Better Off Dead vurderinger og anmeldelser
- Sabrina20. februar 2026Another one I somehow missed growing up, Better Off Dead does manage to give us maybe twenty minutes or so of that 80s magic about three quarters of the way into the movie, but the rest is pretty bad. The self harm plot as a joke did not age well, and the rest feels like it was written by a teenage boy. Even the humor is an insult to the low hanging fruit that is slapstick.
- marlon11165. januar 2026Very Funny.
- Spidey 2K17. desember 2025A classic 80's film that oozes fun.
- Wes Candela7. august 2025To me this movie is a classic. It’s fun. It’s before John Cusack started taking himself too seriously And it’s filled with scenes that people like myself and from generation X recite constantly If you were born after 1985, you just may not get this movie I don’t know, though maybe you will I love it classic classic classic everybody wants some
- Merlin13. desember 2025Brilliantly bonkers set comedy pieces but despite being a fave of mine in the 80s, it doesn't flow well. Nevertheless, it is still funny. Diane Franklin (every boy's crush in the 80s) is her sparkling self, whilst Cusack's lost, wise cracking teen and one liners, hold it all together...just. Everybody wants some! 🍔🍔🫶🏼🤘🏼
- mickerdoo21. november 2025Fun to see wacky comedy made before I was born. Cusack, Franklin, Okumoto and Armstrong elevate the goofy vibes. Gurger is nightmare fuel.
- Sean Myrick20. oktober 2025Nostalgic and hilarious! A hidden gem that I had never seen until 40 years after filming!
- Stewart Bladen5. mai 2025A great 80’s comedy. If you don’t get irrelevant humour then don’t watch this, otherwise you’ll have a blast.
- DoggesAndCattes22. desember 202480s weird camp
