It's a classic in it's genre with all the '80's teen staples, Molly Ringwald, wacky clothing, cool jobs you wish you had, funny nicknames, the lip-synching dance scene, extreme melodrama and questionable moral stances. Jon Cryer stands out here in probably his best role to date as the lovably nerdy Duckie. It's jam-packed full of over-baked cliches, cookie cutter characters and the ending is a rushed mess but it manages to charm and endure with it's call back to a simpler time.
