For Keeps Audience Reviews

Hadrina The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
Usamah Harvey The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
Keeley Coleman The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
Portia Hilton Blistering performances.
probablyasloth It sure was a movie. Acting was eh. Had one or two heartfelt moments. Pauly shore's second performance. It was fine.
Pookyiscute I've seen this movie a couple of times and I love it to death! I'd have to say that I have two all time favorite movies, and this is a tie with The Year My Voice Broke. This movie, is set in (present day -which at the time was 1988)in a small town of the U.S. These two high school sweethearts get pregnant, and decide that although both sets of parents are against it, they are going to get married. It's the story of their successes and trials that they face throughout their pregnancy and once the baby is born while they are married. Molly Ringwald is wonderful in the movie, but then, I think she's one of the most talented actresses, who unfortunately was type-casted so much, really wasn't able to overcome it after the '80s. Her leading man is also very good. I found him to be a great pick for that role, and he made you believe he really was his character. This movie is sweet, sincere, and really true to what the message is trying to say. I love this movie, and hope that all of you will take the time to watch it. It's not only educational but romantic, and heartwarming. I give it a 10 out of 10.That's my review.
[email protected] For Keeps (1988) Molly Ringwald, Randall Batinkoff, Kenneth Mars, Miriam Flynn, Conchata Ferrell, Sharon Brown, Renee Estevez, John Zarchen, Michelle Downy, Pauly Shore, D: John G. Avildsen. Long-term high school couple marries thinking they can handle a life together after diligent Ringwald gets pregnant. Truthful teen trials like sex, marriage, parenthood, and family acceptance are underscored, but the repercussions of the story are obvious and insincere. Good intentions though. Running Time: 98 minutes and rated PG-13 for some language and sexual situations. RATING: ** (out of ****)
kelsin I am a sucker for chic flics and this one is the best I have ever seen. Made me so happy after I saw it the first time. Great movie, teaches some good lessons, and has plenty of comedy in it also. In my mind gets ten stars for what it is. I Loved it :)
