St. Elmo's Fire

Good movie

Classic 80’s movie. Solid story, and a good watch all-around.

I always wanted to be part of a large group of friends that were inseparable in college that continued on through the rest of life, but after watching this, I’m glad that didn’t happen! Man, all of these characters lives are a complete mess! A very skippable film in my opinion.

I thought rewatching so many years later that I would love it as much as I remembered. Some of the scenes are ingrained in my brain as iconic; the scene in Jules apartment with all the windows open & a mattress on the floor, case in point.

With that said, it definitely didn’t hold up the way I thought it would. The misogyny, grooming & stalking. Oooof….

great cast but I was mad confused what was happening. And why was everyone kissing each other??

7/10
