Grease 2 (1982)

Really Bad..

This movie is so bad but I love it! I hate to admit that I am the first person singing "Cool Rider". Maxwell Caufield is original eye candy! Guy is so gorgeous that I couldn't figure out Michelle's problem..Any way, some of the musical numbers leave me speechless because they are so bad.. Like the bomb shelter song...OMG, it was awful! But that Max and Michelle-I love you, guys. July 19, 2008

It's Predecessor is what Kills it, cause Grease 2 does have Heart

Now let's get right to the point: the problem with Grease 2 is the succes of it's predecessor. Grease was a fun film that captured the hearts of many moviegoers back in the 70's and still captures a lot of hearts today.
Grease 2 is without the first one's stars, but introduces the audience to new faces. Now this element is what people didn't like.

Michelle Pfeiffer and Maxwell Caulfield were given the hard task to fill the shoes of Travolta and Newton John. They do this with great charm, are easily liked and form the true beating heart of the film. Pfeiffer does a good job as the pink lady Stephanie in one of her first big movies. She also sings her own songs, with succes.
Caulfield plays Sandy's (Yes, the Sandy from the first one) cousin who comes to Rydell High School to find himself falling in love with a girl that is ungettable in his position. Just like Pfeiffer, Caulfield's way of acting and the fun he brings to the role make this film enjoyable.
As head of the T-birds the cool Adrian Zmed was given the part and gives a fun and cool performance. He clearly had a great time on set while filming.
The film has a lot of fun new songs which are well written and have the quality to get stuck in your head.

Grease 2 may not be as good as it's predecessor: it is a fun ride that shows the magic of the movie musical.
So, try to forget the first Grease movie for a while and look at it as a standalone film. Cause then you'll see that the charm, the music and the actors bring to life a film that is definitely worth the watch.
Grease 2 has begun to become more popular as time goes by. A lot of people finally start to see what this movie is all about: Fun! February 23, 2008

This movie makes suicide look appealing.

Id rather get terminal cancer then have my eyes cross this abortion of a film. I dont know if you can give fewer than 1 star but please know that if I had a time machine i would go back and brutally murder this writer/director. Ive never hated anything more......EVER! February 22, 2008

I'll Be Your Girl For ALL Seasons!

What can you say about this movie that hasn't already been said? I LOVE this movie. It's definitely a Guilty pleasure of mine. I watch the first one and well...you just want to watch this one after.

It an overall feel good movie, campy fun with laughter and tears. You get a little bit of everything in this movie.

Not much like the first, some of the same characters, but still that same feeling of high school back when! And it has Michelle Pfeiffer in it in one of her earliest roles! She does a tremendous job!

A great movie for so many occaisions! Watch it! I bet you'll love it just as much as I do. It's silly humor and characters that you can't help but love make this movie a winner from begining to end.

It's great for so many age groups too! January 17, 2008

I've always thought this movie was simply campy fun...

I first saw this when it came out on videotape. I must have been 11 years old. I absolutely adored it and watched it over and over again, singing the songs at the top of my lungs. It's not a great movie; it's not even a particularly good one, perhaps. However, it cheered this young girl up after my family had gone through a particularly nasty divorce and I'll never forget it for that. It's on TV today, and more than 20 years later, I'm singing it again...and smiling. January 1, 2008
