Alain E Watchable, but.. Modine doesn’t have the physical appearance to overcome his opponent who is much more muscular. Carla’s character is hard to accept. Starts a relationship only to leave soon after. What is the story with all the nosebleeds. I thought he would have been diagnosed with leukemia or something. Tangerine Dream is credited with the music, but most of the songs are commercial crap rock. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/11/25 Full Review Christian K Way more in depth and thoughtful than you would ever expect from a high school wrestling sports movie. There are real, detailed characters in this. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/03/25 Full Review Doug C For anyone who grew up in the 80’s this is a must watch. It has all the elements of being a teenager, an American and an incredible sound track. Linda Fiorentino was every teenage boys dream, do yourself a favor and watch it, you won’t be sorry 💪💪💪👏👏👏 Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/30/24 Full Review Sabrina F I am not a sports movie person, but Vision Quest is one of the exceptions to the rule. This is not the standard sports film that follows all of the same beats. Louden does not want to win the state championship. He just wants to cute weight so that he can wrestle the toughest wrestler in the 168-weight class. Louden is not the typical dumb jock. He is strong in his academics as well as his athletics. He is driven and will do anything to succeed in his goals. Louden is a likable and relatable character. You root for him. There is nothing over-the-top about this film. It is predictable but still perfectly-paced and enjoyable. I liked all of the main characters, and the soundtrack is amazing. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/25/24 Full Review John B Best wrestling movie ever made. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/02/24 Full Review Pablo B I remember watching this movie as a kid and how much I loved it. I recently went back to watch it and see how well it has held up and was just as fond of this movie as my younger self was. One of the most iconic scenes in the movie has the most iconic lines that I think is an excellent barometer that most writers today overlook. When Louden goes to visit Shute in his workout, the iconic scene where Brian Shute is intensely working out carrying the log up the stadium stairs. It's incredible how the writers don't make Brian out to be some maniac villain, the exchange between the two is something along the lines of "Are you going to make weight?", "I hope so.", "I hope so too." There didn't need to be some Mcguffin as to why Louden wants or needs to beat Shute. Outside of that the soundtrack to this movie is just absolutely incredible. Maybe it's nostalgia, but this movie still is five stars for me. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/14/23 Full Review Read all reviews
