I hate this movie, mostly for its timeless quality; the fact that its as ubiquitous and popular now as it was in the late 70's is baffling. And did you know that Stockard Channing was THIRTY-FOUR in that movie? Thirty-four. Playing a high school girl. Oh, and that fucking "Summer Lovin'" song is, at this point, a karaoke standard. Hate it. Hate it all.

Hey you guys. This is just like that one movie, um, John Travolta and that, French chick were doing it, all summer long and went back to school and sang songs about "Greased Lightning."

"Sandy breaks up with John Travolta after he tries to pressure her into sex. For some reason, she immediately regrets this rash decision and sets about remaking herself in the image of the slutty women he seems to prefer. The change includes taking up smoking, changing her mannerisms and even getting rid of her accent."-cracked

A terrible adaptation from stage to film, this bears little resemblance to the tough and fiesty little off-broadway musical on which it is based, even losing some of the best songs in the process. Worse, whenever the show has been revived, it's been revised and sanitized to make it more like this misguided mess of a movie. It's all very sad.

Its a completely artificial version of 50s American, with false nostalgia and 20/30 year old actors playing teenagers, but this artificiality is what entices me about the film. Its a well made musical, with truly memorable songs, a surprisingly adult tone despite its PG rating (the sexual language is rife), and charismatic and talented actors (its amazing to see Travolta dance with skill on screen), made even more interesting as an obviously artificial world than a recreation of the era.

The lasting image of this film for me is Newton-John vamped out, having decided that Travolta's Danny will never love her for who she is. So she gives up her identity (and presumably, her purity) to mollify a guy who only seems to have given up his bad guy image (notice how he tosses that sweater in the final number). Of course, maybe he really is a good guy, but then the movie is just a mess, her transformation completely unnecessary. The songs were fun enough, but that's about it.

One of the greatest musicals of all-time, and the damned thing still holds up after over 20 (OMG!!! 30) years! Olivia Newton-John is adorable as the sweet Australian high school exchange student Sandy, while Travolta is the macho-goof slacker Danny who fell for her during Summer Break. It's pure, naughty fun with good music, and a genuine connection between all of the characters.

An obviously iconic movie with a great soundtrack very good choreography. That being said, the nonexistence of a plot haunts the movie, and it feels like its cultural appeal and significance will wane in time if it hasn't already. It touches important themes but very superficially and ambiguously for modern times.

Alright, but the songs aren't all that strong and the Travolta-Newton-John romance is pretty dull as neither character has much going for them besides their looks. Rizzo and Frenchy are more interesting, and I liked their numbers better. Also, the whole 50s nostalgia thing doesn't really appeal to me, though this film was, for the most part, pretty entertaining.

Grease is a strange movie. Is it a love story? A focus on the life of a group of high school kids? It's a little of both and manages to get all the awkwardness of high school fit into it. The trying to be cool, even if you weren't all that cool, the reputations, all the hormones. Cram that all into a movie with music and you have Grease. The story is a bit all over, and the message (if one?) is a bit garbled. Also what about the car that flies into the sky at the end?
