5.0 out of 5 stars That's all they really want!, 12 Jan 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Girls Just Want To Have Fun [DVD] [1985] (DVD)
"Getting Into Trouble Is Easy...But getting Out Of It Is All The Fun!"

This movie from the mid-80's at last gets a much deserved re-release on DVD. Starring Helen Hunt, Sarah Jessica Parker & a very young Shannon Doherty, Girls Just Want To Have Fun is comparable to Dirty Dancing (GJWTHF was made 2 years earlier though) and is about 2 teenagers, Janey (Parker) & Lynne (Hunt) who both dream of starring on 'Dance TV' a Chicago music show. It's a sweet, funny, romantic comedy that gets better with every viewing. Helen Hunt steals the show as Lynne!

I won't give away the story but the dancing, romance, nuns, spoilt brats, comedy, music and brilliant one-liners make for great viewing. I love this film and if you like Dirty Dancing, Fame, Flashdance, or romantic comedies you'll love this. It's a fun film & I'll be glad to get it on DVD as my video copy has been watched countless times. A brilliant soundtrack as well, hope this gets re-released as well in time!

5.0 out of 5 stars a childhood fave, 26 Mar 2005
This review is from: Girls Just Want To Have Fun [DVD] [1985] (DVD)
From an early age i've been addicted to videos whether it was 'mannequin' or 'vice versa' and so on. However, it was 'Girls just want to have fun' that became my favourite film, which meant repeated and repeated rental from the video-man. If you enjoy fims with dance such as 'Flashdance' and 'Fame' you are given the bonus of a sweet romance. This film stars the talents of the likes of Sarah Jessica Parker and Helen Hunt pre-fame. It does not pretend to have a great plot yet is highly watchable and contains a good dance routine at the end that so far has only been rivalled by 'Bring it on'. Definitely it is cheesy but sit back and enjoy!

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic!, 13 Jun 2005
By Lana (Coventry, West Midlands United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Girls Just Want To Have Fun - The Movie [VHS] [1985] (VHS Tape)
I wish I could go back in time and hug the video shop man who recommended me this video in 1985 as it is still my absolute favourite today! I bought the sound track too and still love it. The dancing / gymnastics (especially at the end) just give me a chill down my spine. One thing, what happened to the lead male? Never heard of him again.
