Review of hairspray a film about dancing and racism


Hairspray AKA Oscar bait (2007)


-so this film is about a fat girl

-who dreams about getting dicked by zack efron

-and in the process she instigates the civil rights movement

-and her mother is played by john travolta in a fat suit

-and it's fucking disgusting

-and her father is christopher walken

-whos pretty cool tbh

-so anyway this film is extraordinarily gay

-not that there's anything wrong with that

-but its like really fucking gay

-and there's not a single gay man in it

-its just the delusional fantasy of a fatty

-set to a soundtrack that goes on for 2 hours

-and there's like 1 good song

-and by good i mean not as bad as the others

-and john travolta's in a wig man

-and a fat suit

-and its fucking disgusting

-just creepy as fuck tbh

-and christopher walken has to like finger her y'know?

-not on camera

-but your mind wanders

-y'know there's only so many times

-you can watch a fat girl

-stumble around attempting to dance

-before your mind wanders to the image of christopher walken

-finger blasting john travolta in a wig

-but knowing john travolta

-its probably not the first time lol

-god he's a creepy fucker aint he

-so yeah fatty solves the civil rights crises

-and gets dicked by zack efron

-and spends the 2 hour length of the film dancing

-and yet miraculously

-doesn't lose a single pound

-the magic of hollywood?

-or doughnuts?

6/10

The lyrics from Good Morning Baltimore confirm it:

Oh, oh, oh, look at my hair
What 'do can compare with mine today?
Oh, oh, oh, I've got my hairspray and radio
I'm ready to go
The rats on the street
All dance round my feet

I’m straight and I love this movie. There’s a lot of subtle humor that just cracks me up, in particular about race. The dance seaweed does in detention is hilarious. Coming from Africa I’m not sure if he was serious or if that was just exaggerating but I laughed through out the movie. Some of the music is funky as hell.
Give this movie a chance and get yo groove on. 8/10
