Premise
Matthew Broderick plays a slick high schooler who is determined to skip school for a day.
Thoughts
It's been a long time, so the details are fuzzy, but I recall having a blast watching this masterpiece. What stood out best was the charming, funny performances by the entire cast, from adorable Broderick, to jealous Jennifer Grey, to frustrated Jeffery Jones, to monotonous Ben Stein. Charlie Sheen's cameo was ridiculously awesome. I also enjoyed the music and comedy. Even with the unrealistic plot, this was still a quintessential 1980's (and John Hughes) flick.
What I would change
Nothing.
