“Vision Quest” (1985) Review

Vision Quest, made in 1985 is a romance/drama. With stars Michael Schoeffling, Madonna, and Linda Fiorentino making appearances, this doesn’t ensure any actual success for the movie. In fact, the movie is kind of trash. There is no real plot, it’s an 80s version of a coming of age indie film, which should just be illegal. There are numerous scenes where the main character sexually assaults a young woman, and then in the end he still gets the girl, and it’s just seen as “boys being immature or boys just being boys”. Although it follows the plot of many other 80s movies, it’s so bad that it doesn’t make the popularity list unless you were a teenage girl in 1985.

I wouldn’t recommend it to my worst enemy. I would give the movie a 3/10, only because I feel bad for the woman in the lead role, and some of the acting was okay.
