This was a wonderful on screen adaptation of the broadway musical. The music is upbeat, the cast is expertly put together and it delivered laugh after laugh. John Travolta, Christopher Walken and Michelle Pfeiffer no doubt stole the show. They made their supporting characters shine. If you have seen the actual broadway production be prepared for a few changes. There were some pretty big scenes cut from the film, but they pulled it together rather nicely. The only real problem I had with this movie was the obvious contractual extra song they threw in for Queen Latifa that was thrown into the middle of a set of upbeat songs and brought the movie down with it's slow and depressing mood. All in all, this is a great movie!
