- mamma welcome to the 60s!
this film is brilliant,not quiet as high budget as the 2007 one but it is still very well made.rikki lake plays tracy turnblad very well and divine as tracys mum is sooooooooooo funny.i only wish the film had songs like in a musical that would really make it "the Bug!".

- Disappointed - Tries too hard
I was expecting really good things of this movie based on its reputation. No doubt the stage show works really well; the potential is clearly there. For me, John Waters messes this up by taking a gross and crude approach of self-parody and ridicule which for me served both to make it less funny and to reduce the impact of the racisim / sizism / corruption message. Subtly camp would have been much sharper, I feel. The pace falls flat, much of it is dull even with the spectacle of Divine the good ... Read More

- Out with the new.
It takes some guts to attempt remake a classic; but the original is nearly always the best. Hairspray is a prime example. John Walter's original version has a true depth and charm that will hold its own against any comedy. And thanks to the remake, the original is once again taking centre stage in people's hearts.

Rating: - Cult Movie of the 80's set in the 60's
Knowing that John Waters likes to make outrageous movies, "Hairspray" is an easy introduction to his movies. It portrays chubby teenager Tracy Turnbald (Ricki Lake) trying to help bring about integration in 1962 Baltimore, all in the context of hairstyles. Watching the movie, one gets the feeling that Waters long had a thing for beehive hairdos - I mean, look at Velma Von Tussle's (Deborah Harry). But overall, it's the sort of movie that you really wish that you could experience, especially when Penny's ... Read More
Rating: - Good, satirical fun
I bought this on the strength on a friends reccomendation after watching cry baby. It's a fun film to watch on a day off, but I couldn't say it's the greatest film I've ever seen. In places the acting was stilted, but after watching cry baby I assume that is the directors style. It's very intelligent in places, and it makes no bones about how stupid racism is and how ridiculous segregation was. All in all, a fun and slightly thought-provoking film, with enough grim humour and grotesque moments to keep me ... Read More
