Don't You Wish

Rating: 10/10 (23 November 2005)

A really good movie. I have news for the critics who find it childish and adolescent and inane. We are talking the 50s here. What do you want, substance? Relax and enjoy.
John Travolta is at his best. The whole cast is matched and to watch this film brings back memories you never had of high school to start with. Yeah, you wish you did.
I like Grease because it is escapist, as all good movies are. You come away having been away from your daily life. The music is fun, the situations not impossibly like those of that era. Whoever wrote Grease sure was there! There has not been another musical like it, and it is better than just an American Grafetti with dance numbers. It is really more like that time of history than Lucas came up with.
Well worth watching.
