Variety
Variety"The five young stars would have mixed well even without the fraudulent encounter-group candor towards which The Breakfast Club forces them."

The New York Times
The New York Times"The Breakfast Club doesn't need earthshaking revelations; it's about kids who grow willing to talk to one another, and it has a surprisingly good ear for the way they speak."

Roger Ebert
Roger Ebert"Good and bad, it's still the definitive '80s teen movie."
