Ferris Bueller's Day Off (1986)



Charming. Entertaining. Goodness. (CEG)

Final Verdict: It's not laugh-out-load funny, nor outrageous or surprising. It's not complex, isn't deep, and it lacks any real over-the-top theatrics . It's still amazing however, dare I say perfect, in it's simplistic, quirky, and honest execution. Kudos to director John Hughes for some really beautiful cinematography. This film is one of a kind, a classic, and the hallmark of modern cinema; it's more than gained my stamp of approval.

Spoiler(s): Platoon. Two and a Half Men. Navy Seals. Spin City. Are you getting this? Should I continue? Hot Shots! Men At Work. Young Guns. Please tell me you're getting this... Major League? ...Denise Richards... Anything?

Rotten Tomatoes Rating: 80%

"Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it."
-Ferris Bueller
