Sinossi:
Sixteen years after the release of the original film, New Line Cinema is bringing a feature film adaptation of the Tony award-winning Broadway production Hairspray to life. Featuring new and original material based on John Waters' 1988 cult classic about star-struck teenagers on a local Baltimore dance show. The movie has been shot entirely in Toronto, Canada.
Commento critico (a cura di MARTA SBRANA, Canada)
After 30 years John Travolta is back in a musical, and definitely in a new set of clothes. This time Travoltaâs character is a very big mom named Edna Turnblad, a sweet lady of the 60s. Itâs 1962 in Baltimore and you, that you are sitting in the movie theatre are hit by the sound, the beat and rhythm of the most amazing musical after âGreaseâ. Yes! The big era of musical is back on the silver screen with this new version of âHairsprayâ and Travolta is among the cast. Heâs incredible with his foam, curvy female suite, he still got it after all this years and this movie is a mile stone because is seems that Travolta is giving the baton to the new John Travolta of this generation: Zac Efron, the new star born thanks to a Disney musical, very popular among the girls of all ages. âHairsprayâ |
is the perfect result of a well balance addition : âGreaseâ + âWest Side Storyâ. âHairsprayâ is not just a musical, it has its own moral, its own message to carry to the audience and this makes it the perfect mix for a big success. The cast is an all star. All of them with a singing, dancing career on the shoulders besides the brand new star Nikki Blonsky (Tracy Turnblad ) whoâs introduced thanks to this movie and she is going to have an amazing career as singer, she has a strong, crystal clear voice that one few can have and she has her role down to perfection. The chemistry spread by the old foxes in the movie is just unique: Queen Latifah (Motormouth Maybelle) is heartbreaking in the scene when she sings âI Know Where Iâve Beenâ and she glows of her own beauty; see Michelle Pfeiffer (Velma |
Von Tussle) in this role brings back memories like âGrease 2â she sings, dances and she is gorgeous as she can be. Watching Christopher Walken (Wilbur Turnblad) plays husband to Travoltaâs character you can just imagine the fun they had shooting those scene, specially the wonderful duet â(You Are) Timeless To Meâ where the dance together and we can appreciate the grace and professionalism of both. The soundtrack is a constant beat, rhythm and powerful music, I dare you to sit still on your chair⌠I couldnât!!!
