A great idea, but that's about it.

Rating: Null/10 (20 September 1998)

54 is a movie depicting the life of workers and patrons of the legendary studio 54 in New York. It revolves around a young man named Shane, a suburbanite from New Jersey who dreams of the big city. Upon finding out a local-girl-hit-big soap starlet hangs at Studio 54, an upscale club in New York, Shane and his friends decide to give 54 a visit. Anyhow, to make a long story short, Shane becomes an employee, 54 closes, Shane comes back for a visit.. thats about it. The movie repeatedly shows scenes of drugs being exchanged at the cafe table between Shane & friends. Women having sex with Shane. . The movie was too rushed... like the director just wanted to get the whole thing over with. Hell, the end was a music video for the theme song. For a better modern look into the 70's I'd suggest "Boogie Nights". Studio 54 seemed like a whole bunch of 90's folks in 70's clothing.
