1986 **** 96 mins.
Although it doesn't have the cult-like effect of the original film, this musical remake does have its own good points. One is not likely to soon forget the music, although some of it is a bit stupid at times. No matter how you look at it, this musical is filled with great moments and great comedy.
Rated PG-13 for language and violence.
