This rewatch was frustrating and somewhat infuriating. Not because the film disappointed, no, it's still as funny and perfectly balanced as ever. It's because, in over 30 years, the problems kids face because of self-centred adults haven't changed the slightest.
DirkHa bunch of kids in detention come together and bond over the fact that despite being different, they are all terrible.

Parker Henmi lovedThe Breakfast ClubGoing from 5 random high school students, all from different cliques, to “friends” over the course of this movie makes it 100% worth the watch. Everyone has their part to play. Absolute classic I’d recommend to anyone.
Lee Mcgiggles dislikedThe Breakfast Clubthis movie’s high praise hinges completely on nostalgia and lacks the nuance that is imperative in portraying an interesting coming of age film. it heavily relies on the stereotypes first introduced and does not do anything to imply that the characters could end up bonding
SacredSpider lovedThe Breakfast ClubA brain, a beauty, a jock, a rebel, and a recluse. This movie is CRIMINALLY underrated. You don’t have to feel obligated to watch eighteen sequels. (Complete review on comments)

Ex. Austin Powers lovedThe Breakfast ClubWhy’d they do that to the loml then make her kiss they wrestler☹️
Tiff dislikedThe Breakfast Clubit’s literally a bunch of teenagers in detention they all share their sob life story and how there traumatized and have so many issues in life so they conform to the societal high school norms, cuz they can’t truly be themselves.😭 and it’s a pretty old movie.

Universal acclaim based on 392 Reviews
Before lapsing into the land of the insipid,... John Hughes actually made a few movies that shined some light on the trials of modern adolescence. The Breakfast Club is one of them.
Marjorie Baumgarten
Austin Chronicle
From the neon-sign opening titles to the derivative angst of the dialogue, it's a touchstone of '80s pop culture, and a schizophrenic one, too.
