It is fantastic. Very corney etc, but brilliant dancing etc.

Travolta and Walken are so funny and Queen Latifah is as gorgeous glam and fab as ever.

Would definately recommend it.

Would a nearly 8 year old who loves HSM like it? Thinking of buying dvd for Crimbo.

I took my 10 and 8 year old girls i look after to see it at the cinema and they loved it!

nannyj · 24/11/2007 16:36

Plus Zac Efron is in it too

I do love the Ricki Lake/Divine version though!!!

You can buy the 2 dvds together in a box set.

Bomper · 25/11/2007 22:38

OK, so those who have seen both - which is best or are they totally different takes on it?!

Different films really 1st one is more edgy but did see it ages ago. 2nd one is more mainstream but i would go for that especially if its for a child.

Doesn't touch the original

smeeinachristmastreeinnit · 26/11/2007 19:45

oh its great isnt it!! we love hairspray!
travlota is gr8 in it.
went to see it with ds2(15) he sat there singing all the songs in a steriotypical gay kind of way!!!

I thought the recent one was alright (not really a Musical girl though tbh, and wasn't prepared for the whole 'I love you Baltimooooore!' intro)

The John Walters version one is brilliant. Great cast, great soundtrack, great acting, cheesy-yet-edgy, hilarious...

One of my favourite films.
