A very NASTY word

Rating: 3/10 (2 October 1998)

I've never been a great fan of musicals and this movie prooves why I won't change my mind. It is always predictable the moment when they start to sing. You hear some music, the actors shut up for a moment, and then.......LaLaLaLa etc. Get a life! I'm trying to watch a movie here and I am not interested in some actors who can't sing! And there is really something wrong with the time-setting, like "early 60's mixed with late 70's". I really can't get that idea out of my head. Also the movie brainwashes you with the US-high school-look so much that you almost forget how it was at your own (non-US) school. The only positive part of this celluloid-rubbish is that I always can be irritated with it. Like you want to listen to Howard Stern because you hate him.
