The music is on his side.

Janet Maslin · The New York Times 50.00/100.00

Christopher Penn very nearly steals the movie as Ren's hayseed friend, and the two share a musical scene (to Deniece Williams's ''Let's Hear It for the Boy'') that's almost as sensational as the opening credits.

NidomeAoki 5.00/5.00

天哪😭😭😭居然意料之外是好合适pride month看的电影!We dance to celebrate💃🕺从council meeting那里开始泪目,到后面父母在外面要舞起来那里要哭死(T ^ T) 就同样困在压抑小地方想要逃离,一群年轻人聚一块争取自己权益各种好能共情。女主整个太帅了,砸车那里简直一些侠女风范。跳舞部分再多一些就好了,但培根叔居然这么能跳!然后演员也太多惊喜了吧!特别还有Dianne Wiest和欲望都市的Carrie救命跳起来那里想到Glee客串那段哈哈哈。然后Footloose和Holding Out for a Hero这两首歌是这电影的【原】声🙀🙀天哪。感觉整体要比breakfast club好🥹(5刀imagine真的救人一生😭

Dave Kehr · Chicago Reader 70.00/100.00

The musical sequences are good enough that they make you wish Ross had been willing to leave the surface realism behind and break out into the high stylization and exuberance of the genre's classic days. Despite the hesitations, it's miles above "Flashdance" in technique and intelligence.
