A Million Spoilers!!!

Rating: Null/10 (6 April 2002)

Okay, if you've never seen "Grease", you really have to ask yourself, "Why am I surfing on a movie database when I obviously don't watch movies?" "Grease" is one of those movies, like "Wizard of Oz", "Sound of Music" and "Star Wars" that everyone should have to watch before they watch really any other movies. They should even show them in schools, just as long as they show it before the kids realize what "Grease Lightning" is really about.
Totally off subject, but do you remember seeing this film as a youngster and loving it, and then you decide to watch it when you turn 16 with a group of friends, and you were shocked about some of the things they say & do?
Anyway, back to this review. "Grease" is my favorite musical. (FYI: "Little Shop of Horrors" is a very close second place.)
The Top Ten Reasons why I Think GREASE is the Best Musical:
10. Grease 2: If it weren't for the popularity of "Grease", we wouldn't have "Grease 2" and I probably wouldn't know who Michelle Pfeiffer is.
9. The T-Birds: When I was asked what I wanted to be when I grew up, my three usual answers were "Jedi Knight", "Pittsburgh Steeler" or "T-Bird".
8. Olivia Newton-John
7. Pink Ladies: As the T-Birds were to me, millions of girls made Pink Lady jackets and wear them every Halloween.
6. Grease Lightning: Who wouldn't want a car like this that promises the stuff it promised?
5. Sandy Olsen is HOT!
4. Music: From Frankie Valli singing the theme song, to Sha-Na-Na performing cover tunes, the soundtrack is one of the best.
3. Lorenzo Lamas: Before he was a "renegade", Lorenzo was Tom Chisum, the ultimate jock who's "brains are in his biceps."
2. Danny Zuko: John Travolta was ten times cooler as Danny Zuko than he was as Tony Manero in "Saturday Night Fever" and Vincent Vega in "Pulp Fiction" combined.
And, of course, the number one reason why I love "Grease"... ...Olivia Newton-John as Sandy Olsen: Olivia is the only woman I'd leave my wife for, especially when she's wearing the cheerleading outfit. I know, a lot of guys will say her black outfit at the end is the selling point, but it's the whole innocent factor that I love this woman.
Anyway, there you have it. A totally unbiased review of the greatest musical of our time. Any questions?
