Review of Flashdance (1983) by Mike N — 18 Feb 2008

Holy S-word! I actually enjoyed Flashdance! Even though it suffered from a bunch of stuff that usually irks me in other movies (stupid misunderstandings, cliche, unnecessary scenes, cliche, and cliche) I just laughed it all off for some unknown reason.

And by laughing off all of the really cheesy bits, you have yourself one huge laugh-fest, because that's all Flashdance is: cheese. That said, I really did get goosebumps in the final dance performance.

..so it must've done some dramatic things right. And Jennifer Beals is pretty, except for the big hair...
