It's a perfect recipe for a definitive junk food film;....flaire Allan Carr was responsible for the worst....isolated, contextless emotion, this harmless eight-ton poodle skirt of a film really paved the way for media that sells you your memories.....Daylit scenes fare better than the film's (surprisingly numerous) nighttime sequences, but the more stage-bound and overtly fantasy-oriented.... ...

A pair of memorable musicals starring John Travolta, "Grease" (Paramount, 1978, $39.99) and "Saturday Night Fever" (Paramount, 1977, $39.99), and a delightful Tom Hanks comedy, "Big" (20th Century Fox, 1988, $34.98), top this week's lineup of Blu-ray releases.....Grease" was the top box-office hit of 1978.....Grease" is a nostalgic and energetic look at those high schools days of the 1950s (or at least the way most of us like to visualize them).....Travolta is outstanding as Danny Zucko, complete with leath ...

Grease also succeeds due to its generally solid cast.....The Blu-ray provides very good picture, positive sound with a moderately engaging roster of extras.....I did enjoy the movie more than I expected.....engaging performance that probably remains Grease 's best work.....they tell us how they're happy to be at the reunion and how much they still love the movie..... ...

now American classic 'Grease', I can't believe it's over 30 years old, its seems as fresh to me now as the first time....John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John (together they have a fantastic chemistry) are the summer time sweethearts who hit a rough patch when they are reunited at High School in the fall.....ve Sandy and Travolta, as Danny, gives one of the best performances....My pick for best song from this movie would be 'Hopelessly devoted to you', Newton-John's vocals are sublime.... ...
