Stacy Hamilton and Mark Ratner are looking for a love interest, and are helped along by their older classmates, Linda Barrett and Mike Damone, respectively.

One thing I always ask myself when I'm finished watching Fast Times is why this movie is so well liked. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy this movie more than most early 80s comedies, but it's not exactly a timeless classic. Except for the one contribution to movie history that everyone remembers (Yes...THAT scene. Thank you Phoebe Cates), Fast Times has not much going for it these days. If you are looking for a trip through mastr...err...nostalgia lane, Fast Times might be a good way to spend an hour and a half, but there are more interesting choices out there.

Heckerling and Crowe construct a totally timeless and authentic window into high school life and the trials and tribulations adolescents go through. It shows the deeper problems teenagers face while also showing the lighter side of things through being fun as hell.

Maybe interesting if you're a teen or like 80s movies for just being 80s movies. Plot revolves around clips of a dumb stoner, sex and high school stereotypes knowing their place or being embarrassed. Nothing interesting happens and it's not funny. I imagine at the time of release it was significant.

Seen this one a few times over the years and still as fun as ever with a wonderful ensemble cast, a few of which have had a sustained career (others, like Phoebe Cates, Robert Romanus and Brian Backer, not so much). Has a good amount of heart mixed in with the comedy. Not sure where I place this amo More
