  This movie was amazing! I had to give it 5 stars because the actors were phenomenal and the whole story line was wonderful. I loved all of it. I even saw it twice. Its got something for everyone and even if your not a fan of the play you'll love this movie. It is so much better. If you havent seen it you really are missing out on something so great, so go see it!

  Fabulous Fabulous Fabulous Fabulous Everybody was excellent, the dancing was frenetic and brilliant, Nikki adorable, John Travolta and Christopher Walken too funny for words. I would have liked to have seen more involvement by more people of..."non-colour"? in the social activism subplot. If everyone hadn't gotten involved, the rights movement would have died aborning. Americans are very weird about skin!

  Uh - when you remake a movie from a stage play - that was a remake of a movie - should the newest version be better than each of it's predecessors? Or at least as good? This was neither - and the star-heavy casting was lame. Divine, Debbie, Ricki, Ruth and Jerry (from the original) far outshined John, Michelle, Nicki, Queen and Christopher. Way too sappy and preachy to any longer be the campy edgy thing it was in it's original form.

  I must admit I am a much bigger fan of the 1988 original. I find the original was more edgy - the musical version (although it definitely worked on the stage) has been made way too safe, way too predictable, way too Hollywood. Even Penny didn't look like the nerd she's supposed to be. Also the songs of the original represented the era of the film - and the songs from the musical don't have the same kinda feel. I'm glad John Waters got a cameo. One thing (among many) I find odd is that Tracy is the central character - yet she has almost the smallest pic on the attached movie poster. Even Corny Collins pic is bigger. What up with that?

  Amazing! I loved it sooo much. I wanna go and see it again.The dancing and singing and acting was amazing! It was superb. John Travolta did a GREAT job. It was so amazing. Highly recommend you go and see it. It's one of the best movies of the year, if not the best. Plus Zac Efron wasn't bad either :D

  It was a good movie considering it was a musical. The music was upbeat. John Travolta can really shake it!
