Ferris Bullers Day Off

Paddy Samurai

Just watched this film with my son.Years since I saw it,and it has really dated well for a film that is over 20 years old.Forgot how much fun it was.Jeffery Jones as the principal is great!!.

PetKing

Rooney! As a matter of fact, Id like to see you out front too!! I'd like to have a few words with you by God!!

cracking film. one of the all time greats imo. love watching it at 1pm on a saturday with a hangover.

Buller? Bueller? Bueller? Bueller?

Classic:)

I'm not a John Hughes fan, but Ferris Bueller is one of the most charismatic and enjoyable teen movies ever made. It is just pure fun. The phonecall with the principal is easily one of the funniest moments I've ever seen. It is also a rare example of Matthew Broderick perfectly suited to his role - a good comedy actor, but boy he chooses some awful roles.

An absolute top 10.

This is one I watch on DVD from time to time. A great film that stands up to my memories of watching it as a kid.

Hero of the film. It is a fine film from start to finish. Anyone, anyone?

Mr.Lizard

A classic.

Great movie but kind of tainted by the fact that Jeffrey Jones is a dirty big paedo.

Brilliant film, I absolutely love it. My goody-two-shoes missus doesn't like it and never did because quote "he's a cheeky brat who gets away with it":D

yeah, he is the Tim Allen / Cathal O'Searchaigh of cinema.

Snake Plisken

Great movie, great soundtrack, aged very well, I remember going to the cinema and being blown away by it!
Anyway here's the Ferrari Scenes with my fav the scene from under the Ferrari when it lifts off with the Star Wars Theme playing in the background "What Country Do you think this is?"

I watched it again recently (own the 'Bueller... Bueller DVD').. and think it's stood up against the test of time particularly well!

The fashion is very 80's but the humour is still hilarious!

Am I the only person who thinks that this movie is a little..Overated?

Ok a lot of Dross his been in, but movies like Glory, Electon and The Cable Guy spring to mind, but they were all over a decade back!

Election was a far better than movie than Ferris Buller. But godamn I still love Buller

Lobelia Overhill

and about 1000 other films and TV shows!

I watched this movie a million times as a kid, my family still go on about it today, I bought the video with my pocket money and watched it everyday after school until the tape snapped!!!!!!
Great movie!!!

Richard Dower

Wonderful film, John Hughes is a true legend. Adored Uncle Buck.

lostexpectation

and he got engaged to his sister euuugh

TheIrishGrover

I love the secretary in it. Hilarious"

Oh, he's very popular Ed. The sportos, the motorheads, geeks, sluts, bloods, waistoids, dweebies, dickheads - they all adore him. They think he's a righteous dude.

And the way she looses that pencil in her hair as Rooney's on the phone (I think it's when Cameron phones as Ferris' dad but I could be wrong.)


Waistoids..... Must remember that

poisonated

I was told that there was supposed to be a sequal...still waiting though:mad:

... let my Cameron goooooo.

Infinitely quotable film .... "Cameron is so tight that if you stuck a lump of coal up his ass, in two weeks you'd have a diamond"

Nice cameo from Charlie Sheen too ... "Drugs?" ... "Thank you, no. I'm straight"
