Go Greased Lighting!

Rating: 8/10 (7 April 2020)

Pros:
1. The film is brimming with well-written, well-sung, and catchy songs. Certain songs such as, 'Summer Nights', 'Greased Lightning', and 'You're the One I Want' became - and still are - classics.
2. The choreography is fantastic, especially in regards to the dance numbers and the car race.
3. The humour lands and stems from genuine high school banter.
4. There is mesmerising chemistry between all of the actors and it really pays-off onscreen.
5. The set and costume design look amazing and they set the 1950's feel superbly.
6. The movie does a great job at highlighting how differently men and women approach love and relationships.
7. Both John Travolta (Danny) and Olivia Newton-John (Sandy) give really good performances.
8. The film leaves you with an appropriate feel-good feeling.
Cons:
1. All of the actors are clearly not in their teens, and it's really distracting.
2. The acting at times is rather over-the-top.
3. Some lines of dialogue have clearly been added post-production.
