Summary: One of the most memorable coming-of-age movie!
Review: When I think of the most impressive coming-of-age movies, Say Anything and Wild Reeds (95,French) will always come into my mind first. Both movies are so truthful, realistic and deliever the emotion in such a natural way with quiet but amazing depth.

I checked out Say Anything without knowing anything about it, and ended it up with such a pleasant surprise and became a Cusack fan ever since. The more I watch it, the bether I feel about it.

Made in 1989, I found this movie not only a stand out in 80s teen movies, but also exceeded most 90s teen movies. This is a movie I can watch over and over again without getting bored. Sadly say, most 90s teen movies are only worth seeing once.

The break up scene is one of the most touching ones in its genre. "I feel like crying... She gave me a pen, I gave her my heart, she gave me a pen." Cusack made Lloyd one of the remarkably endearing roles in all teen movies. Lloyd is far from a hero, he is a "champion mediocrity" (Diana's Dad's quote) who has no career goals except being a kickboxer. Normally this kind of guy can not win my heart. However, Cusack made LLoyd an awesome one. He made her laugh, he pointed out the glass for her to walk around, he said the thing that he really meant it,...I never realized that all those trivia can be so powerful to a girl until I watched Say Anything.

"One question: you are here coz you need someone or coz you need me? ... forget it, I don't care."

A must see!

Summary: One Quote Explains It All
Review: Lloyd in a nutshell...

"I don't want to sell anything, buy anything, or process anything as a career. I don't want to sell anything bought or processed, or buy anything sold or processed, or process anything sold, bought, or processed, or repair anything sold, bought, or processed. You know, as a career, I don't want to do that."

Summary: The BEST Teenage Romantic Movie EVER
Review: Seriously, everybody, this movie is fantastic. You don't have to be a John Cusak fan to love it, but if you aren't one going in, you will be one by the end of the movie. It is funny and touching and Lloyd Dobbler IS the perfect man. Please watch it. You'll love it. I promise.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A True Love Story
Review: As a Cusack fan, I rented this movie to watch with my girlfriend. She melted, utterly. So did I. Even if you have no one to watch it with, it's a must see, as an instructional video for love. Girls, Lloyd Dobbler (John Cusack) is what to expect from a guy. Guys, Lloyd Dobbler is who you want to be

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Wonderful Teen Romance!
Review: This is a Wonderful, honest and knowing teen romance. John Cusack is great as the charismatic kickboxer Lloyd, and so are Ione Skye and John Mahoney. Great film that stands way above the average teenage drama-romance, they don't make them like this anymore. Great acting, great script, rings true to many viewers, see this movie. If you like John Cusack I recommend 'The Grifters'. From a scale of 1-10 I give this movie an 8!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A perfect romantic comedy
Review: Although this movie could be classified as one of those 80's high school comedies, it really transcends that genre - it has a timeless quality that will appeal to anyone, regardless of age. There are more classic moments in this movie than I could list here - including the most famous scene where Lloyd (the totally adorable John Cusack) serenades Diane (Ione Skye) with one of the most beautiful love songs ever written, "In Your Eyes" by Peter Gabriel. A lot of the other reviews have mentioned how they wished they could find someone like Lloyd Dobler, and I am in complete agreement. He may not have everything in the world going for him, but he knows how to treat a girl right and love her completely, and that's what counts! Everyone should watch this movie - women can love it for the wonderfully romantic story, and it should be required for men to watch this film so they will know exactly what kind of man every woman wants!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: simply sweet and funny
Review: I have never been a fan of romantic movies but found this one sweet and touching I love this movie and think that it and the breakfast club are the best 80's movies period.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Funny, Touching... Just plain good!
Review: Say Anything was so good. It had comedy, drama, romance... Everything I could ever ask for. John Cusack and Ione Skye were great as love-struck teens. Lili Taylor was really funny as friend of John Cusack's who had written over 60 songs for her ex. Buy this movie. You will *NOT* regret it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Where it all began!
Review: It's just a shame that this movie came out in the John Hughes era as this is definetely the best of the teen movies. However, it's also the least watched of the teen movies cos hardly anyone knows about it.

You have Cusack doing his usual broody acting, you have his sister being his contact with reality, the one-two act seen also in Grosse Pointe Blank, and then you have his love interest who's recent forray into the acting business was 'Dreams for an Insomniac.'

However, this is different from all the other teen movies churned out at this time, something similar to whats happening in the Asian movie industry. This film actually has a plot, the parents in the film actually have some substance. It also has one of the funniest characters in all teen movies. The girl who's wrote hundreds of songs about her ex-boyfriend.

Isn't it ironic how the best of the era always shines through though. They may have bombed at the time but now they're starting to come into their own!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: "I gave her my heart, and she gave me a pen!"
Review: I saw this movie because there was nothing else on and I ended up watching the whole thing. I was so surprised to see Joan Cusack (one of my favorites) in it. It was such an 80's movie and I love it for that! Now my list goes "Breakfast Club", "Pretty In Pink", "Say Anything..." There are so many memorable parts. If you like 80's movies like the ones mentioned above then you'll like this movie.
