charles w Very fun movie with good dancing and acting!! Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/23/22 Full Review Anahit C Hairspray has been an absolute classic for teen girls. Even though the movie was made many years before I was even born, I felt like it helped me through the times that the characters went through as well. What I enjoyed about Hairspray is that the movie isn't just romantic or a good feel story, it talks about issues we still face today. Tracy is bold and doesn't let anyone tell her she's too big for her dreams, she is the type of person everyone needs around them. Even if the dialogue happened to be bad (which isn't) the music's catchiness would make up for it. I really enjoy musicals because of Hairspray, it showed me the potential of musicals which I never would have discovered on my own. Hairspray is a celebration of inclusivity, self-love, and shaking up the system with a smile on your face. I wish more movies were like this. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 05/19/25 Full Review Naydelin H The movie was alright. I have watched this one and I have watched the new remake of Hairspray that came out in 2007. I really enjoyed the new remake of the movie instead of the old one. Both movies have the same idea and thing going on. But when you watch this film and you watch the other one you can see a get more of a good vibe to the new one because of how much color was but in the other film. Also, in there is not really any suspense to the movie which made it boring because it. In the other film they had a lot of singing which I really enjoyed and when I would rewatch it that was the suspense, being able to singing along with the people singing. I wouldn't suggest my friends or other watching this film but the other remake of it.  Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 05/19/25 Full Review random u Hairspray was not a bad movie but it’s not something I would choose to watch. I don’t usually go for these types of movies but it definitely brought the energy with its humor and quirky vibe. There’s a lot of catchy songs throughout the movie and lots of different humor so it keeps its energy throughout the whole movie. The movie also had a solid message behind it. The main character is a quirky teen who fights against prejudice to make a difference. This movie had too much music and dancing for my liking. It’s not something I would go for but I can see why it’s a cult classic. If you like watching quirky and high energy movies this is a movie worth watching. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 05/17/25 Full Review Haley R I thoroughly enjoyed watching this movie. What made this movie so memorable to me was the amazing soundtrack and dancing it had. I loved the sixties style of clothing, hair, fashion etc. The musical numbers were very exciting and fun to watch and listen to. The characters were very distinct and unique and I really appreciated that. I also think the movie was very funny and had a lot of silly moments. I like how the movie did not take itself super serious, but it still had important and serious topics that were discussed. The exaggeration of some of the characters and their personalities added to the comedic style of the movie. I would definitely recommend this movie to anyone who likes fun musicals or just anyone in general. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 05/17/25 Full Review Jaqueline V The fun and upbeat movie Hairspray is set in Baltimore in the 1960s. I enjoyed this movie more than I thought I would. This film for sure hits deeper themes of body positivity and racial integration. Throughout the movie I enjoyed the extravagant dances and the fun costumes. In the movie Tracy Turnblad plays a confident, Baltimore teen who aspires to dance on the well-known Corny Collins Show. The film had honestly given me the sense that I was living in that period of time because of how it was filmed and honestly a little nostalgic with the quality of the camera. I liked how at the end she is able to win the dance competition and be able to get the guy as well. It was definitely an uplifting movie.
