This film shows that today's youth can live in shabby dwellings, frequent noisy bars, and also go to school. We encounter the central character, Oskar, in two stages of development: in the first, he drinks himself into a stupor out of unhappy love, mourns the lover who broke up with him, and makes futile attempts to win her back. In the second part of the story, he pulls himself together, devotes himself to sports and working out at the gym, clarifies his priorities in life, and successfully arranges for computers to be put into operation. But soon, bored, lonely women begin to value things other than knowledge, and Oskar gradually becomes a sexual predator.

Forty years after The Goonies (1985) America’s consciousness hasn’t strayed from the same tropes: treasure hunts, a vulnerable white male lead, and the whitewashing of a racially segregated setting.
