This film is hilarious. The ending is honestly perfect. The characters in this film feel like real high schoolers. Also as a side note, I was so shocked to see Nicholas Cage in this. 8.5/10
Johnny likedFast Times at Ridgemont HighNot a really deep plot by any means but enjoyable and funny movie that gives you a look at highschoolers in the 80s, kinda looks like fun wouldn’t have minded growing up in those times tbh

Favorite movie!
Ben Lecker lovedFast Times at Ridgemont HighThis movie is so damn stupid, but also so damn funny. I love fast times at ridgemont high, and I will always stand by that statement. The comedy, while extremely stupid, is so funny and unhinged, and while there isn’t a real coherent story, each subplot feels so well done and funny. Sean Penn was…
Noah March is "meh" onFast Times at Ridgemont High🫎🫎🫎 The soundtrack was pretty good but that’s all this really had going for it. I’m sure it was great when it came out, but it for sure doesn’t hold up today. The only time i was entertained was when Sean Penn was on screen and yet he doesn’t have that many funny moments. I’d rather watch…

If the publicity release can be believed, he worked an entire year undercover as a student to research teenage life. On the basis of what surfaces here - one stock phrase (the kids say Go for it] a lot) and a multitude of stock characters - Crowe might better have spent the time curled up with re-runs of Ozzie and Harriet. Give this intrepid researcher 12 months at General Motors and he might just discover the wheel.

Perfectly capturing the zeitgeist of American high school life in the '80s, complete with a Rubik's cube reference, the funny and occasionally harsh Fast Times, with all due apologies to John Hughes and Mickey Rooney, may be the greatest teen movie ever made (even though Cates was the only real teen).

Sean Penn's scenes are still so stunning...His Jeff Spicoli is an unabashed kick every second he is on the screen.
