Product Description
From Amazon.com
Sarah Jessica Parker and Helen Hunt dance their way through Girls Just Want to Have Fun, a glorious example of 1980s kitsch. Janey (Parker), the 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 Fetzer

Slumber party, here we come...,
By Caroline Boyes (Sheppard AFB, TX USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Girls Just Want To Have Fun (Widescreen/Full Screen) (DVD)
I went to Catholic school for eight years, and every time I had a slumber party, this movie was a MUST! So Janey and Lynne are naive; so was I when I was in school (yes, that naive). It's hilarious to watch this now and see how totally involved they were talking about a couple of dancers french kissing. That was exactly how we felt in school. As for someone saying that there were MTV references, no there weren't! In the eighties, there were dance shows like Solid Gold and Dance Fever. I especially love seeing Richard Blade, one of my favorite L.A. DJ's. This movie is cheesey, but still a good time!

the Epitome of the 80s!,
By Krissy (Durham, NC USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Girls Just Want to Have Fun (VHS Tape)
I love this movie! I've watched this countless times since I was 5 years old, and I'm 22... can't imagine NOT watching it. The music, the dancing, the attitudes, and the clothing are everything the 80s are about. I now own it on DVD, and it's still as great as ever. As an avid fan of Sarah Jessica's "S&C"--she still HUGS THE SAME (and is as sweet then as now)!! really-- check it out sometime. If you LOVED Dirty Dancing-- YOU've got to watch this movie-- I think this came out before it and it is so much alike. Definitely recommend watching, buying, owning, and loving this movie... what girl (or even guy) DIDN't want to be on DanceTV???? <<grin>> :) And don't we all just wanna have fun!!!!!
