Ferris Bueller's day off is the story of an extraordinary individual (Matthew Broderick) and what happens when he decides to take a day off from high school, bringing his straight laced hypercondriac best friend Cameron (Alan Ruck), and girlfriend Sloane (Mia Sara), Ferris convinces Cameron to take his father's Ferrari for a spin, and they all go off for an adventure into Chicago City, leaving a series of gadgets behind to keep up the pretence of him being at home ill in bed. This movie could be seen as the infinitive guide for "how to bunk off school - and get away with it" Inspiring and Brilliant! Ferris' elder sister Jeanie (Jennifer Grey) knows what Ferris gets up to and is determined to get final evidence and prove to their parents that he isnt the blue eyed child they believe.Jeanie thinks it's about time the tables were turned but things don't go well for Jeanie and she even ends up at the police station where a cameo role by Charlie Sheen proves to be hilarious. The principle (Jeffrey Jones) has had enough of Ferris getting away with 'skipping school' and so decides to prove he is faking and thus get his expelled. Close encounters and a lot of childish fun including a fabulous parade scene, provide an entertaining film that the whole family can enjoy from start to finish. It's the sort of stunt you really wish you could have pulled off!Read full review
School is rubbish. I know it, you know it, and Ferris Bueller knows it. Which is why he's decided to fake out his folks with a pretend dose of sniffles, round-up his girlfriend and best bud, and get down to some serious truanting in the Chicago sun. In the iconic role he'll never be able to entirely escape from (a bit like Henry Winkler with The Fonz), Matthew Broderick is the tricky teenager who's willing to go to extraordinary lengths to get out of spending the day cooped up in a stuffy classroom. 'How could I possibly be expected to handle school on a day like this?' he asks, in one of several chinwags directed straight at the camera. He's got a point: the summer sun's out in full force, there's a parade in town, and best pal Cameron (Alan Ruck) has grudging access to his dad's shiny red Ferrari. Nice one. Back at school, Ferris has the unconditional support of classmates a-plenty, but the populat skiver has two natural enemies. One is sister Jeanie (Jennifer Grey), his highly-strung disapproving sister. The other is Edward Rooney (Jeffrey Jones), the scene-stealing Dean of Students on a one-man mission to track down the absconding toerag and teach him a lesson once and for all. Director John Hughes put himself firmly on the map as the King of the Teen Comedy with this one, long before the genre turned into the increasingly-tedious string of gross-out gags we have to put up with today. In fact, the '15' certificate handed to this one seems a little harsh by today's standards, given that there's very little swearing, no nudity and only one extremely mild – and comical – moment of violence. And that's of Mr Rooney getting kicked in the head, so doesn't really count.Read full review
