A great performance from Christian Slater coupled with a great soundtrack makes for an entertaining movie.
Quintessential film for Generation X. Definitely not as good as you remember it, but bless this film for its fantastic soundtrack.
Super cool idea for a movie! Awesome cast! But I wouldn't watch this one with my parents.
Christian Slater out there making all of us want to be DJs.
A must watch movie. Christian Slater in his prime.
Brilliantly conveys the existential angst inherent to the teenage experience. Slater's charm and critiques still stand up even today.
Great drama movie, but of a cult classic and one of Slaters best performances. Worth watching
Really good movie at the time. Christian Slater had some good ones back then
I love this film because it's very simple and with funny story.
Rewatched this with my daughter recently and it holds up well , still as angsty as I remembered. Light teen fare, don’t forget to talk hard
