Rating: Summary: It's about time! Review: Well finally we are getting this movie on Dvd! I can't wait to check it out in all it's widescreen glory. I saw this movie in the theater when I was 10 years old and I loved it! I just swooned for Andrew McCarthy back then. Jon Cryer is excellent!! He makes me laugh so hard in this flick. "Blane?! His name is BLANE? That's not a name, it's a major appliance!" Yeah and uh what exactly kind of name is Ducky? LOL, awesome awesome movie. This is one of the examples of why of love 80s teen movies. God Bless John Hughes! :)
Rating: Summary: It's Great! Review: PRETTY IN PINK is one of my favorite movies. It combines love, comedy and relationships w/ both friends and family. Not only is Molly Ringwald a great actress, but there's Duckie too! He's halarious. Though I think the original ending would be more suitable (Andy ending up with Duckie rather than Blair), it still is a fabulous movie. I love it!
Rating: Summary: Unfunny 80's Teen Comedy, With A Really Good Soundtrack. Review: Pretty In Pink was basically a bad way to bring back Molly Ringwald into her own teen movie. Now, producers thought that if she was good in Sixteen Candles, she's be good in this...but this movie was just really bland and had nothing really going for it except for a really good sountrack. The plot was confusing, and Molly's character in this movie wasn't likeable, and she got annoying as the movie went on. The first 5 minutes spoiled you, because it looks as though it might be good for the rest of the movie, but it goes downhill instead.
Rating: Summary: PRETTY IN PINK REVIEW: Review: Well first off read the paragraph at the top of this page!!! AND VOTE FOR A DVD EDITION!!! I'm "DYING" to see it on DVD because I'm sure it will include the original ending where Andie get's "Ducky" not Blake!!! And...The reason they changed the ending was because on preview screenings ppl booed at the ending because she ended up with Ducky!!! And I'm dying to see the one where she get's Ducky, so even if you don't like this movie or haven't seen it vote anyways, PLEASE!!! *THANKS* a TON!!! Lol, the movies good for a teeny movie, the only thing that could be better is the ending. John Cryer(Ducky)is so cute and harlarious(also NOTE: he kinda looks like a duck!!!seriously!!!)Anyways...Its your basic girl get's dreamy looking guy...Not that she much cared for him, of course it would have been girl get's her best friend....Anyways...I'm sorry this prolly isn't helpfull at all!!! But no really this movie is worth watching and if you liked Breakfast Club your bound to like this, or if you like ANY teeny bopper movies for that matter you'll love this!!! God Bless ~Amy
Rating: Summary: great! Review: This film is beautiful, Andrew McCarthy is hot! I prefer Some Kind of Wonderful but this is just sweet!
Rating: Summary: Pretty In Pink! Review: I just saw this movie 4 the 1st time this weekend, I liked it a lot, it was on right after the movie sixteen candles, so it reminds me of that movie since the main girl is also in that movie too, anyway, this is a great movie. Its an older one about a girl who is poor and not very popular who has a popular rich guy crushing on her.
Rating: Summary: One heck of a good film!!! Review: This is one of my favorite 80's movies. The best scene is when Duckie is laying on his bed listening to The Smiths. (and if you watch in the record store you see a Smiths record too!)But enough of that.It's a good,fun movie with good music (New Order) in it and cool clothes.
Rating: Summary: Great characters in an enjoyable movie Review: Some interesting characters appear in this film based around the traditional American movie standby, the High School Prom. Who is taking whom, what will they wear, who loves whom, and who is whose true friend. This is about a group of teenagers, specifically one girl and her attempts to cop off with a rich boy. The insight into the American 'class system' will enlighten British viewers as there are closer comparisons with our own class system than might at first be obvious, although the American system seems to be based on money rather than anything else. Having said that, the 'can love exist between people from such different backgrounds' plot was hackneyed after Shakespeare did it with Romeo And Juliet, so by the time we get to 1984 we don't really care whether she gets him or the other guy. This is entertaining, yet examines the relationships of young-adulthood with a subtle intelligence. The sets, costumes, and music are very clever in that they evoke the 1950s whereas they firmly pinpoint the movie in the 1980s. Ringwald shows here that you don't need to be conventionally attractive to be a star
Rating: Summary: Great Movie! Review: I don't understand some of the comments I am reading..oh well..This movie is so good, I guess I would say that Andie is a girl who does not live in the rich part of town, but not exactly the slums either, and its not that she is unpopular, she is just her own person, and some of the rich, popular girls tease her about her clothes, which she makes herself and are a little different, but cool, but I think the girls that pick on her are just mean, and those types of people do exist in highschool, and they always find someone to pick on...Andie has friends, they are just not the rich, popular ones...And they are seniors, so H.S. is almost over, and Andie is pretty, so I can see Blaine wanting to ask her out, why not???? Then he gets a little nervous about losing all his friends over it, well he probably realizes, he likes Andie, and she likes him, and there is life after H.S. right? Well Andies best friend "Duckie" who is so awesome, especially when he does that little lip sinc to "try a little tenderness" that was one of my favorite scenes in any movie ever...very cool!!!!He is in love with Andie and is mad when she decides to go with with Blaine, which he says is a major appliance not a name...haa haa...but it all comes together in the end...Great Movie...Two thumbs up!!!
Rating: Summary: Pretty In Pink movie review Review: Pretty in Pink is a 3 thumbs up movie. It's about an underprivileged girl named Andie Walsh. She is bright, beautiful, independent and really talented on the sewing machine (if you know what I mean)Her mother walked out on her and her father 3 years earlier, so this causes her dad to not be able to hold down a job. She's hassled at school by popular "richies." Her best friend, Duckie, who's real name is "Phil," secretly loves her. Her mentor is her boss at a small record store, Iona. Her life suddenly turns up when she's asked out by a rich romeo, Blane McDunnough. They're very happy until all of the richies force Blane to dump her while Duckie is mad at Andie. Now Andie, an underprivileged Cinderella, has to choose between two prom prince's, a rich guy of her dreams, or the person who dedicated his life to her. This movie has a happy ending and a genius plot that will bring tears to your eyes. I highly recommend this movie for everyone! Molly Ringwald did a stunning performance and really opened up the 80's eyes to what people who aren't rich go through in suburban america.
