Still holds up. Decided to watch this in prep for the new chapter in the trilogy. I was happily surprised that the kids enjoyed it and stayed interested throughout. Be excellent to each other!

The history lessons here are a bit sketchy, but the story is fun ride from start to finish (and much smarter than it appears at first glance), the characters are hilarious, and it has the best 80s soundtrack I've heard in any film.

NOT SEEN THIS IS YEARS SO I WONDERED HOW IT WOULD HOLD UP TO A VIEW TODAY. YES VERY MUCH ENJOYED IT, A LITTLE SLOW AT THE START BUT WE GOT THERE IN THE END. GOOD LIGHT HEARTED FUN. HAD A GOOD TIME WITH THIS ONE STILL AND I WOULDN'T MIND SEEING THE SECOND AND 3rd INSTALLMENT. AND THE MESSAGE STILL STANDS TODAY. "BE EXCELLENT TO EACH OTHER" AND THAT MESSAGE IS DEFINITELY NOT "BOGUS"

This is one of the 80s movies that I somehow missed seeing growing up. I found it was admittedly pretty slow paced, but it's just such a fun little story and I can't argue with the message to "be excellent to each other." I'm a bit flabbergasted that I didn't recognize either Keanu Reeves or George Carlin.

Completely absurd, but *so* much more fun than it ever had any right to be. It's like the writers saw Back to the Future and thought, "it'd be fun to write a time travel movie about two high school friends who were as big of burnouts as we were at that age" and then totally ran with it. It's just so More

Any film thats starts with "Joan of Arc was not Noah's wife" has got to be worth a look! "Ted" (Keanu Reeves) and best mate "Bill" (Alex Winter) have the knowledge at school - who uses "audacious" even now? They are, however, completely unfocused and like any other teenage boys, distracted by just a More

Another one of those movies I first watched a few years after it came out, and just watched again this week. It is still very funny to me in many places during their adventure. Their reaction to stuff that happens is hilarious sometimes, and just the speech patterns they use is witty. Little things More
