thebc-86158 I love "The Breakfast Club" in fact, it's my favorite film of all time. It's simple on the outside but complex the further you go into it just like the characters. It's about 5 teens of 5 stereotypes Criminal, Jock, Nerd, Princess, and Basket-case, who are stuck in detention for a full 8 hours on a Saturday being watched over by an asshole of a principal and a janitor who knows them a little too well. So, why is it good? It sets up a simple story with simple characters who have hidden motives and character traits that unravel in an extremely enjoyable 95 minutes full of heart, and humor that isn't too long or too short. The acting from everyone is every bit as hilarious as it is heartbreaking while we learn about their character and backstory of abuse and crappy home lives outside of their school persona's. John Hughes' directing and writing is as quirky, awkward, dramatic, hormonal, angry, funny, and depressing as high school itself making you cheer for these characters whether they be playing their type or expressing their true selves with a moral of don't judge a book by it's cover. 10\10.

merelyaninnuendo The Breakfast ClubAs much as powerful the screenplay is, John Hughes's attempt to install cheesy and petty inputs in characters to attract younger audience wears down the intensity and gravitas that it had created that easily would have helped it enter the major league. His directorial work is appreciative but deserved a better supervision compared to its script. The performance wasn't up to the mark which is the only thing that itches one down the throat in this old classic. The Breakfast Club is a typical teenage movie retold in the most intriguing way that it is almost impossible not to invest in it and be moved by it (no matter how much familiar their tales may sound but the impact doesn't grow shallow at all).

samuelamiaz This movie describes five teenage caricatures and how they deal with their problems. The movie deals with how different people react to authority, who leads, who comes up with a plan and who curls and in a corner. This movie has helped me grow up and understand myself better as a comulation of a couple of the caricatures.

JP Teen movies usually feature stereotypical, one-dimensional characters. This film gives color to these stereotypes and explore the depths of their personalities.The jock, the outcast, the nerd, the popular girl, and the criminal report for detention on a Saturday. On normal school days, they never talk to each other because of their differences. However, during detention, they find out that they are not so different from each other after all.The cast is amazing. Everyone portrayed their characters perfectly. Judd Nelson stood out as John Bender. I can't imagine the movie without his character. He gave life to the whole film. I got mixed emotions while I was watching this. I felt happy, sad, angry. It can also be heart-wrenching, particularly the scene where Bender makes his family impression. It is just so sad that in reality, some people have lives like him.The ending is good. What will happen on Monday? Will they act the same like they did before detention, ignoring each other? Or will they accept their true selves and continue their newfound friendships?This is an iconic movie. Everyone will still watch it after, say, a hundred years because it's just so amazing.
