Movie Reviews of Suburbia

Movie Review: Essential Punk
Summary: 4 Stars

This was a GREAT flick!!! Especially if you had been part of the punk craze in the 80's. Penelope Sphreeris' first film (I think) she wrote and directed this roger corman project and also appearances by Flea from the Red Hot Chili Peppers, and Chris Pedersen who didn't do many roles at all, but also had a cameo in Platoon as well as a few other movies. The music was mostly by the Vandals (great stuff!) and the soundtrack music was credited as being by Alex Gibson, but you can hear Fleas unmistakable bass line in the music. Deadpan funny in spots, sad and ironic in places it roughly captures the feeling and energy of the 80's punk phenominon. A must have for punk fans!

Movie Review: Gritty, realistic, horribly acted....
Summary: 4 Stars

I remember seeing Suburbia when it first came out. Eighteen years later, I'm still moved by this film. The acting is not the best; however, the kids are tangible. The story is more reality based than a lot of people/adult authority figures may ever want to admit or are willing to accept. Social workers and politicians should watch this DVD.

I remember the clubs and the sense of alienation during the early eighties punk scene. Suburbia successsfully captures that mood and oft' times misplaced anger of not only the "Punkers" but the society that wanted to shun them.

The funeral home scene is worth the price of admission...


Movie Review: Very good plot.
Summary: 4 Stars

This movie has an incredible plot showing how society rejects these kids. The storyline is great. The only problem with this movie are the actors. They are terrible at acting. It was like they were scared and were reading their lines off of a teleprompter. Other than that I recommend this movie.

Movie Review: suburbia finally available
Summary: 4 Stars

it's been a long time but finally a peice of my youth has been re-issued and is available for generations to come. This movie dealt with some very touchy issues including the struggle between generations and social groups. i'm glad someone finally made this title available to me again.

Movie Review: Very good!
Summary: 4 Stars

The movie came on time. The only problem was that the plastic in the middle that holds the DVD in place was broken when I received it. When opening the DVD package it appeared that the DVD moved around a little but didn't seem to have any damage.
