Another movie that touched me in some way back when it was released. I remember seeing it on HBO back in 1987 when it was released and I never saw it again until August of 2005 on Cable and I recorded it on my DVR. The bottom line is that this movie had tremendous impact on a young kid watching it compared to an adult. As a kid going through puberty and being in 5th or 6th grade at the time, I totally could relate to a situation like that occurring because when your young and still growing there's always a bigger fish out there looking to cause problems. Any kid in the 1987 who was in school def would have thought the movie was definitely cool. In today's world the movie is completely dated but you have to put things in perspective and realize that back in 1987 this movie rocked and was definitely cool to watch.

For A Movie To Consistently bring shear enjoyment and happiness every time you watch it and I mean Every time you watch it, you know there's something special about it. I'm 29 years as I write this and I was 12 years old when this came out. I was enjoying 6th grade summer down at the good old Jersey shore. The movie exemplified the late 80's "feel good" personality. As for the movie, the chemistry between Andrew McCarthy And Jonathan Silverman was just amazing and magical to say the least. Andrew McCarthy reminded me of myself and Jonathan Silverman reminded me of my best friend. The movie just makes me feel good every time I watch it and yes I own the DVD. Rock On Bernie and let's hear it for the 1980's and especially 1989 baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Tommy New Jersey

Point blank this movie flashed me back to 3rd grade spring time or 4th grade fall of 1985. Vividly I remember sleeping over my friends house and telling him about this movie Fortress that I had just seen and he was eager to see it after I went on and on about it. Something was magical that night because about an hour later he turned on HBO and the movie was just starting. I remember we watched it and we both loved it. All through the years growing up it was our little inside laugh.....we would talk about Father Christmas......haha. I thought about the movie frequently growing up but never ever ever saw it again on TV or any channels such as HBO or Cinemax or Showtime. About two weeks ago while looking through my Comcast cable at 3 in the morning I came across Fortress coming on the next day on HBO and I set my DVR to record it and just watched it last night. I felt like a kid again.....and I couldn't believe how my memory flashed back and I knew pretty much everything that was coming up before it happened. I'm 29 years old and haven't seen that movie in 21 years. Wow!!!!!!!! Still Fantastic as it was when I was a child.......... Hope I didn't bore you to death.....maybe some others can relate to my little story and feel the same way about this movie.
