great over-looked 80's movie
Added 2/28/2010
My husband loves this movie for it's quirkiness and memorable characters. It is a typical 80's movie (see: John Cusack). It's funny and I would recommend it to anyone who likes this genre of movies.

If you haven't seen this, you're missing out on a classic 80's comedy. Better Off Dead and One Crazy Summer are two of the best comedies of all time. John Cusack is on his 'A Game' in this movie. Pick yourself up a copy right now!

I watch my old teenage favorites with my kids. They are often in love with my old favorites right away. This one is one of their favorites along with "The Breakfast Club", "Sixteen Candles", "Some Kind Of Wonderful", and "The Lost Boys"

classic 80's film
Added 1/4/2010
savage steve holland garnered the teenage viewers like john hughes never could. i love my hughes' films but you cannot beat a claymation of a burger/frankenstein dancing to van halen. oh, oh and the classic line, "gimme my two dollars!!!" my old supervisor and i bonded over that one. and don't forget mom's themed dinners, the green stuff....that moved ewwwww.
i have my teenage daughter hooked on 80s' films. i tore her away from twilight watching john cusack films. she doesn't even care that he's my age now. hi john!
i loved all the 80's movies, even the schlock, and these were nowhere near that level. it's fun and entertaining. it's what a family grouping should include (so my family is different from yours). what better movie to watch with your hormonal teenager than something about another teenager trying to kill himself(and failing miserably at) and finding his happy ending.

Hilarious

John Cusack just represents the typical teenage High Schooler in this movie. When getting dumped it seems like it is the end of the world. Then he meets someone new and the troubles from the first fade away and dont matter any longer. Also- he has a nice classic car!
