I've watched both the Breakfast Club and Sixteen Candles more than once and each time is more exciting than the last. The Breakfast club is one of the greatest films of the eighties, deliciously capturing the vibe of the times and Sixteen Candles is just as good. If you've grown up during the eighties and are looking to reminisce or just to have a good time, these movies are classics. By the way, Molly Ringwald is in both movies and she is one of the ultimate eighties icons.

The Breakfast Club and 16 Candles are both great movies that captures the feeling of the decade. I have watched both of these movies many times and they still continue to provide laughter and entertainment for my friends and I. So if your looking for a great movie to sit down and watch, then I recommend both of these movies!

really enjoyed it! i must have watched it about 100 times. a good movie which shows how life in the 80's brought a bunch of kids together. my friends and i relate to it too! a must see!

A movie for all who grew up in the 80's. Definative a time when parents were to busy to care, and kids to appethetic to think. A must see.

Without question The Breakfast Club is one the hallmarks of 80's film making. In one small low budget movie John Hughes captures the very essense of an entire generation, and the greatest decade in History. A must for anyone who grew up in the Big 80's, or wonders what it was like... Sixteen Candles further exemplifies the quirkiness that typified those of us fortunate enough to grow up during the 1980's. Molly Ringwald and Anthony Michael Hall both contributed greatly to bringing their generation and all it's baggage to life on the big screen. Another must for lovers of the Great 80's... Other film finest of the 80's I suggest: Pretty In Pink, Purple Rain, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Weird Science...

Let's face it. We all went to high school where the socialites and the jocks ran the school while the rest of us were considered low class. We couldn't get respect at school or at home. The co-central character Samatha played brilliantly by Mollie Ringwald, wants to be sought after by the best looking boy in school and honored at home on the most important day of her life, her sixteenth birthday. The other co-central character Farmer Ted aka The Geek played by Anthony Michael Hall wants to be the high school stud but is hopelessly pure geek. Samatha and The Geek both end up obtaining all they ever dreamed of and more within 24 hours time. Heck of a deal. The movie is really enhanced with the continuous smart ... remarks of Samatha's little brother and the wild and sex crazy Long Duk Dong played by Gedde Watanable. Property and Casualty Insurance claims adjusters best avoid this movie but hey, the kids were only having fun.

I don't think the VHS movie tract is the original film score but I can't that say for sure. I watched the movie the second time with closed captions to catch even more of the jokes. There are plenty of visual jokes as well throughout the movie, too many to list.

I ran across this box set while looking for The Breakfast Club. One of my all time favorite movies. I also enjoy Sixteen Candles, so I couldn't pass up this great deal!! Both are relatable movies, especially Breakfast Club with all the different cliques in high school. Ahhh, what memories they bring back.

A movie for all who grew up in the 80's. Definative a time when parents were to busy to care, and kids to appethetic to think. A must see.
