They were five students with nothing in common, faced with spending a Saturday detention together in their high school library. At 7 a.m., they had nothing to say, but by 4 p.m. they had bared their souls to each other and become good friends. John Hughes, creator of the critically acclaimed Sixteen Candles, wrote, directed and produced this hilarious and often touching comedy starring Emilio Estevez, Anthony Michael Hall, Judd Nelson, Molly Ringwald and Ally Sheedy. To the outside world they were simply the Jock, the Brain, the Criminal, the Princess and the Kook, but to each other, they would always be The Breakfast Club.Director:John HughesProducer:Ned Tanen, John HughesWriter:John HughesCast:Molly Ringwald, Emilio Estevez, Anthony Michael Hall, Judd Nelson, Ally Sheedy, John Kapelos, Paul Gleason© 1985 Universal Studios.

Rotten Tomatoes® Score

TOMATOMETER®87%Critics Consensus: If The Breakfast Club's gestures towards authenticity are occasionally undercut by trendy flourishes, its blistering emotional honesty and talented troupe of young actors catapult it to the top of the teen comedy class.ReviewsPreviousElements of MadnessMichelle Swope

Regardless of what generation you were born into, if you’re a teenager, you can find something relatable in the five teenage characters in Hughes’s film, which speaks to the film’s lasting legacy and its authenticity.

1767048813000FULL REVIEWFilm FrenzyMatt Brunson

Perhaps John Hughes' finest hour (he didn't have many, despite a prolific output), The Breakfast Club was the best of the so-called "Brat Pack" features as well as a seminal film for many who came of age in the 1980s.

1765001710000FULL REVIEWThe Film YapChristopher Lloyd

John Hughes' masterpiece, both the lodestone for Generation X and a story of the universality of teen struggles.

1754317092000FULL REVIEWSolzy at the MoviesDanielle Solzman

No list of the best teen films or best films of the 1980s is complete without including The Breakfast Club.

1739892982000FULL REVIEWAustin American-StatesmanPatrick Taggart

I can't remember ever wanting to applaud at the end of a movie, but the only reason I didn't after The Breakfast Club is that I was practically paralyzed with excitement. With this rousing new film... the Hollywood youth film finally comes of age.

1739576191000FULL REVIEWSacramento BeeGeorge Williams

It's almost worth sitting through a hundred of those exploitative, lame-brained teen farces in order to get to the warm and authentic intimacy of The Breakfast Club. It's a grand payoff.

1739577769000FULL REVIEWBay Area ReporterSteve Warren

The Breakfast Club is such a significant film, the fact that it's also a very good one is almost incidental. This movie is so "now" it's the future.

1739575981000FULL REVIEWBoston GlobeJay Carr

The film behaves as if it's dealing in soul-baring insights and emotional deepening. But it's only dealing in plastic. It's rare to encounter such unfailing falseness in a movie that seems to have been launched with benign intentions.

1739575860000FULL REVIEWSt. Louis Post-DispatchHarper Barnes

I suspect all these kids are going somewhere, and Hughes, of course, is already there.

1739575759000FULL REVIEWPhiladelphia Daily NewsJoe Baltake

This ambitious movie attempts to illustrate why we grow up to be cynical and cowardly, why we give in and go along with the crowd, why we hypocritically compromise ourselves and let down and hurt others in the process. The feelings... ring true.
