It sure was a movie. Acting was eh. Had one or two heartfelt moments. Pauly shore's second performance. It was fine.

This is one of those underrated 80's teen movies. You have Ferris Bueler, Breakfast Club, Pretty in Pink, 16 Candles, Better Off Dead, etc. And somewhere in there is For Keeps? Or at least I thought it was that good to be somewhere up there. I thought this should have gotten more credit. It shows what a young couple would have to go through raising a baby. You really feel for the characters and truly hope they'll end up working out all of their problems. Molly Ringwald and John Zarcan do an exceptional job in their roles. The parents were really funny and entertaining. All in all this is a great film with both laughs and tears. I found myself smiling without even knowing it!

I've watched this movie since it came out and I was only 3 years old. I love this movie!!! I think anyone who likes movies about babies, romance, teen love then this is for you I DEFIETLY RECOMMEND IT. Some people may say it sux but it is definely the best love/romatic comedy. It tells you the real truth behind love and trouble.Here is my summary!!Darcy Elliot (Molly Ringwald) Kenosha's star reporter is in love with her boy friend Stan Bobrucz (Randall Batkinoff) who is a architect. All he does is talks about attending and Darcy wants nothing more then to be a reporter!! But when you're so in love you have to take it that much further and do it 6 times lol. The car, The car, The garage, the tent, the basement, then the RAIN.Darcy ends up having French nite with her mom and of course when her mom pulls off the lid to the disgusting boilding chicken wings Darcy has to go spew. Then the next day she takes a test and finds out that the baby is on the way.Stan supports her 100% through out the entire pregnacy. And then after the baby is born Darcy realizes how much of a mistake she made, she writes that When she was giving birth everything she loved about being young was being ripped out to. But then realizes how much she loves her daughter Theadosea Bobrucze.Then Stan and Darcy have some trouble!! OF course all newlywed marriges are a little scary at the begging Darcy wants devoce but he doesn't want it so she'll have it anuled. But in the end the parents of Darcy and Stan forgive them for all the trouble they put themselves and future in and STAN AND DARCY live Happily ever after.I THINK THEY SHOULD MAKE A SECOND FOR KEEPS!! BECAUSE I wanna know how that marriage is today even though it isn't real and it's just a made up movie!!. If anyone would like to write to me or talk to me about this movie I am more than happy to do so THIS IS MY FAVORITE MOVIE!! TALK TO ANYONE SOON!!

Moving on to more adult themes, 80's teen star Molly Ringwald does a movie about how teen pregnancy can change your life. The mood of this movie starts off light but then turns much more serious after Ringwald and her boyfriend decide to keep their baby and get married. Of course their lives fall apart and things just get much worse before they get better. Not a typical Ringwald movie, it often is very depressing and makes you want to simply turn it off as Darcy's (Ringwald) life goes from great to awful. Topics such as abortion, adoption, and post partum depression are discussed which you can all see makes for a fun movie. Avoid this one if you can.
