Pros: John Travolta, Olivia Newton-John, the music
Cons: Nothing

My girlfriend loves this movie and made me sit down and watch it with her. When it first came on I was skeptical. I don't usually like musicals, but I was pleased with the movie.The story is that Danny Zuko and Sandy Olsson meet one another on ...

Pros: Fun, entertaining movie.
Cons: Silly at times. Cast was a bit old.

It use to be very common for successful Broadway musicals to be turned into movies. Many of those movies were also very successful, with some of them even winning Oscars. Grease< b>< i> was the last movie version of a musical to be successful ...

Pros: Great Songs, Great Actors
Cons: Really more for adults.

Grease has to be one of my all time favorite musicals. I know the words to the songs. I can say the words with the cast. The daily life of teenagers in the 50's and 60's is explored. Of course, you have to remember this movie is for laughter, ...

Pros: Decent storyline, decent acting, nice songs
Cons: A bit cheesy really !

Before I start this review I will let you know now that I love this film and have loved it since I first saw it when I was just a child. I saw the DVD on sale at £5 (about $8) and had to buy it as I remembered the fun I used to have singing along to my ...

Pros: Comedy, Drama, and Music mixed well into one love story.
Cons: My Opinion: Not suitable for children under 10 due to sex-related material.

John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John star as 'Danny' and 'Sandy' in this musical love story about a 1950's hot-shot stud who must work to keep his phony reputation in tact in front of his friends and the girl he loves. When 'Sandy' finds that the loving ...

Pros: A unique film that is highly entertaining from beginning to end.
Cons: Lack of attention to characterisation, casting flaws, score has dated badly.

Grease was a musical stage show published in 1968. A sort of response to the hippy generation if you will. Where everyone else was getting high, listening to Bob Dylan and The Rolling Stones and protesting against the Vietnam War, along came a ...

Pros: Music, actors, plot.
Cons: cast a bit old, picture quality.

Let me start off by saying what a great movie this is. For my seventh birthday my aunt gave me the movie and the soundtrack and ever since I have been in love with it. Some people may argue that the material isn't appropriate for children (sex is...

Pros: Songs, direction.
Cons: Pretty fluffy and unimportant, and the actors are too old for their parts.

The musical genre was in the basement during the seventies, eighties, and nineties, until the apparent renaissance of such films like Moulin Rouge and Chicago. Back in the good old days, all sorts of musicals were hits, and award-winners, and even in...

Pros: A very entertaining musical which appeals to nostalgia fans
Cons: Good grief -- Disco!; sends and absolutely horrible message; cast is a bit old

This is one of my wife's favorite films and, indeed, I loved it as a kid. Heck, I still enjoy it, even though the film has a ton of problems. Amazingly, it succeeds in spite of sending a horrible message, casting folks too old to play high school...

Pros: Catchy soundtrack. Stockard Channing.
Cons: World's oldest high school students.

Following our Italian adventures, the European location unit for Goodfollies had one final stop before returning home to the United States and studio work. We all headed off to Barcelona for a few days. Here, we shot the most elaborate of the...

Cons: Weak Finale

Pros: Great cast
Cons: none that I can think of

My husband and I were watching "Grease" for about the hundredth time in our five years of being together and I thought . "Wow , this would make a great epinion." So here I go. I can say that most of the general population has seen this musical movie...

Pros: A movie that is both musical and funny at the same time.
Cons: None.

The first time watching this movie was when it came out in the summer of 1978 when I went to see it at a local theatre. I really enjoyed watching this movie and the music was soooo awesome!

Olivia Newton-John, John Travolta, and Stockard...
