    Your Opinions and Comments

    7 / 10
    A classic musical that increased John Travolta`s stardom and brought Olivia Newton John to the world. The music is fantastic and the picture is also really good. A High School Musical that tells the coming of age of a group of teenagers, in particular JT and ONJ. PQ is near perfection for a movie that was made in the late 70`s. Sound also is fantastic. Only thing that is really lacking is decent extras.
