I know it's a 70's pop movie but I never thought it's a good story of ethics

Rating: 7/10 (27 March 2005)

After hearing a few shares of comments from my mother's stories, I might as well find out why this movie was so popular in the 70's.
Tony Manero (Travolta) is a guy with little but contented wages from a paint store, a dropout of high school with an elder brother who's a priest, always pointed by his parents to be ridiculed, with a group of friends who plays the fun for living, being envied by girls for his savvy looks and poise, but most of all... he loves dancing, even to the point that he makes practicing perfect. Things became different after meeting a matured girl who tells complicated stories about the intelligent world...an opposing thought for a dropout kid.
The movie is full of excellent scores by the BeeGees and some 70's dance fever hits that's famous when you hear this movie title...but what's the best part of it is about Tony Manero's good ethics against a city life obsession. He doesn't cheat much on his things, he even tries to cheer up his brother after giving up priesthood, he tries to control his friends' abusive tendencies, and practices dancing with seriousness. A look of a good ethics for a city kid. I never thought it could be well made for the movie. At least that saves this movie an entertaining piece of video to watch for it...not just for the music grooves.
