Synopsis
Teenage slacker Cliff Spab (Dorff) enters a local convenience store in the suburbs to buy some beer and is taken hostage along with Wendy (Witherspoon) for 36 days. But he gets a lot more than just a six-pack, because with a gun to his head and national television capturing Spab's nihilistic attitude, people not only begin listening to this disgruntled youth, but create a cult phenomenon out of his "So F

5.0 out of 5 stars SFW, 15 Jul 2003
This review is from: SFW [VHS] [1995] (VHS Tape)
This is a great film about a convenience store hostage situation that is broadcast nationally,
making some of the hostages national hero's. SFW focuses on the chaos that ensues when you
give fame and fortune to disaffected youth who not only don't really care, but don't even want it
(Hence the title which will become clear when you watch the film). Steven Dorff and Reese
Witherspoon are perfect in the lead roles, allowing young people or those who were once young
to identify with the situations. (Tobey Maguire of Spiderman also appears in an early cameo as a stoned teenager)

3.0 out of 5 stars An open view of todays fickle society, 19 Jan 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: SFW [VHS] [1995] (VHS Tape)
This film begins well but lacks the get up and go that you need to keep interested. The opening scene leads you to believe that there would have been more emphasis on the actual hostage experience. Stephen Dorff and Reece Witherspoon are both great in this film as the lead roles. This film was in all a disappointment, the only highlight was that Stephen Dorff was the lead character.

4.0 out of 5 stars s.f.w., 12 Jun 2009
By Mr. C. Sutton - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
S.F.W. is one of those rare films that seems to operate entirely according to its own little bubble of logic - it's not really reminiscent of, or similar to, any other films I've seen. Basically a satire of the general public's fascination with turning the average joe into a media celebrity, S.F.W. is actually a lot more than that. It's a clever film. Some of the acting is deliberately hammy, almost as if the director is challenging you to take the film at face value. The film has a garish, sometimes dream-like feel to it, frequently taking in surreal detours and flashbacks along the way. The short sequence involving Garry Coleman from 'Dif'rent Strokes' - playing himself - is one of most amusing things I've seen in any movie recently...pure cinematic gold. Stephen Dorff is excellent as Cliff Spab - the anarchic, witty cool-guy bemused at his sudden rise to fame, and all the supporting actors are good as well. Overall, S.F.W. is an original, gutsy, funny, and intelligent piece of film-making. Maybe a tad too off-the-wall to be considered a true classic, but I'd still recommend this to anyone. 4 stars
