Adored this film!

Rating: 9/10 (15 June 2012)

Being younger in age, I saw the remake of this movie before the original. I really enjoyed both versions, but Craig Brewer's modernized film absolutely appealed to a younger generation. This move is what actually pushed me to watch the original. While the 2011 film remained faithful (almost too faithful?) to the original, It spoke to a wide variety of audiences. The talents of Kenny Wormald and Julianne Hough, along with a great cast of actors are to be thanked for that. The remakes of tracks from the '84 film were also a nice touch. Besides, even if this movie was complete garbage, It would have gotten at least a 5/10 because, well....KENNY WORMALD.
