Bueller Bueller Bueller    January 5, 2009
Cheryl A. Baker (New York)
Movie was in great condition! I've loved this movie forever and could never find it anywhere. Thanks TvBoxset for your website so people can find things that are really still out there! My 2 month old grand-daughter enjoyed it as well (until she got hungry) :)



Ferris Bueler family friendly?    December 29, 2008
Family Friendly (Ohio)

Though the item came in perfect condition, I don't think this title is family friendly. Sure, it's a hilarious movie but foul language is continuously uttered throughout. The movie would be just as funny and entertaining without all the swearing and would be appropriate to a larger audience.
It's so frustrating when film makers/writers continuously show that they have no knowledge of the many thousands of words available for use in the English language, and limit themselves (and the viewer) to the same mundane use of the "famous 7".


Now THIS is the definitive `teen' movie of the eighties...    November 20, 2008

In 1985 (the year I was born people!) a certain movie was released that ultimately became a phenomenon. It has been labeled the movie of the 80's; the poster child for teen films everywhere. It is lauded by many and sparked a generation of look-alikes that are still being churned out even today. That movie is `The Breakfast Club'.

I hate that movie.

The following year the same writer/director behind the overrated slosh known as `The Breakfast Club' wrote and directed `Ferris Bueller's Day Off', yet another film that has been labeled a film of a decade. This time though, John Hughes hit it out of the park. There is no `corn' factor that was so prevalent in `The Breakfast Club'. Sure, there is dancing and obvious 80's flare, but this is a teen movie that can still hold up today alongside modern teen movies. I don't quite understand all of the reviewers stating that it won't appeal or relate to kids today, because to me it most certainly does, and I'm a 90's child when you think about it.

The film revolves around Ferris, a typical high school kid who just wants to have a good time. He fakes sick so that he can stay home from school. They he convinces his best friend Cameron (who is actually sick) to help him break his girlfriend Sloane out of school so that they can spend the day joyriding in Cameron's father's sports car.

The film is just a whole lot of fun.

More than mere fun though, `Ferris Bueller's Day Off' broaches some of the same object lessons promoted in `The Breakfast Club' (such as parental failings) with a little more subtlety and a lot more character. A scene where they mimic `The Graduate' is a splendid example of them tapping into the root message of the film without overdoing it.

The point being that this film is deep yet still manages to hold onto the fun.

Now, to be honest, I am not a fan of Matthew Broderick. I find him rather dull and boring. That said, he is Oscar worthy here. He gives what may be the definitive `teen' performance. He grapples the humor as well as the dramatic importance of his character and he possesses a flare and natural charisma that I never knew he ever possessed. As great as he is, Jennifer Grey is even better as his devilishly jealous sister Jeanie. Jeffrey Jones is quite good as the principle set out on disciplining Ferris and both Alan Ruck and the beautiful Mia Sara splendidly complement Broderick's every move.

In the end I highly recommend this film, for it is a little slice of cinematic heaven. It is funny, witty, charming and smart; all around creating a genuinely enjoyable and memorable movie experience. Not to mention the fact that the soundtrack is beyond awesome.


even young one's will love    August 14, 2008

i disagree with others who have said that this movie is only enjoyed by those who were "teenagers" in the 80's. i was born in the 80's and have LOVED Ferris's antics ever since i first saw them. i also know many of my younger friends who love this movie, and it is my boyfriend's FAVORITE movie. anyone who has wanted to skip school for a day of fun and adventure will enjoy this movie!!!


How I love the 80s!    August 1, 2008

This movie has always been one of my faves, and I was very happy to finally purchase it to watch whenever I'm in need of a good laugh! From the opening scene to the credits, this movie is extremely entertaining and full of craziness and witty humor!

:D

Save Ferris!
