Summary: Yer yer yer Grease
Comment: This film took me back to being a child - I remember having the album and going to see it at the pictures. I bought it for my daughter who is 8 thinking she might like it. She loves it to bits and would watch it every night if she could. I too enjoyed watching it again. The songs are catchy and the dance routines are fab. Definately deserves its place in the top 100.I would say to those miserable people who have given it a bad review - if you hated it that much you should have stopped watching! Get a life!

Summary: GET THE GEL OUT
Comment: I can't believe you haven't seen Grease!! A classic you can watch time after time and enjoy it every time. A fresh faced duo of John Travolta and Olivia Newton John will have your feet tapping throughout.
In a violent, bloodthirsty world this is escapism for all. Enjoy

Summary: Grease, simply the best musical in the world
Comment: I recently purchased grease in the summer because i always wanted to have my own copy on DVD. When it arrived i watched it straight away. i love all the songs but my favourite is the song "We go together" i love this song and i'm always singing it. The whole story of grease is totally amazing and i love Danny Zuko because he is soooo funny and i love Marty from the pink ladies. my favourite scene is the dancing competition because i love all the dance moves. i would watch it everyday if i could but i'm back at college so i can't.

The sogns are addictive, you will end up singing them for days afterwards, but thats fun!

Summary: An enduring classic
Comment: The film that turned John Travolta from a superstar into a megastar... Grease is also the first album I ever bought and the first film I saw at the cinema, so this film is about more than music and dancing, it's nostalgia. Strangely, nostalgia was one of the overriding factors in its success - it was a fond look back at the 50's from the 70's, deliberately using older actors so that older viewers would be able to relate. And this is the strange thing - the film actually has some quite 'adult' content and themes, yet was considered a family film. As a child I didn't quite get all the references but even I sussed there was something fishy going on with that hotdog bun and something a little 'adult' about going to 'flog your log'. John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John are the perfect foils for each other and the rest of the gang are not 'filler' they are all distinctive and handled with affection. The songs are legendary and will likely outlast all of us. John Travolta and the Bee Gees could do no wrong back then - and unless you were there it's hard to imagine just how huge they were and just how vicious the backlash against them was. Grease tackles age-old themes: virginity, peer pressure, teenage pregnancy, image, the school dance and the trials and tribulations of High School. Everyone can relate to it in some way, and even if you couldn't, it would still likely get your foot-tapping. You really should have this in your collection.
