Wonderfully entertaining. I would recommend this movie to anyone who likes music and old time entertainment. Nothing bad to say at all. I'm buying a copy for my parents.
This new twist to the cult classic Hairspray is phenominal. All the actor bring something new to an ongoing idea of equality. Whether its fat or skinny, black or white, it puts the message out there that it doesn't matter what you look like, you can achieve anything you put your mind to. And sometimes you have to go against all odds to make your dreams come true. John Travolta and Queen Latifa are absolutely fabulous in this movie.
I bought this as a Christmas gift after taking my friends to see this on broadway and they loved the movie just as much as the play. I have seen the original, the broadway play, and now the movie and I must say I am not disappointed but any means with the movie. It funny, its fresh, and its great.
This movie is a good movie. if you like singing that is.My whole family liked it. can not wait to see it again. Your kids like hsm. they will like this movie
Yes, I got this one the day it came out and I never had to leave home. That weekend I watched this movie with everyone that stopped by. I have not laughed this hard in years. The best part was I could watch it with everyone it was clean and funny. No shock treatments or nudity, just great acting & writing.
This is a very good and fun remake. The songs are pitch perfect. Good Morning Baltimore anyone??
I had such a fondness for the original cast though. I have a tough time not trying to think about them. Mink Stole, Ricki Lake, Sunny Bono, and of course DIVINE!!
I think this is a fun film. It has been made a little more tame than anything Waters would have ever done, but that's alright.
It's solid and good fun, but I still recommend the original!
