Review of Footloose (2011) by Leahandnic — 15 Oct 2011
I rarely find a reason to log on and give my opinion about movies. But I was so bored and disappointed by this version of Footloose I had to. I went with my wife, my nieces (11 & 12) and my 8 & 11 year old daughters. I had high hopes. I did not for one second think it would be better than the original which I felt was fun. Well about 20 minutes in I thought I might fall asleep. The same movie but with less dancing, more talking, bland acting and bad music. They added all this rap and made the town dancers look too professional and the girls like Pole dancers. The character of Ren did the same dance over and over and over again. The movie was slow. And too long. And just not fun.
The only improvement I saw was making Ren's uncle a good person instead of the bible thumping jerk in the first. This was a bad remake. And all 6 of us agreed.
