This theme music sounds familiar. Joel Schumacher directed this movie. I liked two of his other films, Lost Boys, and A Time to Kill. In this flick, Rob Lowe gets arrested for drunk driving. Emilio flirts with Andie McDowell. Rob Lowe plays the saxophone in this movie. Judd Nelson, who voiced Rodimus Prime in the Transformer movie, puts Lowe's head in a toilet. McCarthy does a funny cover of Respect, by Aretha Franklin. The music sounds like a theme song for a soap opera. Judd Nelson is going to get married, except he also likes a chick who does coke with a bunch of MTV-watching Arabs. The structure is like a less-complicated Magnolia with elevator music. [E.N. - and no frogs. sadly.] I took a brief nap in this one. [E.N. - by brief, he means about half the length of the movie.] I'm not sure about the title though - St. Elmo's Fire? Is that the name of the hospital or the city? Judd Nelson gets very pissed at Ally Sheedy, whose name was described by MAD Magazine as sounding more like an Arabian curse than an actress's name. Demi Moore has wacky hair.

I give St. Elmo's Fire 2.5 out of 4 stars.

I hope this movie is good. Unfortunately, it was directed by Joel Schumacher. However, it does have many Brat Pack members. Emilio is in love. Damn Andrew McCarthy doesn't understand. Emilio's name is "Kirby" hehe. This movie is cool so far. I don't like Mare Winningham. Emilio + McCarthy are cool. This movie is about successful romantic relationships.

Conclusion: This movie was good - enthralling (hence lack of review), liked it a lot.

Rating: 5 MRU's out of 5

I haven't seen this movie yet. Demi Moore has really bad hair. Judd Nelson just gave Rob Lowe a swirly. No explanation given, none needed. Andrew McCarthy never made a pass at Demi Moore, so she assumes that he's gay. Poor Judd, he accidently had sex with an attractive lady. That prostitute makes a damn good point. Demi Moore is such a slut. Mare Winningham sucks. Rob Lowe rocks. Andrew McCarthy is a freaking moron. He's trying to make a move on Judd Nelson's woman.


You do NOT want Judd
to make this face at you.

Conclusion: Caffiene is good. I like Jolt

4.5 out of 5 Quality Points.
8 out of 10 Brat Pack Points.

Mat: "I have not been asleep.
I just closed my eyes for a little bit."
Zack: "Ok, then what's been happening?"
Mat: "Uh...there's some couples with problems....."
Zack: "You've been asleep."

The people in this movie exhibit a strange lack of common sense. It's pretty cool when Rob Lowe is caught with that guy's wife. Dis movie be good. Naomi = cool, She makes good points. Rob Lowe is cool, especially when he tells his wife to get her kids neutered before they shack up with "fucking sluts". I think Mare Winningham is decent in St. Elmo's Fire. Her problem is she's beautiful but looks thirty-five or forty. Demi Moore needs to be nude in this movie. COME ON, why didn't the producers of St. Elmo's Fire use the proven successful formula of "About Last Night...."? Which is, naked Demi Moore. No Emilioness.

Conclusion: 5

"I love the woman you love, so don't kill me."- McCarthy

Mare Winningham's character is unloved, unappreciated and uncared for. Just like in real life. Methinks there's nepotism afoot.
