Review of Fandango

Fandango (1985)
6/10
Fairly dull pseudo-nostalgia
26 November 2018
"Fandango" is a nostalgia flick about a group of college graduates who have a little road trip right before they have to face oblivion in the form of Vietnam and marriage.

It's mostly pretty dull. Only two of the four characters connect: Kevin Costner in an early starring role, and Judd Nelson as a proto-nerd. The other two don't do much, even though one is played by Sam Robards - son of Jason AND Lauren Bacall.

The movie does boast one fantastic sequence when Nelson goes parachuting with a hippie-hermit who packed laundry instead of a parachute.
