Amazon.com essential video
John Hughes's popular 1985 teen drama finds a diverse group of high school students--a jock (Emilio Estevez), a metalhead (Judd Nelson), a weirdo (Ally Sheedy), a princess (Molly Ringwald), and a nerd (Anthony Michael Hall)--sharing a Saturday in detention at their high school for one minor infraction or another. Over the course of a day, they talk through the social barriers that ordinarily keep them apart, and new alliances are born, though not without a lot of pain first. Hughes (Sixteen Candles), who wrote and directed, is heavy on dialogue but he also thoughtfully refreshes the look of the film every few minutes with different settings and original viewpoints on action. The movie deals with such fundamentals as the human tendency toward bias and hurting the weak, and because the characters are caught somewhere between childhood and adulthood, it's easy to get emotionally involved in hope for their redemption. Preteen and teenage kids love this film, incidentally. The DVD release includes production notes, cast and crew bios, widescreen presentation, Dolby sound, closed captioning, optional French and Spanish soundtracks, and optional Spanish subtitles. --Tom Keogh

Description
The Breakfast Club, an iconic portrait of 1980s American high school life, is now available in an all-new digitally remastered Flashback Edition with never-before-seen bonus features! When Saturday detention started, they were simply the Jock, the Princess, the Brain, the Criminal and the Basket Case, but by that afternoon they had become closer than any of them could have imagined. Featuring an all-star '80s cast including Emilio Estevez, Anthony Michael Hall, Judd Nelson, Molly Ringwald and Ally Sheedy, this warm-hearted coming-of-age comedy from writer/director John Hughes (Sixteen Candles, Weird Science) helped define an entire generation!

5 out of 5 stars A classic   October 12, 2008
J.L.A. (Missouri United States)
A classic in every since of the word. The movie it'self is great and I have introduced this film to my nieces and nephews who love it too. It's timless and just a good film.


5 out of 5 stars Nice Movie for a Saturday Afternoon   October 9, 2008
Scott Weigand (Doylestown, PA)
Another great John Hughes film, up there with Ferris Bueller and the first two Home Alones.

This film is high school to a T. The memories, personalities, the faculty. Some people call that stupid, and that may be true. For me, this movie encompassed high school all around, and it is nice to spend a Saturday Afternoon watching the film.

The extras are nice, but I got the film for the film. I was looking to buy back a few months back and they discontinued the other releases until this one came out.

I bought this movie on Saterday & recieved it Wednesday in the mail. When I went to watch it I was very pleased of how great it worked for being a used DVD. My experiance with buying used DVD's has been great since I have been buying them from amazon.com. I would recommend this site to anyone who enjoys buying & watching movies.

I remember the first time I ever seen this movie. I was about 7 or 8 and my sister had rented it on VHS. I didn't know what it was all about, but I was in for the best treat!! Today's seniors would benefit from watching this movie!!


5 out of 5 stars We're all pretty bizarre. Some of us are just better at hiding it, that's all.   September 6, 2008

Possibly believed to be the most quintessential film, encompassing the 80's teen genre; The Breakfast Club is a classic piece of what John Hughes did for the 80's.(Which is everything right, really.)

A tale about five very different teens all from different clicks ( Andrew(Emilio Estevez) the jock, Brian(Anthony Michael Hall) the geek, Bender(Judd Nelson) the rebel, Claire(Molly Ringwald) the prep and Allison(Ally Sheedy) the outcast ) get stuck in the longest detention ever, with possibly the most idiotic educator in film to date.

Brilliant performances by all, with so many quotes I could fill a notebook. Who doesn't love telling an authority figure to 'EAT MY SHORTS'!

A classic theme song( Don't you forget about me, don't don't don't DON'T! ) with a winning soundtrack to follow.

I have no complaints, not my favorite John Hughes film(I prefer Sixteen Candles) but a classic none-the-less.

Even if you weren't born yet in the 80's!
