The Breakfast Club (1985)


A comedy drama by John Hughes, starring Molly Ringwald and Emilio Estevez.
A group of 5 students spend a Saturday in school detention and get to know each other better than they would have otherwise.
The beginning of this film is funny and interesting. The characters are all stereotypically unique and everything seems to be coming together to make a great film. About half way through, the movie takes a dive into the crap zone and all of the characters become more similar. By the end, everyone is friends and they have all lost their defining characteristics. By the last scene where they walk out of the school, romantic relationships have mysteriously formed for all but one of the students and this ending makes me want to flush the film down the toilet. Yes, I can rate a film like this in the way I have. It's my fucking blog.
