Movie Reviews of Hairspray
Movie Review: The more fabulous original version
Summary: 5 Stars
John Waters' original film was the inspiration for the Broadway show and current more elaborate movie, and is a must-see for all Baltimoreans and any Hairspray fans. The plot here is far more complex and gives a more realistic portrayl of race relations and civil rights at the time. The only music featured is the actual hits of the day, and the dance moves are sensational!
This film launched the career of Ricky Lake, who debuted as Tracey here and who has a cameo as a talent scout in the new film.
Movie Review: Better than any remake!
Summary: 5 Stars
I saw this movie on television when I was a child. I loved it then and I love it now. What I don't love is the remake which took all the fun out of the story and made some jokes worse than the original. I had a friend that watched the remake before the original. I told him about how big hollywood had ruined a good thing by remaking the movie. He didn't believe me until I showed him the original. He likes it better than the remake!Movie Review: My friend is a "checker board chick"
Summary: 5 Stars
Ok, I was born in 1980 and I LOVED this movie growin up. I think I probably seen it a thousand times. Now when I watch it, I realize how dirty the parts can be. It is a VERY corny movie, over exagerated, just like all of the great 80's movies are. I was disappointed with the new version of Hairspray. I didn't think it was going to be a musical, this movie is not. It is just fun and brings back memories.. wow, i feel old..Movie Review: Quintessential John Waters
Summary: 5 Stars
I am a big John Water's fan, and this is arguably his best work. What I like about it is that it loses the "obvious" low budget look and feel of his earlier movies, but still keeps the outrageousness that is the heart and soul of John Waters. Hairspray is not quite as polished as Serial Mom (which is fine with me) but instead it's a dirty, dusty, down and dragged out fight with normalicy, whatever the heck that means.Movie Review: Thers only one Edna

This is a great movie it is so sad to know that Glenn Milstead ( A.K.A.
