rhiannon ✿Oct 23, 2022Makes a strong case that most movies should be 70% pop music montages and dance sequences and shot entirely with the characters in silhouette surrounded by smoke

How did I not realise the main actress is Bette from the L Word?! The main reason I watched tbf. Very 80s and soundtrack was good. I dont think the strip club would be that open minded to her arty dance routines in real life 🤣
Madiiiii lovedFlashdanceAnything Jennifer Beals has ever had part in is worth the watch
Derek likedFlashdancethe main girlie was gorgeous! the story was okay but i thought almost every shot was beautiful. the lgbt jokes weren’t offensive either which was nice to see from a movie of the time. a good watch overall

"Nick, I told you I don't think it's a good idea to go out with the boss." "Fine. Have it your way. You're fired. I'll come pick you up at 8." HWIWBDIEBDKFBWKBSIDBEKABDKEHEKDBEKSHFKRH!?!?!?!!?!?!?
Gerben Joustra is "meh" onFlashdancePretty big deal back then, slowwww for now to the extent you’d want to FF (which I almost did 🤣), especially because nothing really happens. Stereotypical and boring, serious Meh!
Alyssa is "meh" onFlashdanceI was really excited at the beginning bc I love dance movies. But at times I felt there was no plot or some scenes were irrelevant. Would’ve liked more dancing scenes
- Tatum likedFlashdance
Grace thought the love interest was gonna murder her and genuinely said she wasn’t in the mood for a scary movie. Not horror. Just the 80s.
Figo Nyberg likedFlashdanceGreat movie with a spitting image of the 80s. The music in this movie is also very good. Overall an interesting and wholesome story.
Mie is "meh" onFlashdanceIt was ok. The iconic water on chair thing was good but I think I’m used to entertainment were there more happening so that’s on me

Metacritic
If Flashdance had spent just a little more effort getting to know the heroine of its story, and a little less time trying to rip off Saturday Night Fever, it might have been a much better film.
Roger Ebert
Chicago Sun-Times
With a score by Giorgio Moroder, and with ingenious costumes that are utterly au courant, Flashdance contains such dynamic dance scenes that it's a pity there's a story here to bog them down.
