The breakfast club by Elijah Mendez

The "breakfast club" written and directed by John Hughes was a reality comedy movie about a group of teenagers attending Saturday school (detention). I liked this film because I feel like it introduced the many different stereotypes of kids in high school through the different students in detention. For example John bender is known in school as the "bad kid" he misbehaves in school and doesn't listen to any authority. When he opens up to the other kids in detention and tells them his story you can see and understand why John acts the way he does. Another example in the movie of this was Andrew. Andrew is the school jock, his dad pushes him too far and forces him to wrestle. It's almost as if this dad is living vicariously off his sons achievements. When all the kids open up to each other Andrew explains how he feels about his father. He hates that his dad pushes him so hard with wrestling and feels like his dad only cares about his wresting career not him. When all the kids shared their problems with each other all of them started to understand that no matter what someone's situation is everyone has their own problems and no one has a perfect life (as much as you want to). This is why I enjoyed watching the breakfast club and why i related to the film.
