    I lived through the 80s. And trust me, this movie is freakin' 80s!

    So if you're 14 or whatever and want to know what the 80s was like, watch this movie. Everything--and I mean EVERYTHING, is spot on. The costumes are amazing. The production design in amazing. The colors of those opening titles--woah! And the best thing? The music! The person that picked the songs really earned their paycheck, because the selections are really authentic to that 80s club culture. These aren't the same, worn out and cliché 80s songs you always hear when the 80s is involved but proper, underground stuff typically only played in clubs and in radio stations in Miami, New York and LA.

    And you know what? The story is actually really fun! It takes place over the course of one night, which I really like (think After Hours by Scorsese). The character arcs are fun to witness, and the acting is enjoyable to watch (although don't expect ultra-realism).

    Oh, and I am in lust with 80s Daphne Zuniga. Man. When my time machine is complete, she had better watch out.

    a cute '80s movie

    This is a story about three single girls(Cynthia Gibb of "Jack's Back", Virginia Madsen and Daphne Zuniga of "Melrose Place") looking for a good time. Somehow a geek(Clayton Ruhner of "Just One Of The Guys") gets thrown into their night and things start to fall apart. It's a good movie about friendship and acceptance. I don't think it anywhere near a classic, but good fun just the same. It's always nice to see these actors when they were young and starting out. Also looking back at the '80s and seeing all the big hair, wild clothes, and the music.

    If you are looking for a fun film, look no futher than this one. Another fun film is "Just One Of The Guys". One of my favorites!

    another night, another club.

    Cute fun movie about a night out in the life of several clubkids. I saw this a long time ago but liked it. I would actually like to see it again if I could only find it.

    There is nothing remarkable here, just a good fun movie. a bunch of girls are going out on the town and all the things that go wrong(and right). It captures the time period and "night out at the club" feeling beautifully, and the cast is pretty good. Look for Daphne Zunniga of Melrose fame, she has a major role and is quite good, quite an underated actress. The movie's target audience is clealy clubkids but since I used to be one as was the guy I watched this with, I had no problems with that. It makes for many laughs, some pretty funny situations and an entertaining overall view. My vote is 7. 5 out of 10.

    trying to be a fun night out

    Cece (Cynthia Gibb), Kelly (Virginia Madsen), and Margo (Daphne Zuniga) are poor struggling single gal roommates in L. A. Cece gets fired. Kelly has a date with forgettable nerd Clifford (Clayton Rohner) but she left with the car. The other two girls wanna have fun and gets him to drive them to the club. He's happens to be a doppelganger for music superstar Bruno X.

    The fake L. A. nightlife is a little stupid. A comedian playing Clifford could have turned this into a funny adventure. Drop Everything is a funny bit. The movie needs to stay with that tone and needs some better comedic skills to pull it off. Clayton is not a funny actor. I love all three actress individually but non of them are doing anything special here. This doesn't have enough fun for this to be enjoyable although it tries. It tries to be a fun night out.

    EXCELLENT

    This was a great film, funny, It follows a typical friday night for 3 room mates, except this friday night everything that can go wrong for them goes wrong for them, its very good, they are all immature in their own way but they are funny!!

    • Trivia
      Released just after Thanksgiving, the film had a dismal run at the box office and barely made over $250,000 dollars. However, it found a second life as a late-night staple on HBO, which was in the process of becoming a force in home cable. The movie was shown in such heavy rotation that watching it on HBO became a rite-of-passage for many adolescents in the late 1980s, leading to it developing a cult following.
    • Goofs
      When Clifford arrives at the girls' apartment, he leaves the car's lights on after parking. However, when Margot looks out the window to check out the car, its lights are off.
    • Quotes

      CeCe: We're all great girls. Kelly might be prettier, but Margo, tell him which one of us is sexier.

      Margo: You're ten points sexier. I'm... what?

      CeCe: No, six points sexier and she's ten points bitchier.

      Cliffy: Are you sure it was only ten points?
