Yuppies

About This Movie

So, 'Yuppies' from '86—what a curious little gem. It's got this distinctly Italian vibe, capturing the hedonistic essence of the 80s Milan scene. The film revolves around these four young guys who are all about appearances, riding the wave of yuppie culture. You get some interesting performances, especially from the characters trying to juggle their professional lives with their superficial aspirations. The pacing is a bit uneven, which kind of mirrors their chaotic lives. And while I can't quite pinpoint the director's style—it feels like a mix of satire and comedy—there's something distinctly relatable about these characters. The atmosphere is filled with a certain glitz, but it never feels overly polished, which gives it an edge. Definitely a unique piece in the landscape of 80s cinema.
