Vibrant reminder of what musicals are about

Rating: 9/10 (25 January 2005)

Yes it may be cheesy, yes it may be predictable. But it's a feel-good film, as most musicals are. There are not many musicals that don't have a happy ending of some sort and boy this has the mother of happy endings.
With quality songs and stunning choreography throughout, Grease is full of style, culminating in the finale which as i said - is happy ending mode on speed.
With two of the best songs - "You're the one that I want" and "we go together" back to back with some stunning choreography and a real sense of chemistry between the energetic players, the ending leaves you feeling good - the happy gas is so strong it even makes the car fly into the sunset at the end! It's a classic example of the feel-good musical, which is why people love it so much.
