The Breakfast Club revolves around a group of high school students on a Saturday detention. There are five students, and the school classifies them as: a brain, a princess, an athlete, a basket case, and a criminal. Although none of the kids really know each other or have much in common, they soon find themselves bonding over a common enemy in a power-hungry principal, who's in charge of the detention. Throughout the long detention, the strange group of misfits tell his or her own story, forcing the others to see them in a new light. By the end, they realize that they all aren't so different and wonder whether or not their school will ever be the same again. 

 The plot of the movie is superb and showcases how high schoolers actually act and feel, not to mention how they are divided by terms like athlete or brains. The movie is scary realistic, and it's hard not to imagine actual high schoolers acting in similar ways. The Breakfast Club elucidates real themes that are applicable to actual high schoolers, which is not an easy task. 

The dialogue in the movie is incredibly creative, original and helps to shape one of the greatest movies of all time, as well as gifting the movie some iconic scenes and brilliant one-liners. The ending of the movie is awesome and captures the essence of what The Breakfast Club tried to accomplish. The beginning of the movie and the ending of the movie are essentially the same, which is one of the greatest ways to tell a beautiful story. Rotten Tomatoes gave this movie an 88%, but that feels way too low, considering how powerful this movie is and how nearly perfect it is. In the simplest terms, this movie is a fantastically wonderful must see that is absolutely worth the time to go ahead and watch.
