Hairspray

Caught "Hairspray" with my sister two Saturdays ago and personally it was the best movie i had seen for the year (yes.... it won Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, hands down) =P The music was fantastic and it was so joyous and "dancy" that it made me feel like standing up and shaking to the music.... I thoroughly enjoyed the show... my personal fave track was the tune "You are Timeless to Me" by Christopher Walken and John Travolta.... really love the jazzy tune to it....

James Marsden did surprised me with his good singing vocals and he perfectly carried off the slick personality of "Corny Collin" ... great performance.... Nikki Blonsky also wowed the audience with her great singing vocals and the cute Zac Efron was just perfect for the role Linc... =P

But amidst all the joyous singing and dancing, there was an underlying theme of the issue racial discrimination, which perhaps was quite serious in the 60s... though the background and backdrop are different but you can help but pause and ponder over it......

But on the whole, it was a great movie adaption, which was based on the adaption of a Broadway musical....

Three thumbs up =P
