Movie Review: Hilarious and Fun
Summary: 5 Stars

This is some of John Cusack's best. It's full of off-the-wall humor that he's so good at. He plays a highschool kid who's having a really tough time, and maybe he'd be better off dead. Of course, by the end of the movie, he gets the French-exchange student girl and wins a ski competition against one of the "snobby" clique guys. It's full of quirky, funny and very memorable characters, ex, the paper boy who torments Cusack's character for the "two dollars" Cusack's character stiffed him on.

Movie Review: Pure 80's laughter
Summary: 5 Stars

With this movie who has a mother that cooks food that always seems to walk off your plate? A funny but short movie with John Cusack in it as the main character. Wanting to beat the popular kid on the mountain slope he goes off to try and win the heart of a girl without killing himself skiing down the mountain. Some good music in this movie, and the best scenes are when his mother tries to cook the food and when she serves it, it seems to walk off their plates. Very 80's and it's a very young John Cusack.

Movie Review: John Cusack is a funny teenager....
Summary: 5 Stars

I remember the first time I saw this movie. A teenager who girlfriend DUMPS him and he can only respond about committing suicide...but his too aware about his surrounding and how high school work. I know its a comedy but it has deep roots of how high school culture...is so so surreal. or fake. you choose. five out of five because its funny, it classic John Cusack (if you like Gross Pointe Blank you'll like this), and it will leave a smile on your face. how about that for a good movie? peace.

Movie Review: 80s magic
Summary: 5 Stars

This is definitely an 80s wacky comedy. If you don't like wild comedies, you probably won't like this too much. It's also directed by Savage Steve Holland who also did One Crazy Summer with John Cusack. I think One Crazy Summer is the better of the two. Both have those same style animation sequences which are entertaining and nostalgic. There are so many lines in this movie that have stuck with me my whole life. "I want my two dollars!" Possibly the ultimate 80s movie.
