Underrated Excellent Movie

I saw this years and years and years ago and have always thought John Hurts performance, and I believe David Alan Grier back in the day - and Judd Nelson were all excellent... I think the script is amazing and would almost like to see this movie "re-made" for "today's" audiences as I think it would be a blockbuster. But... of course... the original would be best. I'd like to see it get an Art-House re-release.

Agreed. It was a good romp. One of Judd's better post brat-pack flicks. Good way to spend a rainy Sunday afternoon. I love the whole thing about "Becky"

I guess it would be renamed... From The Hipster.
