Review of Hairspray

Hairspray (2007)
Dumb and formulaic, but very enjoyable (the fat girls is great)
2 September 2010
Warning: Spoilers
I preferred john waters version of course, the original with the transvestite divine and the crass show hostess Ricky lake, but john Travolta was really good as a transvestite here too.

As per usual Hollywood affairs are for the moron masses, so this loses the appeal of the Waters film but still the fat girl is a great actress, and it rips enough off the original to make it enjoyable.

I have to fill out these lines because somehow IMDb doesn't allow for less than ten lines of review, what's with that, I thought brevity was a virtue? It sure seems to so with all the garbage but gets posted here.

There I did it.
