Editorial Review: Description: Julie's cool, Randy's hot. She's from the Valley, he's like'so not! Nicolas Cage and Deborah Foreman star in this "sweet, fast, unpretentious [and] funny" (Los Angeles Times) romance that mixes preppies, punkers and a "hit-filled soundtrack" (The New York Times)including The Plimsouls and Modern Englishinto an iconic cult film that's "entertaining" (New York)'to the max! Julie is, like, so over her preppy boyfriend, she dumps him on the escalator at the Galleria. And when she meets punker Randy, her eyes practically bug out because she thinks he's sexy even though he makes her friends gag! But even if Randy's ready to stop the world and melt with her, can Julie risk her losing her friends and her super-popularity at school just to be with him? Amazon.com: Valley Girl is, like--Omigod!--one of the most "tubular" teen comedies of the early 1980s. This movie launched Nicolas Cage's career, and it's easy to see why: Following his tiny role in Fast Times at Ridgemont High, Cage is perfectly cast as a Hollywood punk who instantly falls for Julie (the irresistible Deborah Foreman), a San Fernando "Valley Girl"--a brighter variant of the stereotype immortalized in Moon Unit Zappa's 1982 novelty song--who must choose between wild-boy Nic and her preening jock boyfriend (Mark Bowen). Fortunately, Julie knows what's right for her (even if her "Val" friends don't), and in refreshing defiance of teen-flick tradition, her post-hippie parents (Frederic Forrest, Colleen Camp) are supportively cool. With sincere humor, a lively soundtrack of '80s hits, and a time-capsule cruise of Hollywood landmarks, Valley Girl is both timeless and nostalgic, owing much of its lasting appeal to Martha Coolidge's sensitive direction. Fer sure, y'know, it definitely won't gag you with a spoon. --Jeff Shannon Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Great filmArguable the best movie about high school. Comedy - Drama - Music. The complete packet Rating:  - Like totally awesome fer sureI remember the first time I watched this movie and thats the reason I bought it but now that I'm 37 it seems kind of cheesey but none the less is still a must see! Rating: - fast arrivalI received this item in just a few short days. Love Amazon, great service. Rating:  - One of my all time favorite 80s movieThis one takes me back to when I first saw it and definately to the 80's I love 80's movies and this is one of my 3 favorites. Rating: - Like awsome and sensitive film.Valley Girl is a must see for anyone whose ever been a teenager, the new guy in school, and felt the passions and pain of first love and rejection. We know that Julie and Randy have chosen to defy conformity and fall in love, it's so refreshing that they win out. I do miss Men at Work music on a key point in the film where the pair first meet and with the clever camera work, we know they have a strong attachment to each other. Cage and Foreman give their best early performances, so convincing I ... Read More Browse for similar items by category:
