Hughes' penetrating insight into the minds of 1980s kids makes this one of the best films to bear his name.

When Molly Ringwald and Annie Potts are onscreen together, the movie is aglow. See Pretty In Pink or, years from now, you may suffer side effects from missing it.

As irresistibly sweet as cotton candy.

Its deceptively soft title is a mask for a fairly powerful and pointed commentary on social standards, class differences and facades.

These kids have a bumpy ride, but this is one film that identifies with their passions instead of indulging them, giving us a perfect back-seat view of kids out cruising, not for kicks but for a hard-earned sense of pride.

Pretty in Pink is an engaging movie about youthful concerns that never go out of fashion.

Deutch has no discernible style; the scenes march ahead with only one development per scene, much like the worst in American television.

Unfortunately she gets straitjacketed in her current movie by a script that settles for black-and-white pronouncements instead of the delicate shades of gray that Ringwald employs.

It's way too hackneyed for John Hughes. He's already shown us that he knows better.

It belts along pleasingly enough, but this frenetic, hard-edged comedy drama is too hackneyed to be entirely successful.

Dated high school tale is still fun for teens.

First-Timer Howard Deutch is a nice surprise too. His precise, unexploitative direction is sympathetic to the awkward pauses in teen talk, to the mopery of first love, to the suicidal bravado of words spoken in heat.
