Review of Xanadu (1980) by Arielle 'Bella' C — 24 Jun 2007

Xanadu is one of those films that, despite all of the naysayers and evidence of a bad movie against it, still manages to work its magic on me, every time I view it, I never fail to be thoroughly captivated and entertained.

Xanadu is quite possibly one of the most underrated and overly-maligned of the films to stem from the disco era. the film is just plain fun, pleasant, gutsy and if you are on the right wavelength, will fill you with a sense of inspiration and magic as well. If you have even an ounce of the sappy romantic in you, I wholeheartedly recommend Xanadu. Just remember to wear shades and ask for the brown bag at the video store.
