Reviews for Grease
I didn't know that in the 1950's, high schools were populated by 30 year olds who constantly broke into nails-on-a-blackboard musical numbers.

Grease wraps up with a sentimental message extracted from Sandy's saga: if you want to make friends, take up smoking and dress like a hooker. Now, that's family values.

Annoying film version of the play, which was annoying enough.

I’m not saying that fans should avoid this DVD (as if I could even talk you out of it), but considering the movie - this DVD should be a hell of a lot better.

Grease" hasn't improved much in two decades. It remains a juvenile remembrance of a mythologized '50s, a musical lacking grace.

Imaginatively campy, kind of goofy, but always energetic and fun.

It's worth the price of admission just to see John Travolta swing his hips in the carnival Shake Shack.

It's nostalgic to recall how good a dancer Travolta was, and it's sad to think of what could have been had not a few missteps sidetracked his career.

Clunky kitsch quality that makes Grease such a perpetual joy.

Too pure to be pink.

The friskiness of the performers, the choreography by Patricia Birch and most of all Travolta's phenomenal charm give it its value.

Top CriticSomehow now the energy seems infectiously giddier, the songs zingier, the camp higher.
