The Breakfast club
Speaking of the Breakfast Club. Five high school students have detention on a Saturday for eight hours starting from 7:00a.m until 3:00p.m. Each student has a stereotype “the Athlete, the Princess, the Brain, the Basket case, and the criminal.” The athlete is deeply into sports and says he’s always a winner and is as fast as a race horse and is built for speed. The princess, played by Molly Ringwood, is the girl that always gets stuff that she wants from her dad, when she doesn’t even need the stuff. The brain is the smartest one and is also the nerd that dresses in fashions his parents pick out for him. The basket-case is the girl that has many different problems (seriously she does have lots of problems.) And finally there is the criminal; he’s the guy that does lots of bad things like: doing drugs, getting detentions, and swearing a lot. This movie is very true if you watch it. Some of the things they say really do happen in real life. The things that tend to be true are family issues and doing wrong things like abusing others. The movie has adult language, friendship, home life, love, emotion, and friendship. This is a movie your family would really enjoy. The content is not suitable for young children because there’s drug use, bad language, and some inappropriate scenes. It’s a movie only for teens and adults. Hopefully this is a movie that you will truly enjoy.
