Time -
Ferris and his adventures represent a teen's dream of glory: to have, at one's fingertips, the technical skills to sabotage the adult world's machinery of oppression and, at the tip of one's tongue, the perfect squelch for grownups' moralistic blather. [23 June 1986]

The Globe and Mail (Toronto) -
This is the funniest teen movie I've seen in eons.

Film Threat -
This is John Hughes' best teen film, and it's a call to arms to everyone in the world who doesn't want to follow society's lame-ass rules at the expense of living a cool life.

Chicago Sun-Times -
The film's heart is in the right place, and Ferris Bueller is slight, whimsical and sweet.
