One of the most iconic musicals of all time

Rating: 7/10 (17 July 2014)

Let me start by saying that I do not normally like musicals, in fact with Grease being a musical it put me off watching it until i was well into my 20's. Having watched it last night I can only say that I am disappointed that I didn't see it sooner.
Plenty of iconic songs, superb dancing & choreography and an incredible cast.
The story is simple and has the classic high school love story vibe, Boy and Girl like each other & boy doesn't want to admit to his friends that he is in love.
1) The music Everybody knows the main Grease songs such as Summer Lovin', Grease lightning and The one that I want. But believe me, there are many more fantastic songs that just those 3, there are maybe 10-12 songs over the duration of the movie and every single one fits perfect to the picture.
2)Dancing & Choreography What can I say about John Travolta, it really surprised me how much of a great dancer he was. The whole cast put in great performances and the stages/scenes are created perfectly offering really interesting and sometimes outrageous dance scenes.
3) The Cast John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John are fantastic as leads in this movie, I couldn't fault them one bit. There on screen chemistry, especially when dancing is perfect. The supporting cast do their job and bring depth and excitement to the scenes.
Overall i was thoroughly impressed with Grease, I went into it not expecting much as I said before, I don't usually like musicals. I would recommend this film to anyone looking for an easy watching, feel good film with a great soundtrack!
