Legendary martial arts epic. Just saw an anniversary screening on a big screen.

Surprisingly perceptive and very underrated. I saw this when it came out and the promotional campaign was terrible; this is not a 1980s version of "Superbad" lol. The characters are all college grads or college dropouts, and the film captures that hazy, stoner period of the early 20s, pre-career world very well. Honestly, this is one of Kristen Stewart's best performances and the period detail (1987) and the soundtrack are first-rate. Think of the movie "Waiting..." (also starring Ryan Reynolds) but only if it was written by Woody Allen lol.

This movie is not rated NC-17 Google.

Disney's 80s animated features are sorely underrated.

Sure...it's formulaic, but at least it doesn't take itself as seriously as Dead Poets Society. The movie is fun and fulfills its purpose. How the hell could this movie cost 40 million to make? I guess half of that was DeVito's salary.
