Before Pretty Woman made her a star, and before she became one of the biggest actresses in Hollywood… Julia Roberts was in a movie called Satisfaction.
And somehow, we’re watching it. 😂
This week on The VHS Club, Katie and Nat are going back to 1988 to revisit Satisfaction, starring Justine Bateman, Julia Roberts, Liam Neeson, Trini Alvarado, and Britta Phillips.
The movie follows an all-girl rock band called The Mystery as they head to a beach resort for the summer, land a gig at a nightclub, navigate romances and questionable decisions, and try to figure out what comes next.
Basically: young musicians + summer vacation + Liam Neeson + the late ’80s. What could possibly go wrong?
We’re talking about:
🎸 Justine Bateman as a rock star
🌟 A very young Julia Roberts
😳 Liam Neeson as the older love interest
🎶 The Mystery and their extremely ’80s performances
🏖️ The movie’s summer-at-the-beach vibes
📼 Why this movie seems to have disappeared from pop culture
😂 The moments that aged well…and the ones that REALLY didn’t
⭐ And, most importantly: Is Satisfaction actually any good?
Plus, we’ll have behind-the-scenes trivia, favorite moments, questionable fashion choices, tangents, and all the nostalgia you’d expect from The VHS Club.
Tater Tots: Did you watch Satisfaction back in the day, or is this your first time discovering it?
