Very entertaining - brings back fond memories of that era. I think I've seen this movie a hundred times. June 4, 2008

rating: 5 QuoteMost gloriously gay movie ever!Quote
This movie is the most magnificently gay movie ever made! To me this movie will always be a happy childhood pleasure that has morphed into a guilty adult pleasure. *NOTES OF INTEREST* In the scene where Samantha is recruiting people for the band, watch her ice cream cone, the flavors swap places at least 3 times. And in the cattle call scene for band talent that is none other than Blackie Lawless of WASP squatting on that piano. Just some fun observations from a life long Village People fan. April 26, 2008

I love steak and I love cupcakes. Can't Stop the Music is a gigantic cupcake and I love it all - especially the cream filling! MMMMmmmmm. March 20, 2008

rating: 5 QuoteG*A*Y*E*S*T MOVIE EVER! It's so bad, it's good...Quote
CAN'T STOP THE MUSIC is such a campy film that it has to be seen to be believed!

Based loosely on the actual events that created the real music group "The Village People," the movie follows a song writer Jack Morell, played by Steve Guttenberg, who puts together a male singing group based on macho male stereotypes.

Anyway, it's a hoot of a movie filled with double-entendres and lots of images of hot athletic men wearing the tightest short-shorts ever! Viewing the movie now it's hard to believe that this was intended for the general public.

The movie includes, what has to be one of the earliest music videos ever, the Village People performing "YMCA" at--where else--the YMCA.

A fun movie to watch, just don't expect "Citizen Kane."

Thank God that era is over! The horribly exaggerated bad acting, the awful clothes and frizzy hair. The dialogue is insane! Everyone in this movie is a dork - goofy, nerdish. Weren't there any decent choreographers in 1979 that could have advised this director? The whole thing is pure torture! March 17, 2008
