This is a classic case of style over substance; for the first 20 minutes at least it does everything right but the film then veers into a series of tedious MTV style video sequences and in the process forgets to tell a story.

Even though Jennifer Beals is not a trained dancer and the main dance, that wins the audition towards the end of the story, is made up of several different dancers, it is so well orchestrated and choreographed, you cannot tell that it is not her good self!

Fun feel good movie. They still say "when Alex was dancing" .....instead of the real person who danced Not a brilliant transfer but marginally better than my DVD, picture quality still a bit grainy but that may be intentional as it adds to the artistic feel.
When someone my age tells me they've never heard of it, I'm a bit shocked and convince them to go see it.

msn back to msn ... 1983.

The protagonist is annoying and unlikable. I remember seeing this movie and being amazed by it. What a feeling! Plot is non-existent. Still highly recommended.

R 1 hr 35 min Apr 14th, 1983 Romance, Drama The popular 1980s dance movie that depicts the life of an exotic dancer with a side job as a welder whose true desire is to get into ballet school. A city teenager moves to a small town where rock music and dancing have been banned, and his rebellious spirit shakes up the populace. A woman becomes involved with a man she barely knows.

Don't look for Oscar winning material. Remember watching this years ago and wanted to revisit some very happy memories.

Just sex, bad dancing, sex, bad dancing .... ad nauseam. Nearly plotless with bad 80's dancing, a soundtrack full of duds, a body double dancer that they don't even try to hide their face and is clearly not the lead actress and a simply boring story that just kind of meanders around for 90 minutes. Great film to earmark the 80s.Looking for some great streaming picks? Flahdance is a very retro, cheesy entertaining film that is at no point boring and never drags, and is also a very clear symbol of the great 1980s and the night club exotic dancing scene of the time. It is so bad.
