This musical remake of 80s classic Valley Girl is an absolute blast. Set in the 80s mostly a concerned mother (Alicia Silverstone) consoles her daughter by telling her about her youth in the 80s. The awesome Jessica Rothe (Happy Death Day)This musical remake of 80s classic Valley Girl is an absolute blast. Set in the 80s mostly a concerned mother (Alicia Silverstone) consoles her daughter by telling her about her youth in the 80s. The awesome Jessica Rothe (Happy Death Day) stars as her teen version. She hangs at the mall, beach, etc. With her friends as sporadic, lively musical numbers made if 80s hits rock the screen. Eventually she meets up with a hottie, Randy. He lives in L.A., is a punk singer and helps her to Express herself creatively. They have good chemistry and the film is just plain fun. Although some of the singing isn't top notch it's a entertaining flick that doesn't take itself seriously and neither should you.

This is one of those uncomplicated viewer decisions, so it'll be an uncomplicated review.
Do you love the Nicolas Cage 1983 film Valley Girl? Then you will hate this unfaithful abomination that completely misinterprets everything that made the original film a classic.
Do you like teen musical romantic comedies, 80s kitsch, bright, over-saturated neon colors and 80s music? You will like this movie.
On the bright side, we dodged a bullet not having to listen to Nick Cage sing.

1980s! Smart references, great use of '80s music to push the story and forward. The early beach scenes look a little too much like "From Justin to Kelly" and I thought this would be on the level of a really cheap cable movie. Boy, was I1980s! Smart references, great use of '80s music to push the story and forward. The early beach scenes look a little too much like "From Justin to Kelly" and I thought this would be on the level of a really cheap cable movie. Boy, was I wrong. Fun references, a real understanding of 80s culture wrapped in an enjoyably colorful package that is also balanced by a darker, yet equally satisfying side. So many references that I need to watch it again. Acting, singing dancing, sets/props, costumes, and lighting are all terrific. Great movie for pure entertainment. Expand

Missing the charm of the original and musical numbers are anemic. It isn't horrible - just utterly average.

This movie is so cute, I'm a big fan of Jessica Rothe and JOsh Whitehouse and they did not disappoint.
