Great movie, and LOVED her sweatshirt!!

This movie was a hit. Im just not a drama fan.

awesome movie...i'm not gay but thats one sexy bitch

VEIWED:1,085 TIMES.

great movie, bad memories

was not allowed to watch it

Rubbish premise. Great music and dancing.

Nah

Utter drivel and garbage that would have been immensely improved by more tits and ass.

CLassic 80's movie. it was good of course. but very predictable to me.

great dance movie!!

Y-A-W-N----

I remember getting in trouble for cutting out the collar in one of my sweatshirts cause I wanted to be her...

Good movie but I hate Kevin Bacon.

Wait. He's not in this? Oh.

What a feelin

only saw parts of it

great movie! I cut so many of my sweatshirts to look like hers!

what

Ok, a welder....I am in construction and at the time it sounded reasonable but really???

Eh, it is the whole musical thing.

i vaguely remember it but some parts do stick out.

Good movie and made stippers happy

the lobster sceen and the lesson in how to take off your bra from under your hsirt are invaluable

Ya know, I don't believe I have actually seen this movie

A welder by day...ahahahahahaha

what a feeling......

the sweatshirt!!!!

I remember less about the movie and more about singing "What a Feeling" in seventh grade choir. (And suddenly, I'm embarrassed to admit that I was in seventh grade choir.)

Watched it...but not my thing

Trite rags to riches dance story that could have been improved with a little nudity.

Yeah a welder by day and a dancer by night. Sure!

I loved this movie

This is not a movie I would have seen on my own, but at the time I was working for a freelance mover whose young daughter enjoyed dancing and wanted to see it. He invited me along and, given that he was my boss, I figured it would be in my best interests to accept. I remember the movie as being pretty ridiculous, which I kind of expected; aspiring pretty dancer in Pittsburgh works in a steel mill during the day and a strip club at night. Wow, how incongruous! In the one scene I sort of remember, she's "dancing" at the strip club, where I think she was supposed to be the featured performer. Does she slither about a pole like Elizabeth Berkley? Does she sidle seductively up to a drunken ringside patron to relieve him of the few dollars he'd otherwise be spending on drinks? No; she sits on a straightback chair, a bucket of water is poured over her, and she pounds on the resultant puddles in time to the throbbing (and annoying) disco music. Now...I've never been one to patronize strip clubs, but on one or 2 occasions (a friend was getting married the next day, bachelor party, etc.), I was importuned into going...and all I can tell you is that any stripper utlilizing such a lame act in any of the clubs I was unfortunate enough to find  myself in would have been unceremoniously boo'ed off the stage, out of the club, and probably out of the city. In the unreality of "Flashdance", such an insipid, unerotic "act" improbably wins the steelworker/stripper great acclaim. Yeah, sure. I also remember that the soundtrack was uniformly horrible, I left the theatre with a pounding migraine, and the leading man had an unsettling physical resemblance to Chico Marx. On a positive note, my boss' 10-year old daughter loved the movie. Then again, she liked the Smurfs too.

Is this what happens when you dance and your pants split out in the rear?

Loved this movie. It had some very stupid parts but the over all story was good...and hey gotta love a girl who names her dog Grunt!

Gag me! In confession, "Oh father, I've been thinking about sex again." Then a half hour later in the film, "I f---ked his brains out." Yeah.

ya whatever

I must agree, this movie had a whole bunch of great music, but the talent just wasn't up to par as far as acting goes.....

Acting was terrible...but at least the music was half-way decent

Stupid, vapid concept with a 25 cent script, lame acting, aimless direction, frenetic and visually unappealling dancing, and a score that sounds as dated as a Bee Gees record. They even used a body double for J. Beals' tushy scenes.

Flashdance is one extremly trashy musical, but it's soundtrack saves it from being a total loss. An inspiring dancer meets a man who teaches her how to dance, but she finds herself in a nutshell when she finds how she and him have come to fall in love, and pay more attention to making love then dancing. It's as bad as it sounds, even worse, but the soundtrack holds everything together until the end.

Annoying songs, and worse acting.

Who can forget this hit movie! Great movie.
