Review of Flashdance (1983) by Enrica C — 30 Nov 2012

A movie filled up with cliches, but still a classic that has to be watched at least one in a lifetime. I found "Flashdance" boring, boring and again: boring. I don't really understand how it managed to get into movie history. The plot is so basic, it hasn't got anything to tell the audience, and you're not even able to feel her passion for music or dancing. And what about its runtime? I can barely call it a movie.

Seeing this young girl getting with her boss (a divorced man, 10+ years older than she is) is just lame, disgusting and gives the wrong impression. And how did she manage to be hired for that job? Least but not last, I seriously doubt that somebody would get in a ballet school with no experience at all and with that crap dance.
