Best family rock movie made, love joan jett!
Added 5/31/2009
Waited in anticipation for this movie, I like micheal j. fox, joan jett, and even gena rowlands, how many of us have a g.r. for a mom? What i wished i'd had was a joan jett sister. My older sister liked dan fogelburg (barf). The music was fantastic, would have liked to have heard the hunz alittle more. Loved the suprise revelation j.j. laid on her mom on her death bed. This is a great representation of real life and i applaud their effort. My only problem was i couldn't find a decent vhs copy, the ones i bought had glitches in them would very much like a dvd. If you love rock, and love joan jett you'll enjoy this movie. Finally saw her in concert recently, she still looks good and plays very well. T.y. N.R.J.

Why isn't this film available on DVD?
Added 1/2/2009
An underrated classic! Soundtrack by the Boss, performed by Joan Jett, I don't know why awards didn't abound. The Michael J. Fox foundation should sell copies of this DVD for Parkinson's research. It's that mega-good! Please, please, please release this on region-1-DVD!

Not Yet Born In The U.S.A.....
Added 8/13/2008
Being we never had a stateside release of this film on dvd, lets see a U.S.A. blu-ray release! The music is awesome, the acting is incredible (esp on Joan Jett and Gena Rowlands behalf).
I have copies on VHS tape, but I just upgraded everything in my entertainment center to hi-def 1080P plasma and bluray. In otherwords, there is no more vcr in my entertainment center!
Blu-ray would make this movie even more incredible!
A bit of trivia for you:
Born In The U.S.A.
Not many people remember that this film was originaly slated to be titled "Born in The U.S.A.". Then Bruce released the tune he wrote for this film on his album titled of the same name (and he was originally to be cast in the film as well). An out of court agreement was made and Bruce wrote another tune, "Light of Day". Any fan of Springsteen or Joan should you-tube the video of them Performing this song together. It's INCREDIBLE!!

Almost as good as "Teen Wolf Too"
Added 2/11/2007
Is there a more perfect mom and dad in the world than Alex P. Keaton and Joanna "Jo" Marie Polniaczek from "The Facts of Life"? Or were they supposed to be brother and sister? In any case, they really know how to cook up a tearjerker and they can definitely take care of a nauseatingly cute tyke monster. I personally think it was a mistake for Jo to switch from militant lesbian biker babe to white trash heterosexual. However, anything to improve on Alex as GOP spokesmodel I would have to say is a turn for the better.
