Class of 1984 (1982)
Great movie
When I first watched this film I was quite amazed at the level of disobedience and violence in the film. But upon finishing it I realized that this film was a masterpiece. Perry King does a great job as Mr.Norris while Timothy Van Patten does his role great as stegman. The film captures the early 80s atmosphere quite well.The beginning intro done by Alice cooper gives a glimpse into the darkness of the punk scene that is present in the film. I have to say that the scene where Mr.Norris wreckes Stegamans car never gets old as it shows a man willing to go to extremes to even out with his enemies despite putting his and his wife's life on the line. When Mr.Norris finally gets rid of stegman and his crew it was one of the moments I cheered for him as he had enough of their control over the school. I would highly recommend to anyone who has the time to spare for this masterpiece.
The Brotherhood of Justice (1986)
interesting 80s film
First off when I heard about this movie I decided to watch it because of it's 1980s teenager story, and Keanu reeves in his younger years, a well executed plot as any Charles Braverman film. I give it 10/10 for its 1980s atmosphere and realistic view of vigilantism during that time period,not to forget: it's lesson to all youth that sometimes standing up to crime your own way doesn't necessarily mean it can turn into a good thing when it finally turns tables on you in the long run. Another factor that I like about the film is its climax when Derek's friends use the brotherhood for their own greedy deeds and with all the trouble started Derek's girlfriend Christie persuades him to leave but a helpless Derek is left with only one choice in the matter: to turn himself in to the authorities along with his friends, thus ending the brotherhood once and for all.
