The Breakfast Club but with cocaine instead of corn flakes.
CinemaVoid 🏴☠️Jun 21, 2014Charade has often been called the greatest Alfred Hitchcock film NOT made by Alfred Hitchcock. Well I'm here to say that St. Elmo's Fire is the worst John Hughes movie John Hughes never made. St Elmo's Fire is supposed to be a coming-of-age film about the whirlwind…

- Nick Dubberly dislikedSt. Elmo's Fire
I always wanted to be part of a large group of friends that were inseparable in college that continued on through the rest of life, but after watching this, I’m glad that didn’t happen! Man, all of these characters lives are a complete mess! A very skippable film in my opinion.
Loren is "meh" onSt. Elmo's Firegreat cast but I was mad confused what was happening. And why was everyone kissing each other??

- Spencer Rascoff lovedSt. Elmo's Fire
Classic. It stands the test of time. Without St. Elmo’s Fire, there is no Big Chill, no Risky Business, no Gossip Girl, no Friends, no Dirty Dancing. No Beverly Hills 90210 or Melrose Place. Maybe no Sex in the City. The greatest ensemble coming-of-age friends movie or TV series which came…
Lucy Lu is "meh" onSt. Elmo's FireWell I’m not gonna lie that was so confusing😁 However I love Kevin. I really love Kevin. Andrew McCarthy was so fine in the 80’s. I liked Billy’s character until the scene with Jules…. If you’ve seen it you know what I mean.
Cinematic Joshua dislikedSt. Elmo's FireA messy Melodrama of unlikable young adults failing at life and roping in their old college friends to the soundtrack of 1 great instrumental in 10 variations.
- kalina is "meh" onSt. Elmo's Fire
this film had potential…it did not reach that potential…not even close…the bar could’ve been in hell and they still would’ve missed it by a long shot.
Spencer likedSt. Elmo's FireClassic 80’s movie. Solid story, and a good watch all-around.
Julia is "meh" onSt. Elmo's FireNo really sure why this was a classic, not the greatest

Metacritic
St. Elmo's Fire is most appealing when it simply gives the actors a chance to flirt with the camera, and with one another. When it attempts to take seriously the problems of characters who are spoiled, affluent and unbearably smug, it becomes considerably less attractive.
Janet Maslin
The New York Times
Instead of real people, they've created fast-moving upscale wise guys, so thoughtless, so utterly self-absorbed that you're quite content letting them simply love themselves--they do it so well...The St. Elmo's Fire bunch, for all their wheel-spinning melodrama, is all surface--all speed and stylishness without a bit of emotional resonance beneath.
