Overall, I was disappointed. A bunch of my friends told me how awesome it was, so I had some real high hopes. It was just sort of OK. But, because of all the hype, I ended up liking it less than if nobody had told me anything about it.
I felt it would have been better had they used other big 80's actors along with John Cusack and inserted a bunch of in-jokes from their 80's movies. There was one mention of "Two dollars" which to me was an in-joke from Better Off Dead.

There are A LOT of in-jokes from Better Off Dead. Love that movie so I knew all the names and references. It's our family Thanksgiving tradition to watch it every year.
Funny if you listen to Cusack mention the names of the characters from Better Of Dead.
