The Class

I read the reviews on line and decided to manage my expectations. I was pleasantly surprise as I watched the story unfold. I definitely got the sense of the 80s Breakfast Club. The filmmakers touched based on many different relevant topics. I alway love watching Anthony Michael Hall. By the time it was over I wanted to see some more. I would give it an 8 out of 10.

It is not often that you get something that give you thought provoking dialogue. The actors were great and would love to see more of them. Possibly a sequel could be in the works. Anyways if you have time it is worth it. I may go back and watch for a second time.

I wish more directors and producers were willing to talk about the topics that The Class dove right into. In today's day and age, there is a lot young people are going through, unfortunately. There is so much hate and chaos around them. But on the other side, there is also a lot of love and if you look for it, peace too. The Class teaches its viewers that. It is bringing people with different stories together to instead help one another overcome their problems.

I loved and thoroughly enjoyed watching the class! I would recommend anyone who cares about the younger generations to watch this movie to really think about what is going on today.

First thing you should take off of your mind before watching this movie is The Breakfast Club. I know, it's kind of inevitable, but the similarities are there because The Class is a homage of the classic from 1985, but it is it's own film. I really loved the diversity of the characters and how each one approaches different issues that are so relatable. I had a few issues with some lines and cuts on the movie though. The performances of Lyric Ross and Charlie Gillespie deserves to be praised, specially towards the end. I wasn't expecting to get emotional, but I certainly did! The music and photography are great on the movie too, and I love all the details that the production crew created for the school, it gave so much life to the environment. So, regardless of some poor choices made on the writing/editing, it's totally worth the watch.

So a bunch of 20-somethings once again play teenagers and they decide to rip off the Breakfast Club. Sure what could go wrong with such an inspired genesis.

This thing is execrable.

Cringeworthy acting - paper thin characters - two adult leads phoning it in. Oh wait a minute they are actually all adults just about three-quarters of them are playing kids.

And the sad part is - someone with a modest amount of sensitivity and talent could probably update the Breakfast Club - just not this ensemble

I have no idea who wrote it - green lit then decided to actually make it - but let me save you a wasted couple of hours - SKIP IT.

If you love Breakfast Club, and think that this might be a fun little re-telling.... Forget it. This thing is terrible. There are no redeeming qualities.

MAH - "phones it in." DG - hmmmm not so much Rest of the Class - bad high school drama club acting.

Save your money. This movie will not become a cult classic. Even as a bad movie cult classic like Plan 9...

If I was to quantify this movie, it is an attempt to steal money from fans of the Breakfast Club. So, with that said, I did see that The Breakfast Club is available to rent/purchase... absolutely do that instead. You can will thank yourself later.
