Review of Hairspray (2007) by Nelson M — 25 Jun 2012
A more conventional film than the John Waters original, this version still is a lot of fun. The musical track is supurb and all of the acting is great. This movie looked terrible from the trailers but finally seeing it was quite a surprise.
This has a lot of heart and while it delves into overacting, it's more in the style of the original film than anything. While it lacks the comedy the original had going for it, this one makes up for it's energetic spirit and overall fun attitude.
