6.6 / 10

Vision Quest is a coming of age movie in which high school wrestler Louden Swain decides he wants to be something more than an average high school athlete and sets his sights on a prize that many don't think he can win - he then sets out to reach his goal alone, without much support from his father or coach. His father rents a room to a young drifter, Carla. Swain falls in love with her and she helps him stay focused and prevents him from losing sight of his goals.

WORST TRAILER EVER, if the criteria is based on giving the viewer some idea of what the movie is about. For those who are watching this without having seen the movie: Vision Quest is actually a classic, inspirational sports movie with a romantic subplot & great 80's soundtrack - @Monday, August 14, 2017 4:35 AM

Looks like they tried to market the movie as a romantic comedy. Instead of being one of the best inspirational sports movies ever made. - @Thursday, September 29, 2016 3:25 AM

I thought the VO was Rick Dees. By the way, the trailer does the movie no justice. It's much better -- classic 80s flick. Only problem is the high school kids look 25. - @Wednesday, August 7, 2013 4:27 PM
