stores. At least I can watch it now on the computer without worrying about static or the film tearing until I find it on disc!
