When five high school students from different cliques are forced to spend a Saturday together in detention, they talk about everything from family problems and peer pressure to sex and hurtful stereotypes while serving time. Ultimately, a jock (Emilio Estevez), a criminal (Judd Nelson), a princess (Molly Ringwald), a basket case (Ally Sheedy), and a brain (Anthony Michael Hall) realize that they have more in common than they ever imagined. Writer/director John Hughes (SIXTEEN CANDLES, FERRIS BUELLER’S DAY OFF) along with the stellar Brat Pack cast makes this a memorable, moving film filled with believable dialogue, intelligent humor, and a sufficient dose of high school hijinx.
