This is an essential '80s Pop Classic for the ages. I'll never stop loving this movie because of Molly Ringwald and Anthony Michael Hall. The brat pack years were the BEST of the best times to be young and discovering life. This film is a great snapshot of what it was like being a teen (in the '80s) from several different angles with great humor as well as with deft sentimentality. What sets this movie apart (along with other John Hughes films) is the believeable characters and the actors who portray them. And, always with excellent music aptly fitting every scene. The movie takes you on a really fun journey and leaves a sense of satisfaction. Plenty to see and hear and laugh about. (Must also see: Pretty in Pink, Weird Science, and The Breakfast Club.)

This movie was amazing. Movies these days are about fake situations where teens are rich or celebrities. Sixteen Candles along with about every other John Hughes movies are classics. Even the chinman is great for this movie. This is a very clever movie with many different characters fit into one round movie.

Well I enjoyed these Molly Ringwald/John Hughes films back in the 80's and was excited to share them with my daughter who is 12. She and her friends thought they were stupid ( she also saw Pretty in Pink) Oh well, I should learn that the movies I liked at her age just don't hold up to today's standards. What was the attraction of Molly Ringwald anyway?
