Nearly perfect.

Rob Lowe stars as a drifter who takes yuppie James Spader under his wing and starts to turn Spader's life inside out. The acting is pretty good, but the writting and the direction will knock you out. Clever, and very stylish plus it is filled with exciting moments that will have you on the edge of your seat. One of my favorite films of all time. Rating: 9.5 / 10

Fun 80s movie about a yuppie who has it all and a con artist who befriends him.

James Spader at his best. Michael (James Spader) is a v successful young man in LA in late 80s who has trouble saying no.

He has a controlling girlfriend. An older brother who is an underachiever and always borrows money. A coworker who is v manipulative and walks all over him.

His life is being "run" for him. Until he meets Alex (Rob Lowe) who is a rogue, bravado guy who does whatever he wants. Michael (James Spader) is drawn to him.

It starts out fun but Michael later finds out "grass is always greener on the other side", and his life was a actually pretty good when it was "boring".

Rob Lowe his 80s good looking best. Fun movie if you were an 80s yuppie and want to see the South Bay Area in LA. Nostalgic.
