The whole film is but especially the opening scene at the mall. The early 80s looked like a lot better time to be in high school than the late 80s were.

I don't know, man, high school in the late eighties was pretty awesome. There are some movies that make me nostalgic for a time that I wasn't even alive. Inherent Vice and Once Upon A Time In Hollywood make me want to have experienced that time period in southern California. I would also like to see a movie that captures the mid to late eighties accurately, but none of them do. The movie Rockstar, maybe.

The late 80s were a blast. But the music in the early 80s is probably my favorite era and it seems like it would have been fun to be in high school when arcades were at their peak.

We had an arcade/pool room on the strip that everyone used to cruise on. But people mostly just hung out in the parking lot by then.

Same here on movies making you want to live in an era before your time. Being a teen/young adult in Los Angeles in the late 60s/early 70s seems like it would have been amazing.
