Review of The Wanderers

The Wanderers (1979)
6/10
Dated but timeless nostalgia high school flick
20 July 2003
"The Wanderers" is a high school nostalgia flick centered on a 1963 Bronx street gang of the title name. Lame, tame, and a trip down memory lane, this jambalaya of things early 60's (circa 1979) will be of most interest to the 60ish crowd for nostalgia reasons though the comedy and drama are timeless. Of the same ilk as "Hollywood Knights" or "Fast Times at Ridgemont High" though it didn't launch as many careers and is probably the lesser of the lot. (B-)
