Grease Storyline

During a visit to America, Australian Sandy Olsson (Olivia Newton-John) meets Danny Zuko (John Travolta) at the beach and falls in love. She is heartbroken when summer ends and she has to return home and their last kiss on the beach is a very emotional one. But fate lends a hand – her parents decide to stay in America and she finds herself attending the same school as Danny. But Danny at school is different from Danny at the beach. He is the leader of the T-Birds, a black leather-clad gang, and has a reputation to keep up. He can’t be seen to fall in love with just one chick. Sandy is upset and seeks solace with some new friends she has made – a girls’ club called “The Pink Ladies”. But her prim and proper virginal ways do not fit in and she soon finds herself almost alone. A change must be made. Does she attempt to get her man by turning him into a jock? Or must she get rid of her “Sandra Dee” image?

Grease Movie Reviews

Energetic, good spirited nostalgic fun!

I will admit I didn’t like “Grease” very much at one point, but like some other musicals, it has grown on me. It is just a fun film, yes with some corny dialogue and some slow moments, but the performances, choreography and songs more than make up for any misgivings. I like how “Grease” is filmed, the cinematography is smooth, and the costumes are lovely to look at. The script has some nice raunchy humour, if a little corny at times. Also there is a nice compelling story in general, even if it is slow in spots. The performances are of high energy. John Travolta, is it just me or wasn’t he really sexy here? I thought Tim Curry was sexy in “Rocky Horror Picture Show” but Travolta’s Danny who swivels his hips like Elvis brings a different kind of sexiness as well as acting like a tough kid, which he isn’t really. Olivia Newton-John, dressed in whites and creams looks beautiful and is appealing as Sandy, she is almost unrecognisable in the final musical number. Stockard Channing provides a voluptuous contrast as Betty Rizzo, and does it with swagger. What makes this movie enjoyable are the song and dance numbers. I wasn’t keen on the songs when I first saw the film seven years ago, but as I have been re watching the film over the years, like the film they have really grown on me. “Summer Nights”, “Hopelessly Devoted to You”, “Grease Lightening” and “We Go Together” are classics. Overall, this film is fun, you mayn’t like it first time, but if you give it another chance it could well grow on you. 8/10 Bethany Cox

Good singalong

The perennial favourite. I like some of the songs, what can I say? A good ’50s throwback with Travolta even slicker than he was in SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER. Less a film than some enthuasistic songs joined by a bit of plot.

Loads of fun, and lots of joy

Greaser Danny Zuko (John Travolta) returns from a summer of love with sweet girl Sandy Olsen (Olivia Newton-John). Instead of going back to Australia, she ends up in the same school as him. Danny is the leader of the T-Birds while Sandy joins up with the Pink Ladies. Danny can’t quite bring himself to show his soft side in front of all the guys.

This is a fun musical above all else. The music is infectious. Olivia Newton-John is wonderful singer, and actually quite a lovely actress. John Travolta is a good song and dance man. Some of the actors are pushing the age limit like Stockard Channing, but none of it matters as much the joy of this movie.
