...Ferris Bueller...
Paradoxically, it is in part because of obvious references and similarities to other archetypal comedies ("The name's Bueller. Ferris Bueller."), that "Day Off" is so miraculously original and funny. You've seen these comic devices before, but never all combined, and probably not with such a slick script and hilarious acting...
...RECOGNIZE a lot of Ferris Bueller's Day Off the first time you see it. Like Joel in Risky Business, Ferris takes on a catchy motto (though "Life goes fast. If you don't watch out, you could miss it" just can't compare with "Sometimes you just gotta say `What the fuck."') and deceives all authority figures...
Sound like fun viewing? It is. The scene when the high schoolers' taxi pulls up next to Mr. Bueller's is an absolute classic...
