A "chick-flick" even my boyfriend liked

comedy fan

Pros

Fun music and dancing, a feel good movie, Very entertaining

NOV

2007

I think my boyfriend initially thought he was doing me a favor by agreeing to go see Hairspray with me. By the end, I don't know who was laughing harder - him or me. Watching John Travolta dressed up in drag, especially in the love scenes with Christopher Walken was hilarious. The singing and dancing was great. Over-all is was a funny, fun, movie. Girls- don't let your men get away with taking credit for watching a chick flick for this one because they'll like it just as much as you do!
