Not a good movie. How can this one even be nominated for a Golden Globe? Musicals are supposed to be engaging with great music. Not only is this a remake, it also looks like a TV produced movie. JT is at the end of his crappy career.

Great Remake

A campy fun musical with a message of equality. The original hairspray is good, but I think I prefer the remake. John Travolta and Christopher Walken are very funny together. Adam Shankman did a really good job with the movie and it still works now.

You Can't Stop the Beat

I thoroughly enjoyed this movie in every way. I saw the show on stage and didn't think it would do well as a movie [and despite popular belief, the 1988 version wasn't a musical] in its new form. I will say that when I found out that John Travolta was going to be Edna, I kinda made a vomit face [you know the one I mean], but was pleasantly surprised when it all worked out. Adam Shankman is a great director/choreographer and the cast is just pleasant as peach punch and engaging as I'll get out. A great flick to take your chick to.

Phenomenal! Vibrant!

An outstanding movie with the classic Broadway plot! The songs are amazing, the dancing is phenomenal, and the acting is spontaneous. Makes you want to jump up on your feet and start doing all the old dances. It's very colorful and a very nice family flick to watch when you're in a down mood. I recommend this movie to everyone if you haven't seen it already, you need to! Enjoy!
