    Once more Tom Cruise struggles with teen dilemmas and I find it almost impossible to give a shit.

    Pretty good flick. Tom Cruise shows why he is a good actor. He is a good actor, no matter how messed up he is when not in front of the camera.

    Tom Cruise plays a high school football player who is desperate for a college scholarship to escape his small Pennsylvania home town. It's a typical coming of age story brought to life by a full roster of very believeable characters. Cruise shows, even in this very early performa...( read more)nce, that he's one of the most solid, and dependable actors around. He's surrounded by a host of familiar character actors like Lea Thompson as his girlfriend, Craig T. Nelson as the coach, and the late Chris Penn as his best friend. The cinematography really drives home the small town feel. Filmed in a Pennsylvania steel town, almost every shot in the movie is overcast, and it almost always appears to be raining. Symbolic perhaps of the many struggles of the young characters. An ironic bit of history for the movie...although it was released in 1983, the same year as Risky Business, it was actually filmed BEFORE that film was made. It went unreleased by the studio, until Business made Cruise a superstar overnight. Then 20th Century Fox decided to try and make a profit of Cruise's sudden fame, and put the movie into theaters.
