Description:
One of the most iconic teen comedies of the 1980s, Sixteen Candles, returns in an all-new Flashback Edition with never-before-seen bonus features! Samantha Baker (Molly Ringwald) is ready to make the most of her sweet sixteenth birthday … if only someone in her family would remember it. She’s your average teen, enduring creepy freshmen, spoiled siblings, confused parents and the “Big Blonde on Campus” who stands between her and the boy of her dreams. From writer/director John Hughes (The Breakfast Club, Weird Science), Sixteen Candles is a warm-hearted coming-of-age comedy that helped define a generation!
Amazon.com essential video:
Molly Ringwald established herself as the teen queen of the '80s in this fresh comedy. The movie is a day in the life of Samantha, whose 16th birthday is turning out to be anything but sweet. All the traumas of teendom come down on one long day, which sees Samantha surrounded by dithery relatives, mooning over a high school hunk, and pursued by a sawed-off Lothario. Sixteen Candles marked the directing debut of John Hughes, and its goofy energy displayed a promising talent with a great ear for high school lingo ... a promise neglected since Hughes became, after Home Alone, a one-man entertainment industry. There are some pretty crass moments (Why the stereotype of the foreign-exchange student from Asia?), but Ringwald's steady appeal smoothes over the rough spots. As the pubescent, self-styled lady-killer, Anthony Michael Hall turns in a hilarious portrait of a young swinger; he and Ringwald would reteam with Hughes for The Breakfast Club, another key teen picture of the decade. --Robert Horton

Samantha Baker(Molly Ringwald) has just woken up on the most special day of her life, her long awaited 16th birthday, only everyone in her house has forgotten!
She has a bratty little brother, a conceited sister who's getting married the next day, and two absent minded parents who've got there hands full with the relatives coming to stay with them.

"Sixteen Candles" is arguably the most well known film the the 1980s John Huges teen-film cannon. The film is the exact picture of high school as we try to imagine it as kids, and exactly what we remember when when we are reminescing as adults.
The film centers upon Molly Ringwald as we follow her around on her sixteenth birthday. Like all girls, Samantha has been building up her sweet-sixteen birthday for most of her teenage life. When she wakes up on the day she doesn't feel miraculously ... Read More

Sixteen Candles is kind of cheesy, but in a good way. What is a girl to do when she can't seem to catch the eye of her true love, has parents that forget her birthday and a sister that is completely self-absorbed? The plot line exaggerates the strifes of the teenage years in a way that is extremely funny. I enjoyed the film mostly for its nostalgia and humor. If you're a fan of the brat pack and 80's teenaged comedy, this is one film you won't want to miss. It's not one of my favorites, but it was certainly ... Read More
