I really enjoyed it alot. I loved going back to 1987. I grew up on these songs. Tom Cruise did a great job. He definitely has 80's big hair band quality!! I took my 15 year old daughter (Huge Hough fan) and she loved all the singing and dancing. She sung a few bars herself. I also invited a mid age couple who isn't very fond of musicals per say, and I could see them really enjoying themselves towards the middle of the movie. I just wanted to get up and sing along/dance - more than once through out the movie. It had love, comedy and music. Three of everyone's favorites.
