    One of my favorite films of all time. I practically have it memorized. Entertaining, and if you look deep, a bit enlightening as well.

    ingenious ways to get out of school.

    I must have seen this move a gazillion times, but I've never seen the last 5 minutes. i have some pretty good memories that include this movie. all in all, this is a must-see movie for people all over.

    Even though I wasn't yet born when this movie came out, I saw this movie a few years ago and I found it really good. I suddenly have this yearning to get a copy of it and watch it immediately.

    I love this movie ALOT, it is one of the best 80s movies, I still like The Breakfast Club the best but Ferris Bueller's Day Off is my 2nd favorite best movie from the 80's. I love all of this movie, from the very start to the very end. Great acting all through out this movie and I still love to watch it. I had a great best friend like Ferris had in Cameron, but my bestest friend in the whole world died when we were teenagers, BUT HE IS STILL AND ALWAYS WILL BE MY BEST FRIEND FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!

    This is one of the best teen flicks of the 80's. Alan Ruck stole the show as Cameron, as far as I'm concerned.
