Best movie ever!
... View MoreAlthough I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
... View MoreOk... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies
... View Morewhat a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
... View MoreThe naive and clumsy Jonathan (Andrew McCarthy) joins the prep school Vernon Academy expecting to go to Harvard. He befriends his wealthy roommate Skip (Rob Lowe) and soon he sends Jonathan to Chicago to lose his virginity. Jonathan meets the thirty and something years old Ellen (Jacqueline Bisset) and they have a love affair. Jonathan lies to her about where he studies and he falls in love with her. When they decide to travel to New York, Ellen accidentally discovers that Jonathan studies at the Vernon Academy and she vanishes. In the Christmas break, Skip invites Jonathan to spend the holiday with his family, and Jonathan has a huge surprise finding who Ellen is. "Class" is a pleasant movie that begins very funny, with Andrew McCarthy, Rob Lowe, John Cusack and Virginia Madsen very young. Jacqueline Bisset is extremely beautiful and fits perfectly to the role of Ellen. Unfortunately the story is lost between comedy and drama with a disappointing conclusion. My vote is six.Title (Brazil): "Uma Questão de Classe" ("A Question of Class")
... View MorePrep school with the usual rich kids and some of their childish antics both mark another coming of age movie.Both Rob Lowe and a long-haired Andrew McCarthy are in the same room at school and become fast friends. It appears that each enjoys playing tricks on the other. Go know that when Lowe wants McCarthy to have an experience with the woman, that woman, Jacqueline Bisset, turns out to be Lowe's mother. You can imagine what occurs what Lowe finds this out.Cliff Robertson stars as Lowe's capitalist father. Is it any wonder that he has driven wife Bisset into the state of mind that she currently has?A tribute to the prep school years without the Mrs. Robinson connection.
... View MoreThe story was so slow and pointless I found myself hunting around the room for small spores that might possibly sprout and grow into mushrooms by the time each actor managed to solidify his thoughts long enough to mumble a poorly worded and retarded sentence.The story could have ended up with a point but it stopped dead in the middle of nothing. Do not watch this movie. I repeat: DO NOT WATCH THIS MOVIE.
... View MoreI love the Brat Pack so any of the movies that they are in are a go for me, no matter how little ratings it got. I am drawn to it. There are so many favorites in this movie-Virginia Madsen, which I remember from Fire with Fire, another 80's flick, Alan Ruck, from Ferris Bueller, John Cusack, Andrew McCarthy, and Rob Lowe. All cool. I graduated 1988 so these are my kind of films!I love the way McCarthy gets back at Lowe. God that is so funny! Watch it if you get the chance!
