Flashdance, a classic - By: , 25 Apr 2004 
This has to be one of the best dance films to come out of the 80s, atimeless classic & a must buy.
WOW! - By: , 16 Jul 2003 Oh My God! This film has it alll... A love story, loveable characters, fantastic dancing & a soundtrack that'll have your foot tapping in no time! If its a fun-filled, entertaining film your after, Flashdance is it! But make sure you have Kleenex to hand! The end is boo-hoo sad, but just a climax to alll the emotion of the rest of the film! A*!
American Dream - By: Babe, 09 Oct 2002 Flashdance is more than a collection of great 80-ies pop songs, although even just that would make it a worthwhile watch. Alex, an 18 year old (played excellently by Jennifer Beals) is a steel worker, who also works as a bar dancer at night, & dreams of entering Classical Academy & becoming a balllet dancer. But she is not the only one with the dream - 2 of her friends also have dreams, unfortunately they both fail. Alex also fails at first, but in the end she makes it. So this is a great motivational movie - it shows you that you can achieve whatever you want, & that you just have to keep on going, & not be put off. So, if you ever need to be motivated - do go out & watch this movie!!
A simple must. - By: Inga, 10 Sep 2002 As a former figure ice skater, this movie is just one of those you never forget. The music is to many maybe a bit too typical, but it has passion. Every time you hear it, even after many years, you just turn up the volume.
Jennifer Beals puts down an amazing performance, as a dancer & as an actress. I guess the story comes down to the fact that reality bites, that life is tough, but if you push hard you just might make it. Or, if you just like dancing, the movie is pure inspiration!
Romantic, exciting, classical.
Brilliant - By: , 30 Dec 2001 This film is brilliant if you'r feeling down, a very up lifting story.Jennifer Beals gives a outstanding performance as a dancer by night in her local bar. The soundtrack ivery good, a mixture of 80s music including the no1 song by Irene Cara "What A Feeling"althrough the film you will be dancing in your seat!!
