It's the word, it's the word, it's the word........

Rating: 10/10 (15 May 2011)

Movies that takes place in the day of music and fun only goes so far. In "Grease", this movie is totally filled with classic nostalgia. Based on a hit play, and casted with the best stars, this movie will get you on your feet faster than a drag race on the streets. Olivia Newton-John plays Sandy, a beautiful Aussie chick who meets a greaser named Danny, played by John Travolta(Vinnie Barbarino on "Welcome Back, Kotter"). These two have the funnest summer of their lives, and when that ends, oh well. Or so it is. When it's senior year, Danny gets the shock of his life, Sandy is going to his high school! Now Sandy's the nice girl, and Danny's the bad-boy, who said opposites don't attract? The good part of the movie is when that Danny gets the Greased Lightning to run, and the crew put on the show about it. It's a winner!
The really good part is the music. Everyone was really put it on. With so many stars, and very cool music numbers, no wonder this movie was such a sensation. As The Four Seasons have said it best, "Grease IS the word!" Stockard Channing was great at playing Rizzo, The Pink Ladies and other cliques made the set a fine hit. A classic of 50's nostalgia, "Grease" is a phenomenon! 5 stars!
