Every 13 yo I knew loved this movie (like yours truly!)
Is it cheesy? Totally. Is it 80's music cheesy? Definitely. It is STILL an amazing movie. As a young latchkey kid with HBO (like one movie per month!) it was epic.
Don't go in to this movie and expect any insights into the human psyche. That ain't happening.
Go in for laughs; be a kid again; with boundless dreams and a great imagination.
It's appropriately inappropriate. Rated PG by todays standards. The kids today have access to all things.
Some good; most bad.
I recommend this movie; with the above stated expectations.
ENJOY!
