Grease (DVD, 2002, Widescreen)

This movie is a classic rendition of a long running Broadway play. John Travolta, already a star from Saturday Night Fever, and Olivia Newtown John, who rocketed to music stardom after a string of hits, make this timeless movie a classic forever. They play high school boyfriend-girlfriend in the days of Elvis, when old cars were important to teenage boys, and hair and sleepovers were important to high school girls. It is a trip back in time musically enhanced with lots of famous songs, including the title song, which was written for the movie. Stockard Channing is also great in a supporting role as the leader of the Pink Ladies, a harmless gang other than the gossip they produced. Jeff Conaway, who was in the Broadway cast as John Travolta's part now plays his best friend.

This movie has great songs including "Beauty School Dropout," "You're the One That I Want," and the title song. This movie, being based on the longest running Broadway play, is every bit as good as its origins.

John Travolta and Olivia Newton John made this classic movie a hit not with their acting or storyline but from their music.
The music is by far the best thing about this. The movie itself is more about having sex to please your boyfriend or not than anything else. And Travolta and John are a bit old to be in high school. But the music and the comedy are fantastic. There is not one song that is not enjoyable.
The 1950s look like lots of fun with fast cars and crazy antics.
I've watched this at least 5 times and I would not hesitate to buy it. I would watch it again and again. It's definitely one That I Want!!

This is one of my Wife's Favorite movies. It is a Musical starring a young John Travolta and the Hot Pop star of the time Olivia Newton-John. This is packed with songs you and your kids will sing over and over. My wife still stops everytime this is rerun on TBS or the Like. We wanted to share this with our 8 year old daughter so we bought a copy. Highly recommended!!!

Everyone I know loves Grease. The songs are catchy and I can remember singing them since I was 12 (and I'm 41 now). The movie/musical had stood the test of time as it is still enjoyed by many people today. I bought it for my daughter and she loves singing along with the movie. SHe's about the same age I was when I first saw it.

John Travolta is a favorite of mine. He was charming and Olivia Newton John, sweet.

I fondly remember both Olivia Newton-John and John Travolta in this timeless classic which grabbed my heart back in the late 70's. This movie is easy to watch time and time again and contains fun, musical numbers and lots of actors who went on to become big television and movie stars.

Randal Kleiser helms this musical and his fondness for John Travolta was seen in the earlier "The Boy in the Plastic Bubble" which I also enjoyed tremendously. Kleiser also directed "Honey, I Blew Up The Kid" and later the "Honey, I Shrunk the Audience" short which is playing many times a day at the Universal Studios amusement park ride.

I enjoyed seeing legends such as Eve Arden, Frankie Avalon but also the future stars such as Jeff Conoway who later went on to act in the series "Taxi".

Tons of fun, lots of laughs and plenty of good lessons to be learned from this never-ending-hit.
