Rainbow, my boyfriend bought it for me for Christmas cause I had only seen bits and pieces of it back in the day. I watched it again and it was downright awful! The only thing I liked was Julia Roberts' character and the little storyline with her and her boyfriend...there's one scene with the 2 of them that's mildy amusing. I guess it's worth a one time viewing but don't say I didn't warn you. See anything else good in that bin?

I liked Satisfaction. It's a different movie. I don't like it as much as many other 80s movies, but if you are a fan of the people in it, and of 80s movies, then you should see it! There are some funny parts in it.

I didnt think much of it. Their "band" wasnt anything special either. Its one of those movies that I might watch if it was on TV for free but wouldnt go out of my way to watch. Still it is sort of interesting to see (a blonde!) Julia Roberts before she was famous.

Running On Empty with River Phoenix and Martha Plimpton is AMAZING! He was nominated for an Oscar for this role. Don't go by the cover cause it looks kind of blah and boring but it is such a great story. The chemistry between River and Martha is outstanding! Check it out, you won't be disappointed.

Rainbowbrite, I actually liked Satisfaction. I thought Justine Bateman was girl band cool in this movie.
Now, Running on Empty is in a whole different league. River Phoenix is outstanding as a teenager caught up in the past of his parents. Very serious movie.

As for Satisfaction I've seen better. I don't think for me it would be one that I would buy. I mean if it is on TV and nothing better is on I'll watch it again but otherwise I'd pass.

Watched Satisfaction and sadly i didn´t like it very much. I didn´t care about the characters at all. Justine Bateman tried hard but with poor results.
The music was ok but not great.
Why this movie turned out this way, i just don´t know... It was written by Charles Purpura who also wrote the great Heaven Help Us aka Catholic Boys (1985)

I wouldn't buy this movie. Back when I saw it as a teenager it was ok I guess. But watching it now it's just pretty bad. It's pretty much a chick flick with a pretty weak soundtrack.

Well if I was feeling suicidal, 10 minutes into this would surely push me over the edge.

Trust Crash to chime in...shouldn't you be over on The Facts of Life board?
I hear ya man....this movie looks like a 0/10 but I am sure there will be a few people raving on as if it was the best movie ever made.

As I said before about "Satisfaction," I give Liam Neeson all the credit in the world. He admitted that he only did the movie to meet cute girls.

Well I could give you my philosophy about certain movies but at the risk of sounding like I am a visitor from IMDB, so I'll give it a miss.
