I think you're confused, the movie is actually called "Suburban Commando"

Hope that helps!

I love Richard Linklater's "Suburbia" and "The 'Burbs" is good too.

Oh, cool! That one passed me by, I must've always had it confused with Thumbsucker (2005). My brain does that

Damn nobody mentioned Donnie Darko?

Sometimes I wonder if we've done the full loop and Donnie iz back in good graces.
According to Richard Kelly, he took a date to see Fire Walk With Me  (https://birthmoviesdeath.com/2017/06/30/trying-times-podcast-episode-five-the-great-escape-with-special-guest-richa)and she fell asleep. Hence, the movie theater scene in Donnie Darko.

So there's two suburban flicks worth their angst - the stranglehold of adolescent routine, and the performative virtue of everyone therein.
