Although sometimes romantic and funny, Valley Girl has little substance while showing off a certain airhead vibe.
It reminds me of Clueless with Alicia Silverstone but better. I like certain parts,
but I wish the director would stick with them, allowing the film to finish at a high note.
Meanwhile, Nicolas Cage gives a good, sexy performance but has nothing to work with.
As for the rest of the cast, they can be safely dismissed.
All in all, Valley Girl is fine in spots but doesn't have enough meat to provide entertainment in the long run.
