A forerunner to Friends and a Brat Pack movie with the most…Brat Packers, St. Elmo’s Fire was a romantic comedy that bowed out to theatres in 1985. Seven of the eight stars were in the enviable “Brat Pack” group, young and precocious actors and actresses that were considered the best of the best of their generation. While St. Elmo’s Fire is often considered a mellow and almost overblown teen romcom by the starchiest of critics, it’s a approved of many 1980s film lovers.

Video and Audio
The video is remarkably smart. The film was issued in the early years of DVD, when most transfers looked more like cable TV quality, but the video here is exceptional. Presented in its recent widescreen is always a wonderful thing, and the print quality is huge. The colors are vibrant and suitable, and there’s miniature to no grain or dust. One minor complaint would be the main titles, in its unsettling red font, but other than that, the video is colossal.
Audio is offered in English, but the subtitles are in so many languages that if you wanted, you could learn Chinese by reading the film enough times. It’s blooming balanced in terms of dialogue vs. background noise/music.
Bonus Features
A commentary by Joel Schumacher is one of the many audio tracks given on this disc. He does a fine apt job talking about making the movie, including various tidbits about the actors and the anecdote (which he wrote) . The guy’s fair splendid with a microphone. If only he could have done a commentary for his film The Phantom of the Opera in 2004.
A ancient and dirt-filled 8-minute EPK about the making of the film is also presented, made at the time the film came out. It has expeditiously interviews with the cast and director, with a narrator talking during mighty of the leisurely the scenes footage. Is it an exhaustive documentary? No. Is it a useless 8 minutes of your life taken away? No. It’s gorgeous rewatchable, though a longer more tall featurette would be welcoming.
“Man in Motion” is the music video that uses the St. Elmo’s Fire theme with lyrics. It’s got a true 80s notice to it, and features most of the cast as well as video clips from the film.
There are four trailers: St. Elmo’s Fire, About Last Night, Groundhog Day, and Jerry Maguire. The trailers for St. Elmo’s Fire and About Last Night are not the best video-quality-wise, while Jerry Maguire is not the best movie-quality-wise. Groundhog Day is okay for what it is.
There are also cast/director biographies and filmographies up until 2000.
Closing Thoughts
Perhaps the second best brat pack movie of the 80s (The Breakfast Club, of course, is THE best), St. Elmo’s Fire is a improbable “coming-of-age…now what? ” kind of film that is best enjoyed in the company of your closest friends.
Well, let the critics say what they may. I savor this movie. I believe it’s fantastic.

Quite honestly, I’ve lost track of the number of times I’ve seen it; I’ve ragged out two videotapes of it, and am making helpful headway on my third copy.
And why do I fancy it? I mediate the messages in it–about like and loyalty, friendship and betrayal, growing up and growing apart–can be applied to every stage of life. The first time I saw it, I was six years old; it was a “Tuesday Night at the Movies” movie…somehow, it related to my life. Fourteen years later, as a junior in college, it tranquil makes sense. I firmly bear that it unexcited will, years down the line. The actors are extraordinary, too.
