Pee-wee's Big Adventure Movie Review 1985

Zany, endearing comedy about an adult nerd's many adventures while attempting to recover his stolen bicycle. Chock full of classic sequences, including a barroom encounter between Pee-wee and several ornery bikers, and a tour through the Alamo. A colorful, exhilarating experience.
