Spidersecu Don't Believe the Hype

TaryBiggBall It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.

Mandeep Tyson The acting in this movie is really good.

Logan By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

preppy-3 Tony Manero (John Travolta) is in his early 20s. He lives in Brooklyn with his parents (who treat him like dirt) and has a dead-end job. He blows off steam every Saturday by going to a disco with his immature buddies. He's also GREAT at dancing. One night there he meets Stephanie (Karen Lynn Gorney) and falls in love. However she's ambitious and is moving forward. He isn't. Can their love survive.This was a HUGE hit in 1977. It made disco popular and made Travolta a star. There's tons of swearing (in the R rated version) but that's how guys that age talk. It moves quickly and has a compelling story. With the exception of Gorney all the acting is good. Travolta is superb! His acting is great and his dancing is beyond belief. Also the soundtrack (primarily by the Bee Gees) is wonderful. It's actually a pretty dark movie but the acting and soundtrack make you forget all that. A true must-see movie.

justkrepper The success of this movie only relays on the performance of John Travolta, and the brilliant Bee Gees's musics. The rest of it, the story, the other characters, and the way of filming, is pretty bad.I haven't decide yet if it's the character Stephanie or the actress who plays her role (Karen Lynn Gorney) that is annoying me, but she really does ! Fortunately the sight of John Travolta dancing on the dance floor (damn he's a really good dancer) help us to forget the global aspect of the movie. At least, Saturday Night Fever gives a sincere vision of what American teens were like in the 80's.

ally The movie Saturday Night Fever is one that I think every movie lover has to watch. If you are not much of a movie person it is probably not for you. I person re liked the film. However, I did find some of the commentary slightly offensive. Specific comments made about African Americans and gay people. There is also a rape scene towards the end. The lack of P.C.ness in this movie strongly reflects the time from which the movie came (1977). Regardless of some of the offensive terminology it is an enjoyable movie! Highly recommend.

nayellibueno This movie has literally changed my life for the better good. I was on the verge of killing myself until i heard the bee-gees sweet nectorous voices. They helped me believe in myself again. The moment I saw John Travolta in his hot little pants it almost stopped my already weak heart. My friends always shoot me down when I talk about the connection Johnny and I have, but it'll never cease our burning passionate love. Its a MUST SEE FLICK. You almost grow up and the movie shows John Travolta become a man and learn to love and older broad. The music really gets my blood pumping. Its the perfect soundtrack to listen to while giving birth or even driving to your orthodontist appointment. I have to find another man who will understand me and will want to dance to this at our wedding.
