.Well, it was Sean Penn's finest role and performance. Maybe because it was so close to reality?

Sean Penn is a leftist buffoon troublemaker but he can put on a good show...

Sleazy movie targeting youth.

I didn't see this one, but he was also good in TAPS, playing a VERY different character.

Love this movie. Ray Walston, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Phoebe Cates, Oingo Boingo song at the end. Epic.

Besides Sean Penn playing Spicoli, I thought the part played by Phoebe Cates was quite revealing as well, in fact she could have stolen the glory from Penn.

I liked the scene where the teacher turned the tables on the idiot Spicoli and shared his pizza with the class.

Yes, Sean Penn at his peak. It was a great movie; one particularly enjoyed Mr. Hand showing up at Spicoli’s house on graduation eve.

Sean Penn is a great actor. Great actors are often insane Leftists. They are character actors who can believe things they know are not true.

Great movie. I missed it when it was released but have seen it a couple of times years later.

I like the movie, but there is something cringey about it. And maybe because teen years are cringey as well.

And every time "Moving In Stereo" by The Cars comes on the radio, I have to say, "Hi Brad."

Cut to the chase...

What teenage boy would cherish "Fast Times" without the topless Phobe Cates fantasy scene?

I had no idea that Nicholas Cage was in the movie until I read this article

Classic movie saw this in the theater when it came out and laughed my butt off.
Late 70’s early 80’s was a great time to be a teenager.
