thiago s @Thiagostone Jan 19 Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom See more Craig W. @CJWolfe27 Jul 15 Decent movie worth a watch, one of Michael J Fox’s first movies and he is not the lead.

See more DanTheMan 2 @DanTheMan2150AD 09/25/2023 Raw, offensive, vulgar and violent, Class of 1984 is pure exploitation magic. Director Mark Lester films this for maximum cathartic impact, tapping into viewers' thirst for justice and revenge against these disreputable brats. As fun as it is shocking, with sparks of talent and wit while being crafted by people who cared to make it special. With a great cast of awful characters played by the likes of Perry King, Timothy Van Patten, Roddy McDowall and pre-fame Michael J. Fox, everyone relishes in their roles be they teacher, student or delinquent. Morally debased and completely reactionary, Class of 1984 is perfectly crafted to deliver its grimy dystopia like a punch to the throat. See more 08/21/2023 It’s the class of 1984 but not all bright and cheery More punk-themed and filled with spilling blood directed by Mark Lester and based on true events Is this really the future of our youth in the education system? Something strange is going on at the graffiti-covered Lincoln High, as teachers are carrying loaded guns, and the students have to walk through a metal detector before they enter the classroom The principal’s office even has surveillance cameras monitoring the students Before long, the school's new music teacher, Perry King as Andrew Norris, will learn firsthand that it's even worse than it looks, as the drug-plagued institution is the territory of the charismatic Peter Stegman and his brutal gang of crazed followers Co-starring with Norris is the late Roddy McDowell as Corrigan, he warns Norris to look the other way if he’s to survive Now, under those dire circumstances, it's only a matter of time before the professor and the pupil lock horns, with unforeseen consequences But, do drastic times call for drastic measures? In the end, is there a cure for violence? The film takes up a lot of time just to get to the juicy bits; much of the confrontations are between Norris and Stegman but they are really stretched out Yes it’s testing this teacher’s limits but the movie really needs to a bit more to chew on than prolonging this conflict I found this to be a very distressing and unpleasant watch See more justin t 02/02/2023 Considering this was an eighties exploitation film I was surprised to see that it is still relevant today. The problems in our schools haven't changed in twenty years. I found the political satire truly fascinating and the fear of a school run by a gang of drug dealers and not the authorities that should have been running it a genuine nightmare. The problem is that there are many unbelievable and questionable factors associated with the production. This is entertaining mostly because it shows that nothing changes (except special effects) in a stark way. Deserves a graphic disturbing remake. See more Read all reviews
