I LOVE this as a classic 80s movie. The plot is great, and I mean, who doesn't love a good chick-flick?

Good comedy and coming-of-age story, although it feels like some scenes aged slightly.

Gençliğin sorunlarını ve gündelik yaşamlarını anlatmakta oldukça usta bir isim olan John Hughes, bu ilk yönetmenlik deneyiminde 16 yaşına basmış olan Samantha karakterinin gözünden aşk, arkadaşık ve aile üzerine oldukça naif ve eğlenceli bir film yapmayı başarmış. Yönetmenin sonradan daha sağlam filmler yapmasına ön ayak olmuş bir anlamada onun sinemasal tarzının temelini oluşturan oldukça iyi bir film.

Though socially it doesn't age well, Sixteen Candles is still a fun flick that showcases John Hughes's unique ability to write and direct films about teenagers that feel real.

This film really bothered me, I'll admit. Starting with how the love interest treats his gorldriend. We are kind of told she isn't a particularly nice person in their scene at the prom but he does more than a couple of shorty things.as the film goes on. I kind of don't get the film is criticizing his behavior either. Most of the guys are off putting except for maybe the father. Don't even get me started on how the Asian dude is handled.

It paints itself as a feminist, ahead-of-the-times film with a good message, but it's not really any of those things. Full of stereotypes, unfunny gags, an oversized and underdeveloped cast of characters, and a protagonist that disappears for chunks of the film at a time, it's laced with issues- including an awful Asian stereotype and the implication that taking advantage of a drunk woman is both funny & hip- and has few positives (apart from great work by Hall & Ringwald) to make up for them.

It works despite lack of chemistry between him and her, some cheesy moments and forced character actions just to make it to the final shot (which is satisfying, but not that iconic). The casting is great and the music is 80s classics.
