Deaner '89

I had the incredible opportunity to be a background actor in Deaner '89, and the entire experience was unforgettable. From being on set to seeing the final product on release day, it was surreal to watch the movie come to life, especially after seeing so much of what went on behind the scenes.

I even got to meet Paul Spence, who couldn't have been nicer. In one scene, he had to push past me, and he took the time to check in and make sure I knew what was happening. As a freshly 18-year-old working on my very first project, it meant the world to me. It was such a small moment, but it showed how professional and kind he was.

Maybe I'm a little biased from being part of the filming process, but I genuinely enjoyed the movie. It has that raw, nostalgic energy with just the right mix of humor and heart. Whether you're a fan of FUBAR or just looking for something different, Deaner '89 is a ride worth taking.

What a great 80's style movie. This is exactly how good movies were made in the 80's and 90's. It's got such a feel good vibe and also is funny as hell. I will be watching this over and over for many years. If you're a fan of the original Fubar movie or 80's style films then this movie is for you. It's got lots of great Canadian humor and also that 80's rock n roll vibe. The casting is also pretty spot on and all the actors and actresses do a great job. It's been awhile since we've had a great Canadian made film that will become an instant classic and will bring new fans into the Fubar world. Turn up the good and turn down the sick!!! WHOO!! GIVER!!

When I stumbled upon the 2024 movie "Deaner '89", by random chance here in 2024, I opted to watch it, since it was a movie that I hadn't already seen, nor actually heard about. And being a metalhead myself, then of course the storyline of the movie just had all the more appeal to lure me in.

And I will say that I was definitely entertained by the script and storyline that writer Paul Spence had come up with. It was a simple, yet straightforward, storyline that sort of had a make-you-feel-good vibe to it. And I couldn't help but have a chuckle along the way, especially because the Dean character was so over-the-top.

The only familiar faces on the screen for me was Stephen McHattie, Will Sasso, Kevin McDonald and Lauren Cochrane. The acting performances in the movie were good. And writer Paul Spence had come up with some good characters and dialogue.

"Deaner '89" is definitely a movie that I would recommend you to sit down and watch, especially if you enjoy the late 1980s era and have a fondness for metal. So sit down and raise the horns for Dean.

My rating of director Sam McGlynn's 2024 movie "Deaner '89" lands on a six out of ten stars.

As a Métis person this movie inspired me to appreciate more my roots, as a metal head this movie inspired me to appreciate more my rooooots (blooooody roooooots) haha I know sepultura isn't the type of metal we're talking about here but it fits🤘🏼

But in all seriousness, this is an incredible movie and even though it outside the FUBAR world now it still has the spirit of the original movies with Deaners character.

This movie will be watched along side the originals by all of the old school fubar fans guaranteed as if it were a sequel to the originals, INSTANT CANADIAN CLASSIC 100%

Rent or buy this movie is worth every single penny.

Well, that was the best movie I've seen in a long time. I laughed my ass off. The characters were well developed. The humour was intelligent and relatable. I loved the sister and brother relationship. I had never seen the previous fubar movie before but i had an open mind when watching this film. It was so funny and laughed out loud a bunch of times. The music is soooo good. I think this is my new favorite movie and im going to say this is a Canadian Masterpiece. I really hope they make a sequel to this where Deaner lives in Calgary and starts a band or something. If you have time go do yourself a favour and watch this flick.
