Hairspray 2007

Its a very cute movie. A musical about integration in 1960's america and accepting differences. The main heroine is a short, fat but cute tracy who loves dancing and the corny collins show. Its a dance show sponsored by a hairspray company. Then the usual bitchy counterparts and songs and dances and all...and ofcourse John Travolta in a dress to spoil it all. I hated him, the girl playing Tracy was great and so were the other characters including Michelle Pfiefer,Christopher Walken and Amanda Bynes,but Travolta was an uncomfortable misfit. Queen Latifah does what she does best but could have been a little better (the smiles didnt actually reach her eyes.) The songs are nice although some are a bit too long and the dances (very very) energetic. helped me spend a very very boring afternoon in office.

8/10
