It's not my favorite...but as for capturing the decade the best...the clothes, the attitude, the pop-culture...

It's Weird Science.

It captured the early 80's perfectly. I was 14 when it came out and can relate to the music and spirit of the times. Great movie. Breakfast Club captured the mid-80's to a T.

Weird Science. The addition of the elements of 80's fantasy (the Ferrari and Porsche) and the mall scene really top it off. Agree, not the best movie, but captures it the best.

Agree.
