One Crazy Summer

I’d say One Crazy Summer is a typical 80s summer comedy except it isn’t full of nudity and misogyny, so “typical” doesn’t quite fit. How about lukewarm? Nothing happens outside of expected story beats. Despite the title, nothing crazy happens. John Cusack is a dweeb. John Cusack gets the girl (Demi Moore). Ok, there is ONE thing, but you don’t need to watch the movie for it. Just search YouTube for “Bobcat Goldthwait Godzilla.”

Is this another wacky 80s coming of age comedy that manages to be watchable because of the cast and the fun jokes? Sure. They don't make this kind of movie anymore.

rewatch. every character in this movie is my favorite character.

A bit of fun with some good tunes on the soundtrack but ultimately forgettable

Some underdogs need to defeat an evil property developer's son. Cusack tries hard not to get laid. Bobcat yells a lot.

WHATSAMATTA

not my cup of tea this savage steve guy style luuuh me some young demi tho

Prototypical 80's underdog comedy. Better than it looks on paper thanks to the cartoony presentation and a great cast. Demi Moore was boring as hell though.

Semi-embarassing film with some bizarre humor. Aside from the random wackiness it's pretty standard.

One long dull boring/annoying summer.

Not too original, as this reminded me a lot of 80's movies that had to deal with bullies while facing insurmountable odds to win and get the girl. But what makes this comedy different was that there were some very strange moments and characters as well. These weren't cookie cutter characters that a lot of these movies had. The cast was great. I will always remember Bobcat Goldthwait's performance, but just about everyone else in this was pretty good as well. Kind of a different movie.

Been awhile

This movie sucks. I like a lot of Cusack 80's movies but this one is embarrassing to watch.

The mid 80s gave us all sorts of these quirky romantic comedies starring John Cusack. I'm not really sure why, because none of them were any good.

A summertime classic for me back in high school...

Wacky, appealing, funny and original.

not very funny, but kinda likeable

Yeah, I probably ranked this one too highly, but I just love this movie.
