The 80's were a great decade for teen movies. In fact, it was the best. There were a ton of great ones that everybody knows. But there were also some really good ones that slipped through the cracks. "Firstborn" is one of those that a lot of people missed. That's a shame. "Firstborn" is top-notch stuff. The cast is great. Teri Garr, Peter Weller, Christopher Colet and Corey Haim all deliver the goods. "Firstborn" is not a perfect movie. The coach character is pointless and the teacher is totally ridiculous. The chase scene is also a bit much. That said, when "Firstborn" is on point, it's great stuff.
