Have always loved this movie

I have always loved this movie and wanted to add it to my collection of favs for a long time. I also love Mary Stuart Masterson. Very happy I got this movie. December 28, 2008

Love this movie

I love this movie because he finally realized his best friend has always been there through thick and thin.... And he doesn't need to have a lot of money to impress a girl.... I also like to collect a lot of 80's movies.... My mom bought me this movie for my birthday.... November 14, 2008

Surprised by "Some kind of Wonderful"

I chose to watch this movie because I am and always will be a Lea Thompson fan. However, this movie became one of my all time favorites for a very different reason. I purchased it because I found Mary Stuart Masterson's performance absolutely captivating. And, I probably would have hated the movie forever if she hadn't "gotten the guy." Her performance moved me in the deepest recesses of my heart!!!

Born in the wrong decade...

As a 17 year old high school senior, I often wish I would have grown up in the time my parents did, simply for all the awesome movies like Some Kind of Wonderful. For as long as I can remember I've been watching Pretty in Pink and Ferris Bueller's Day Off, as well as any other 80s teen movies I can get my hands on. For some reason, I had never seen Some Kind of Wonderful until recently when I went to Target and was in awe to see an 80s section of dvds. Some Kind of Wonderful is comparable to Pretty In Pink, and is an extremely good movie that teenagers, no matter what decade they were born in, whether it be the 60s or the 90s, can relate to.
