What a feeling

Rating: Null/10 (6 August 2003)

If a movie representing the 80's could be put in a time capsule, it would have to be Flashdance. Sure, the plot is wafer thin. It was obvious that a double did most of the dancing, especially the final scene (the camera could have been pulled back more, it's pretty certain your not seeing Ms. Beals). But the overall heart of the story is good. Go for your passion, make it happen, what a feeling, etc. This movie makes you feel good and want to pursue your goals in life. The title song by Irene Cara is one of the most infectious theme songs of film. The fashions, hairstyles, and mannerisms all scream "80's!" One of the first movies styled from MTV.
