St. Elmo's Fire Reviews
Film Freak Central
Walter Chaw
there's a perceptive, brilliant essay buried somewhere in St. Elmo's Fire on the dangers of deeply, tragically stupid people trying to write the great American novel.
Movie Metropolis
James Plath
Even teens might have a hard time identifying with the level of melodrama we get here.
Common Sense Media
Ellen Twadell
Soapy 20-something friends saga isn't for kids.
Filmcritic.com
Pete Croatto
Everyone struggles. Everyone triumphs. The music swells. No one cares.
Movie Mom
Nell Minow
An icon of the 80's.
New York Times
Janet Maslin
The film is edited so skittishly that the actors are barely able to complete their sentences, let alone their thoughts. That's probably just as well.
Variety
Variety Staff
St. Elmo's Fire is all about a group of recent college graduates in Washington who were always the best of friends but now are drifting apart as real life approaches, discovering various reasons why they are so individually obnoxious.
Washington Post
Paul Attanasio
These aren't characters -- they're character hooks.
Kalamazoo Gazette
James Sanford
the loud clothes, the pumped-up fake rock of John Parr, the questionable sex appeal of McCarthy and the unctuous Nelson. Turn it on and watch your skin crawl.
The Hollywood Reporter
Duane Byrge
There is an abundance of astute and knowledgeably drawn scenes with this contextually structured story. There are some biting observations of college life, with law school in particular taking some verbal jabs on the chin.
Los Angeles Times
Sheila Benson
All speed and stylishness without a bit of emotional resonance beneath.
Spirituality & Practice
Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat
A telling look at the confusions and challenges facing seven friends who have recently graduated from the same college.
TV Guide
This glib, insubstantial soap opera is emblematic of Hollywood in the mid-1980s.
