Listen To Me

I only watched this for Amanda Peterson (after watching her great performance in Can't Buy Me Love) but turns out she wasn't in it much and her character was a pointless one at that.

However, I was very impressed with Jami Gertz's performance. I always thought she was rather dull in The Lost Boys and have never in the last 18 years or so ever come across anything else she has been in. OK, so I have seen Mischief and Sixteen Candles but I didn't notice her in either. It surprises me that she didn't become more successful after this film.

It's one of those small 'lost' 80's films that is quite enjoyable despite its flaws and sits well alongside the likes of Can't Buy Me Love, Secret Admirer and My Bodyguard.

score 6/10
