Review of Stand by Me (1986) by Suzy V — 17 Dec 2011
"I never had any friends later on like the ones I had when I was twelve. Jesus ,Do anyone?" This story of four boys friends who go chasing after a dead body is One of the very best story of the 80's and an engaging and convincing movie about childhood and friendship.
With a good story and a smart screenplay stand by me gives an insight we rarely see in this kind of movies, without losing the very spirit of childhood.this way allows the movie to be very mature and to speak to the children and the adults alike.
It is fun touching smart meaningful and pleasant at the same time. Further the way the movie was realized allows the movie to age pretty well .The movie is still relevant today as it might have been 30 years ago .
In one word It s a great film and it could not be recommended more for those who remember our great childhood once was.
