Stand by Me

"IF I COULD ONLY HAVE ONE FOOD TO EAT FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE?" "THAT'S EASY. PEZ. CHERRY FLAVOR PEZ. NO QUESTION ABOUT IT."

After learning that a boy their age has been accidentally killed near their rural homes, four boys decide to go see the body. Gordie, Vern, Chris, and Teddy encounter a mean junk man and a marsh full of leeches, but they also learn more about one another and their very different home lives. Just a lark at first, the boys' adventure evolves into a defining event in their lives.

    Way too long and dragged out. It had potential, but it lost me halfway through.

    The perfect blend of action, humor, and heart. One of the best movies I've seen in years.

    The plot was full of holes, and the acting felt forced. I had higher expectations.
