I can’t quite endorse this as the icon many claim it to be, but it is quite well done with excellent performances. Other than that, dated.
Brings back nostalgic memories, a real classic.
this movie was so much cooler than i thought it would be, the soundtrack is bitchin. harrison ford in a cowboy hat is my new type🫶🏻
Cool little slice of life, 50s throwback flick. George Lucas would’ve been a very interesting filmmaker if Star Wars didn’t blow up.
Transports you right to the 60s accompanied by a great soundtrack. Great
Want to see something besides Star Wars that Lucas did? Look no further. This is a really fun one night coming of age film. Baby Ford too.
George Lucas' masterpiece. I love everything about this film. The ultimate hangout movie. Great characters, great music, great cars
Too many other high school movies have came since that are considerably better, hurts the rewatch ability. Still, gets cred for being 1st
Probably would have been better appreciated when it was first released, but it’s still an interesting and engaging coming of age film.
Makes you feel like one of them vintage playlists about drive-ins and diners and angsty teen romance
