Sixteen Candles - Flashback Edition [DVD]

Classic Movie definitely will take you back to 1984 The humor is Awesome gotta watch if you want forget the cares of the world and just laugh 😂

This is a great movie and it's one actually Molly Ringwalds best movie. I really love the movie and I remember being surprised to find John Cusack in a short role along with his sister Joan. She was a little more obvious. I had to look for John even though I'd seen him in Say Anything and Better Off Dead. I finally found him playing one of Anthony Michael Halls friends the geek who was in love with Molly Ringwald. Anyway as I'm pretty sure I've said this is great movie. You should get it.

My favorite Molly Ringwald movie!!! This movie takes me back to the 80's!!! Y'all get ya one!

Great

Excellent film, in every way. You will fall in love with The characters. Ignore reviews that say this movie is tasteless or harmful. It’s an exaggeration and it’s just another effort to censor speech and art. The Arrow video blu ray has a booklet containing a long article about these 80s John Hughes movies being insensitive, but noting that they’re just good enough to still exist. Because they “start conversations” about important topics. So does this mean that if they weren’t good, they would be scrubbed from hIstory? I was in high school in the 2000s - way after these movies were made, and we spoke and behaved in much the same way that the kids in these movies speak and behave. The problem may not be that these kids in the movie were ignorant or mean spirited or evil. The problem may be that people in the age of twitter are censored, repressed, shamed and instructed to think in terms of identity rather than individuality. I thought a persons background or identity is not their defining characteristic. It’s a side note. Something that can be made fun of. It’s not a point of pride, to be born a certain way. Pride is reserved for accomplishments. That being said, the Asian American kid in sixteen candles was lovable, fun and well-liked by his peers, but the fact that the movie played a gong during his scenes removes all that makes him great or somehow lessens his worth? Absolutely not, it’s poking fun! There is a greater understanding that this movie covers. We are all worthy of being lovingly made fun of for a multitude of reasons. It’s important to laugh at ourselves and each other. Whether that be because of aspects of our character or inalienable traits. Its the intent behind the joke that matters. Did the joke intend to hurt people? Or was it all in fun? Getting teased is part of growing up and becoming an adult in a harsh world. And the movie does NOT glorify sexual deviancy, it acknowledges that some young people don’t understand the gravity and seriousness of this behavior. To show that something exists does not glorify it. In 2021 an acceptable movie is something like “midsommar” a grotesque, disgusting, inhumane film that features torture and gore beyond belief. But making a joke about someone is what should be censored and shamed? It’s kind of strange honestly. There aren’t countless damaging and inflammatory opinions in the review section of all the filth that is currently available to watch on streaming services like there is for this movie. Why is human suffering enjoyable, while lighthearted teen antics are unwatchable? I hope this isn’t the permanent direction we are headed. Because graphic images of violence over long periods of time wear down a persons ability to experience empathy, and are much more damaging to the soul than inappropriate jokes. I hope that most people still realize this.

Absolutely love this and the price

Of all of John Hughes' movies, Sixteen Candles, is one of the films that is still entertaining. Hughes had this ability to create films as if teenagers were the ones who actually wrote the script. The only movie in his repertoire that I feel is still relatable is The Breakfast Club. However, this film, Sixteen Candles, did not age well, but it is meant to be a fun watch, but you need to at least know some of the '80s humor and slang to understand the film's references. I get it because I am the '80s to '90s child and some of the words, phrases, and a few of the more ethnically insensitive depictions were funny then, but they're certainly not now. Sixteen Candles is one of those 1980s films that is a gem and one where you can watch it for just pure entertainment and laugh at the ridiculous humor from back in the day! This film has been upgraded to blu-ray with a terrific, solid transfer from a 4K scan of the original negative. The audio is solid, and this release is packed with some great bonus features that Arrow has included that is not included in the standard blu-ray release thanks to Arrow Films.

Good movie to buy

La película llegó a tiempo y en buen estado. La película es un clásico que todo amante de los 80's debe ver, del mismo director de The Breakfast club, nos sumerge en lo difícil de la adolescencia, con la actriz de culto Molly.
