- Synopsis:
- A sly piece of pop subversion, this irresistible satire of Reagan-era materialism features Tom Cruise in his star-is-born breakthrough as a Chicago suburban prepster whose college-bound life spirals out of control when his parents go out of town for the week and an enterprising call girl (Rebecca De Mornay) invites him to walk on the wild side. While Cruise boogying in his briefs yielded one of the most iconic pop-cultural moments of the 1980s, it is the film's unexpected mix of tender romance (enhanced by a moody synth score by Tangerine Dream) and sharp-witted capitalist critique that remains fresh and daring.

It was made a long time ago... - Risky Business review by MT
I hadn’t seen this for ages. I knew it was made a long time ago, but it was still a bit of a shock. Cruise is so young, smoking is cool, making money is even cooler - even the Porsche looks dated, and in a bad way. Possibly the weirdest thing was seeing Joe Pantoliano with his own hair. A historical document.
