Best for older kids
I recently learned about this movie - it being made in the 80's and me being born in the 90's, I had no clue this movie existed - but, I watched it once and instantly fell in love with it! I laughed so much during this film and every time I watch it I laugh over and over again. It's so funny! Although they do swear a lot and there are a few scenes that would be iffy for children under 13, this is by far one of my favorite movies, a must watch classic!

The second best John Hughes movie ever (behind Ferris Bueller's Day Off).
My rating: R for strong language, sexual content and teen drug use.

it would go over the heads of kids under 9.
ATTENTION PARENTS: the breakfast club is my favorite movie.i watched it when i was 11.i actaually watched it literally 20 times in 2 weeks.if i sat down and watched it again,the lines would still be memorized!and also, when i watched it,i understood all of the jokes.i actaually cried tears of joy at the end.it is a wicked happy ending.but of course,they talk about who is and isnt a virgin,how John Benders home life is abusive,and john smokes pot and cigarattes.you see Molly ringwalds panties while she is still in them, and there is a lot of cursing.but it sends out the message that, in the good words of Amellio Estives's character Andrew Clark,"everyones bizzare.its just that some of us are better at hiding it". i was looked down on in school for being the weird one,and it really got to me until i heard that statement.:)

I loved the play. It was awesome. So was the movie. Yes there is a bit of swearing, but that's what teens do. Live with it. Teens also talk about sex, or sex related topics.It's part of life. Yes they do get high, but not for very long and they don't hurt anyone because they're high.

best movie ever i loved it!
this is one of the best movies for teenagers 13 and up, all they do is talk in the library cause they have saturday detention, and good thing theres no violent stuff, but one student had a one big pratfall from the top of the wall while climbing inside the attic in school and ran back from the library, nothing anything good, but some bad stuff, i loved this movie though, and theres talk of virginity, way too much bad words in it, characters smoke marjuana and cigars in the library, they also drink coke, well i will not recommend that its not for 12 and under at all, because of too many bad words throughout the whole movie, i totally loved it btw, well i will enjoy watching it whenever i feel like it though

Among the best high-school movies
Among the best high-school movies can get. Thought-inducing and fueled with many interesting discussions, and overall it provides quality viewing (and thinking) for pre-teens. It also references literature, which is something always positive for a teen movie to show.

Great 80's film!
I think it was a great film. It has some swearing and a drug scene, but it's not that intense compared to todays films. Despite the R rating I think a mature teenager can handle it!

Rating Lower?
Although this movie is rated R, it could somewhat be accepted as a PG-13 movie as well.

AWESOME BUT NOT FOR KIDS
i love this movie so much! but there is too much for a child or kid. first of all there is a ton of swearing, f-ck,and every word you can imagine. there is one scene where they all smoke marijuana and they all get high except for one of the characters, and one asks what her poison was and she said vodka and she said she drinks it all the time, one of the characters puts his face up a girls dress, they also talk about virginity. there is not a lot of violence they just mention it, because on of the characters talked about his dad abusing him which is not to bad. this movie is NOT for KIDS
