Short AF Movie Review | The Breakfast Club

Hey guys so today I'm going to be doing a short AF movie review on the movie "The Breakfast Club". As usual this review is going to be short and sweet (like the title suggests) and spoiler free (However there will be the IMDB synopsis in this and sometimes they can contain spoilers however 9/10 times they don't. It's just something to keep in mind if you're planning on watching the movie).


"Five high school students meet in Saturday detention and discover how they have a lot more in common than they thought." 


So as you can see, this movie was recommended to me by ScottDW94 which is what made me decide to rewatch "The Breakfast Club". I'm not gonna lie to you, the first time I watched this was when I was 15 years old, was having a crappy time in school and I honestly thought "what a load of bollocks". I'm really happy that I decided to rewatch it as that would have probably been my thought for the rest of my life. The breakfast club is a feel good movie about 5 teens which are completely different in every way. It was definitely a movie of it's time (what I mean is the way people were different was in the way they looked and not necessarily the reasons people tend to be different today) and showed that no matter how different people can be they can find friendship in some way or another. I love that this was the main and only theme for the movie and I definitely loved seeing the iconic actors in this movie too. If you just want to have a chilled out movie night I would definitely recommend watching this.

My favourite people in the movie:
- John Bender: Okay, so let's be real, the main reason he's one of my characters is because he is exactly my type. He's very cheeky, he's not afraid of anyone and that hair! I loved that he wasn't afraid to call anyone out in the movie and who can forget the famous fist pump?
- Allison Reynolds: Okay so my portrayal of Allison is that she just didn't give a crap about what anyone says or thinks about her. I loved her style and she reminded me so much of me when I was younger.

My least favourite people in the movie:
- Richard Vernon: So to me, Richard Vernon is the worse. All I can imagine is if he was a teacher in a school here he would have been sacked on the first threat, but then again I've gotta try and remember it was a different time. I just really dislike Richard. I don't dislike anyone else in the movie because they all have redeemable characteristics, however Richard just seems to not.

I really loved re-watching this movie and definitely recommend you watch it. I would have regretted it if I hadn't.

What did you think of the movie? Who were your favourite and least favourite characters? Do you have any movies, series or books you'd recommend for me to watch/read or want me to do a short AF review on? Please let me know down in the comments below!

Have a wonderful day.
