Sometimes when people mention "Grease", I mistakenly think that they're talking about Greece.

Rating: 5/10 (26 March 2006)

The plot isn't anything that we haven't seen before - a good girl falls for a greaser - but the energy makes it worthwhile. Maybe the movie is overall kinda hokey (as musicals usually are), but it does have some neat scenes. I certainly get the feeling that John Travolta was getting typecast as a song-and-dance man, given that he had just starred in "Saturday Night Fever" and now "Grease" (and later "Urban Cowboy"). As for Olivia Newton-John, I don't know what she's done since this. Maybe "Grease" is worth seeing once, as a cultural reference.
And yes, sometimes when people mention this movie, I think that they're referring to Greece. The things that we see in life...
