Review of Don't You Forget About Me (2010) by Ashley T — 02 Apr 2010

John Hughes deserves a much better tribute than this poorly researched trash. While a few of the interviews with Hughes past collaborators and contemporary fans are interesting, none of them are terribly insightful about the man, and they all feel like B-roll footage thrown together with no real goal in mind.

The road trip footage is a complete waste of time. Getting lost on the way to Chicago and asking locals about Hughes current whereabouts might be comical if it weren't a bunch of clueless, spoiled, rich kids who hijacked their parents credit cards to fund the project.
