Review of Some Kind of Wonderful (1987) by Iceman — 11 Aug 2008

1 of the BEST movies EVER made! This truly is my 2nd favorite movie ever made & another 1 that I can watch over & over again. Amanda Jones was every girl in highschool that you knew who did what they did just to "fit in" & were followers that everyone thought were leaders but in the end she found HER TRUE SELF & discovered she was more like the kids she use to try so hard to not be associated with since she actually was one of the "middle class" kids posing as a rich kid & then you have Keith who was the typical guy that followed everyone else and went after the quote beauty according to the "popular eye" and was blind to the fact that he was really in love with his tomboy best friend Watts who was perfect for him and would teach him the life lesson he needed and that is to follow your heart, you already know what you want, you just have to open your mind & your heart to it, which leaves Watts, well, she was the girl everyone talked about bcuz she was different, truly unique, her own, she knew who she was already & didn't give a shit about what others really thought and so others teased her because people are people and tend to feel threatned by what they don't understand & will ridicule others to hide their own insecurities but Watts, with her confidence, was above all of that & remained true to herself and in the end she was the one with the last laugh & the one who landed on top! LUV IT, LUV IT, LUV IT! CLASSIC, CLASSIC, CLASSIC!
