Huisia!!! Leffan kansikuva oli kuin suoraan Rambosta, mutta niin oli myös lopun tanssiesitys! Ehkä siksi ei ollutkaan suuren suuri yllätys, että ohjaajaksi paljastui itse Sylvester Stallone.

Ehkä siksi ei ollutkaan suuren suuri yllätys, että ohjaajaksi paljastui itse Sylvester Stallone. Tavallaan tekisi mieli antaa enemmänkin tähtiä Travoltan huikeasta tanssisuorituksesta, mutta tyydyttäköön nyt neljään tähteen.
one of the worst best movies of all time. Poor John Travolta - He is so coked up it is a tour de force performance... in a loin cloth. Absolutely incredible.
I'm a sucker for a dance movie, not matter how over the top they are - and do they come any other way. The slim, awkward and ridiculous storyline is only endurable because of the dancing. Watch for the totally 80's fashion, the hair as a character ... (read more) I'm a sucker for a dance movie, not matter how over the top they are - and do they come any other way. The slim, awkward and ridiculous storyline is only endurable because of the dancing. Watch for the totally 80's fashion, the hair as a character and how skinny everyone is because they used actual dancers and nobody had implants. And take the time to check out Travola's stems - they were something.
Est-ce que c'est censé être un classique ? Bref, le film vaut la peine pour le corps de Travolta et sa danse, sinon...bof stallone...
Notorious sequel to Saturday Night Fever, and for good reason. There really isn't a lot going for Staying Alive - minimal, dull plot (John Travolta's Tony Manero trying to make it on Broadway with a love triangle thrown in) and the classic 70's disco...

There really isn't a lot going for Staying Alive - minimal, dull plot (John Travolta's Tony Manero trying to make it on Broadway with a love triangle thrown in) and the classic 70's disco replaced by generic, overblown 80's pop. Worth watching for the priceless 80's fashions of the time, the hilarious homoeroticism (an oiled up Travolta rocking a headband and a loincloth being the obvious primary example) and just the sheer novelty that the film is directed, produced and co-written by a certain Sylvester Stallone, but little else.
Så denne på Colosseum i 1984, husker den ikke som en spesielt god film, men mange pene menensker er med
I love this movie. Travolta's in the best shape of his life in this proving he's "far from over". To many, it's sacrilege to say I like this better than Saturday Night Fever, however, I do (and it's still not as nuts as those loonies who like Grease ... (read more) I love this movie. Travolta's in the best shape of his life in this proving he's "far from over". To many, it's sacrilege to say I like this better than Saturday Night Fever, however, I do (and it's still not as nuts as those loonies who like Grease 2 more than Grease, you people are certifiable). There's strong dancing, awesome costumes, romance, comedy, the brilliant song-stylings of Frank Stallone (not kidding) and strutting like there's no tomorrow. So, if you want to know why they picked Stan's Alley for the name of the fake movie in Tropic Thunder, watch this movie immediately.
we probably see more close-ups of Travolta's crotch in 90 minutes than Kelly Preston has in their entire marriage
So bad it's excellent! So this after a break up. She was history after this!
wow, i had no idea John Travolta could dance so well like that!!! to appreciate those professional dancers performance already worth 4 stars!
