But when the two friends scheme to get Janey on television's biggest after-school dance show, they find themselves on a wild adventure filled with cute boys, hot dancing, prudish nuns, mean rich kids, parents that just don't understand, and girls doing what they know best...just having FUN! Shannen Doherty, Jonathan Silverman, and Lee Montgomery co-star in this fun-filled comedy that's totally packed with outrageous '80s fashions, music, dance moves, and more!Sarah Jessica Parker and Helen Hunt dance their way through
Girls Just Want to Have Fun, a glorious example of 1980s kitsch. Janey (Parker), t! he new girl at a Catholic high school in Chicago, dreams of becoming a dancer on
Dance TV. With the help of new wave hipster Lynne (Hunt), Janey enters a dance contest and gets paired with Jeff (Lee Montgomery), a rebel in spandex, and the two are soon smitten with each other. Unfortunately, they've made an enemy of a snooty rich girl, who vows to take them down. Everything about
Girls Just Want to Have Fun is cheap and cheesy--it doesn't even have the Cyndi Lauper version of the title song--but that doesn't make it any less goofily entertaining, particularly when a debutante ball is wrecked by a bizarre combination of punk rockers and female bodybuilders. Featuring a very young Shannen Doherty as Jeff's little sister.
--Bret FetzerIn new york city an estranged couple who witness a murder are relocated to small-town wyoming as part of a witness-protection program. Studio: Sony Pictures Home Ent Release Date: 03/16/2010 Starring: Hugh Grant Ru! n time: 103 minutes Rating: Pg13 Director: Marc LawrenceHugh! Grant a nd Sarah Jessica Parker play an estranged husband and wife, both die-hard New Yorkers; while trying to patch things up, they witness a murder and have to go into witness protection in backwater Wyoming. Encounters with bears, bingo, and rodeo clowns ensue. The fish-out-of-water formula is not particularly inspired, but Grant and Parker are well matched; they're both pros who establish an immediate rapport and comfort with each other, making them persuasive as a married couple who haven't fallen out of love. On top of that, the supporting cast is top-notch: Elisabeth Moss (
Mad Men) as Parker's snippy assistant, Sam Elliott (
Thank You for Smoking) as the Wyoming marshal assigned to protect the neurotic couple, and Mary Steenburgen (
Melvin and Howard) as the marshal's tough-as-nails wife are only the most recognizable of the solid ensemble playing the quirky characters surrounding the feuding romantic leads. Writer-director Marc Lawrence previously directed! Grant to stronger effect in
Music & Lyrics and, in particular,
Two Weeks Notice, in which Grant and Sandra Bullock proved surprisingly sparky.
