Editorial Review: Product Description: A group of friends fresh out of college find their self centered and obnoxious values stand in their way of coping with adulthood. Studio: Sony Pictures Home Ent Release Date: 12/21/2004 Starring: Emilio Estevez Andrew Mccarthy Run time: 110 minutes Rating: R Amazon.com: A collective vanity piece for the so-called Brat Pack of the 1980s, this coming-of-age movie--written and directed by Joel Schumacher (A Time to Kill)--is a largely unbelievable ensemble piece about college grads having trouble getting a lift-off into adulthood. As in John Hughes's Breakfast Club--which has a lot of casting overlap with this film--each actor plays a rather narrow type with problems common to his or her classification. Some (as with Rob Lowe's seemingly doomstruck character) are more absurd than others. But absurdity isn't the issue in this movie; a general sense of indulgence is. Schumacher not only presumes an undeserved mystique about this cast, but he also exploits it and comes up empty. --Tom Keogh Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Unrealistic view of up and coming yuppies, but the cast isgood looking, of course this was 22 years ago and Demi still looks good. But then again she should, billionaries should also look good no matter what and if they don't somethings wrong. Movie was ok, boy do I miss the 80's. More relaxed, no computers, the fun wasen't drained out of everything. Well, most of the actors went on to bigger and better movies and salaries. Its harmless, enjoy. Rating: - Gotta have itNo 80's movie collection would be complete w/o this one. Who can resist old school Demi Moore, Andrew McCarthy & Judd Nelson??? The tumultuous lives of young adults in the 80's ... few things beat it. Rating: - It's Not All That Bad!I can't argue with the negative reviews, but I am somehow strangely drawn to this movie. Perhaps it is because I was in my late 20s when the movie was originally released, and I hung out with a group of friends who were somewhat similar to the characters in St. Elmo's Fire. We even hung out in a bar (Z's Sports Tap in Chicago, since torn down and replaced by a highrise building) where we were regulars. I like to think we weren't as shallow and useless as the characters in this film, but we were all ...

Watched just after I bought it and made me feeling 10 years younger. Just go ahead and buy it. Rating:  - Good for 80's nostalgia---but not much elseSt. Elmo's Fire is a coming-of-age movie that will have a certain nostalgic appeal to anyone who was a teenager or a 20-something in the mid-1980s. It will be of limited interest to anyone else, unless you are excessively interested in the pop culture of that era. The main characters of St. Elmo's Fire are seven recent college graduates who are beginning their professional lives. As other reviewers have noted, these people aren't credible as an ensemble of friends---nor are they particularly ... Read More |
