Movie Reviews of Valley Girl

Movie Review: Valley Girl on DVD, all is right with the world.
Summary: 5 Stars

I've been waiting for years now for this 1982 cult classic to be released in DVD format and now it is here. Now go get it! Those who know the film will agree, this thoroughly entertaining "Romeo and Julie" story is fun from beginning to end and will transport you to a beautiful,1980's pink and aqua world of mallrats, hollywood punkers and mean ... jocks. Just a couple of complaints though. During the scene where Randy waits for Julie in the shower stall during the party, what happened to Men At Work's "Who Can it Be Now?" Also very glaringly absent from the DVD's 20 year look back on the film is Deborah Foreman. ...

Movie Review: Great 80s nostalgia
Summary: 5 Stars

When this film debuted in 1983, some viewers were disappointed because the obvious song, Moon Unit Zappa's "Valley Girl" wasn't in it, but it was fun anyway. Teen cultures clash when the punker from Hollywood meets the elegant prom princess from the Valley and the kids fall in love. Nicolas Cage shows his future promise in this early role, and the climactic fight scene, where he whips Julie's boyfriend, hijacks their prom limo and then takes her to the hotel room the boyfriend had reserved is still one of my favorite movie scenes. Recommend for anyone who loved the 80s, and today's teens who want a good date movie.

Movie Review: Best Representation of the 80's
Summary: 5 Stars

I am an 80's girl to the core. And the only thing that I have to say is that this IS the movie that people must watch if they want to know what the 80's were like. There are many great 80's movies out there...Fast Times, Sixteen Candles and the Last American Virgian. But this is the ultimate 80's movie. If you put this movie in a time capsule and opened it 50 years from now (keep in mind this movie is already 20 years old) anyone who watched it would not have one question about what it was like to be a teenager in the 80's. Also just one more thing...the soundtrack is the BEST!!!! TRIPENDICULAR!!!!

Movie Review: an overlooked classic, finally on DVD
Summary: 5 Stars

For years unavailable, "Valley Girl" is one of the best teen movies of the 1980's. It manages to rise above cliche and features fine acting as well as a REALLY COOL soundtrack. The young Nicholas Cage plays the Hollywood bad boy with a golden heart and the effortlessly effervescent ( I've been waiting YEARS to type that phrase )Deborah Foreman is the title character who has the guts to stand up to her friends and follow her heart. Forget the naysayers who reject this movie as unrealistic, I for one think California girls really talked like that in 1983.

Movie Review: 80's Best
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a classic! Nicolas Cage and Deborah Forman although very young perform one of the most memorable movies in 80's era history. It seemed like they both had chemistry working closely together as the two main stars of this movie. Deborah Forman unleashed the beginning of a new fashion and language era that could be seen and heard for almost the entire 80's era. Of course anyone that grew up in the 80's won't ignore the fact that the soundtrack for the movie is unforgetable as well. I say this is one of my favorite movie of it's time.
