the music is great...

Rating: 8/10 (9 January 2004)

So, john travolta plays the incredibly sexy dancer that glides across club floors performing dance moves. the dance moves are all disco, so if you cant handle the disco era, then this movie is not for you. But i never really heard that much until after it ended. so the disco music was ok for me. i wouldnt like it, except (**SPOILER**) when the beginning happens and he walks down the street and the bee gees are playing staying alive. Oh MY god, that is magic. The girl that he tries to dance with really was extremely annoying, since she had huge dreams and couldnt really accomplish them. she uses her dreams to rub in what she supposedly has done, and that makes john think about what should and still could be. after all, he works at the hardware store and blows all his check on the one weekend of dancing disco. he is well known in the club, and is admired by both males and females in the movie. i thought that could have a significant meaning, showing that you can have popularity and a special talent, but you are all alone when you dont have someone special to share with. john really starts to show that he needs someone, and clings to the dancer because she shares the dancing gene, and as well as her being attractive to him. this movie is really, really great, and it really shows that all people have their downfalls and yet still manage to hang on to the disco era. (A- B+)
