The best depiction of the 90's, at least the first part as I experienced it
captured in a movie was an Australian movie called "The Castle".  That was set
not far from where I live, and captured what it was like back then quite
accurately.

I've seen depictions of the 80s today and it is different to how it actually
was.  Synthwave is a good example.  OBviously 80's inspired, but actually very
little like anything from the 80s.
