Movies are meant to entertain and that's exactly what this movie does. Its funny, it moves along at the perfect pace. And its real. Its a time travel back to the 80's and it hits the 80's feel directly on the mark. Sure some "professional" critics trashed this movie, but seriously, not every movie has to "mean something." This is a fun, irrelevent look back at one night in a time that was very different than things are now.
if you want to watch a movie and forget about how "real" and serious your regular life is, then this a great movie to watch. And yes, I was in my 20's during the 80's and this is what being in your 20's was like back then. Anyone who says different, well, they weren't 20 then or else they spent their time staying in and not being part of life and fun.
