WORTH CONSUMING!

A great 80’s comedy! Great memorable characters, lines, and songs. I dunno how else to describe this but cool.

WORTH CONSUMING!

Interesting, watching this as an adult, to realise that most of Ferris’ adventures (the notable exception being the carnival float) really aren’t particularly extraordinary. They’re just grown-up ways to pass the time: fine dining, visiting an art gallery and a baseball game, borrowing a fancy car for the day. But they seemed impossibly sophisticated when I was a kid. As did Ferris, but he still does. Sorta.

Also interesting how dated many of the film’s props and gags seem, even though it was only made twenty years ago. Computers, trainers/sneakers, women with short hair, call forwarding, audio sampling, French cuisine, flashing cash – they’re not embarrassingly clumsy plot devices as they are in other films from that time, but they do add subliminally to the air of “cool”. What do teens today think of this movie, I wonder?

Oh, and I now that I’m an adult, I no longer envy Ferris very much. Except that I wish I could get my hair to form a Mohican in the shower.

WORTH CONSUMING!

If only we could all take a day off like Ferris! I loved watching the crazy and dare I say, zany, antics of Ferris and friends as they ditch high school and have a day of non-stop fun. Well, almost non-stop. It’s a funny movie, with cute scenes and an easily understandable plot, with the good guys and the bad guy (the principal as the main adult authority figure).
