Reality Bites (1994)
7/10
90's Time Capsule
4 August 2020
This movie is the 90's in all of it's 90 minutes, so if you're nostalgic then look no further. The film tells a familiar coming of age story: high school graduates become adults and figure out their futures aren't that bright. Every generation is passed on the world from their parents and they have to deal with it and the fact that they may even become their parents. This is that story in it's all it's angsty 90's glory and the film does it with some fair humor. Winona Ryder,Ben Stiller, Ethan Hawke, and Steve Zahn are your main players but a number of cameos are made from other 90's mainstays such as David Spade and Andy Dick. While the movie does risk becoming too campy at times, for the most part this is a dry and fairly sober look at what it meant to be a young adult trying to survive at that time.
