Fun, Campy and very entertaining muscial
|
This movie was originally produced based on the Broadway musical. Like all adaptations, things change as you must make changes to go to film.
This is by no means the best movie ever made, however, it does truly hit the mark for which it was created. To entertain. It does that successfully and without missing a beat. Dolly Parton is truly at home in this roll and I believe captures who Miss Mona is. Burt Reynolds is his usual smarmy, cheesy grinning self which really plays well off Dolly Parton. (I never thought he could act very well, but hey, he did OK)
In a time where people only want 40 sequels to some slasher film or some long drawn out epic movie series, This one stands out and caters th those of us who would like to see something different. |
