The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

Okay, this movie was made for network television so it's quite censored for the audience anyway. This movie was made as a prom movie starring television child stars like Alyssa Milano as the cool, popular girl who ends up in a movie theater on her prom night. Tracey Gold plays the unpopular girl who gets asked out by the popular boy for prom night. Her parents are played by Kelsey Grammar and Edie McClurg. Back in the day, it was quite normal for network stars to work on television movies like this. Christina Applegate and Matthew Perry play a young couple who push too hard. Her parents are played by Mary Frann. Alan Thicke plays the father of a nerd boy who would rather be watching the stars. He manages to get together with Milano's character. While it was a sweet film, I wished that it was shown more or available. They don't make television movies or comedic movies like they used too.

This movie is the best teen movie ever made. The first time i watched it i was a kid. I used to watch it all the time Back then it became my favorite movie. I couldn't get enough of Kevin McCrea, but today I've noticed it wasn't only the beautiful actors that made the movie. The movies of today cannot even be compared to Dance til Dawn Dance till Dawn was a classic, even though it was modern. And it still is today. It's a movie u can sit down and enjoy without any obscene language.It has its comedy, as well as romance. It's a great movie, and the whole family will enjoy it.

The movie itself isn't very special, it is a typical teenage comedy where a nerd become very popular, and all the "bitches" are punished... But i think that a growing teenager needs this kind of fairytales. Angela represents a dream, we all wished to come trough.. its very optimistic, with a positive ending. All persons in the movie accept new ideas, thoughts, they realize what they want, need, and who their real friends are. Now i know that this is just a movie and that things like that don't happen, but still i like to watch it over and over, because it is funny, optimistic, and it helps you, when you're down for some guy,or....My advice: this movie, popcorn, lot of friends, and you'll have FUN!

I saw this cheeseball as the Late Movie the other day. Like most things of the 80's, its fake, superficial, and predictable, but that's what makes its laughable. Still love those deep-throat be-bops and dodoots and "ohhhh. yeahhh"'s
