Close Encounters of the Third Kind is on Netflix. Not quite an 80’s movie. Came out in ‘77.

Have you done a search for the Police Academy movies? Steve Guttenberg, who plays Mahoney, is a national treasure. He was also good in Something for Joey, but that was in the 70's. I'm still disappointed scifi discontinued his Lavalantula movies.

Prime has "Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey" as well as "Men at Work ".
Classics to me.

Caddyshack and Stripes are two 80's classics that come to mind. I don't think they are on NetFlix, but perhaps Amazon Prime

Ferris Beuhler’s Day Off is on Netflix.

Just watched Ferris Bueller with my 16 year old. They filmed part of it at my old high school in Illinois. John Hughes went to my school.

Breakfast Club and 16 Candles has been on a lot recently. Fun movies to watch.
