My daughter and I never get tired of watching Hairspray. Wonderful music, dancing, and powerful messages about standing up for what you believe in and making change for the better good. Will always be a favorite.
Hasta que no haya ESPAÑOL LATINO, NO LO COMPRO!

When I first viewed HAIRSPRAY (2007), I thought it was one of the those musical flicks you could lose yourself in. The energy, the characters, the message(s). But as time went on, and I looked at the trailer to the original 1988 John Waters film--and the original film itself--I found that...well, you know the adage: NOTHING BEATS THE ORIGINAL! I mean, I think about it. Tracy Turnblad went from unafraid though constrained rebel against the "Breakfast Club" chapter (through Ricki Lake) to a ditzy, clueless self-congratulating romantic (via Nikki Blonsky). Penny Pingleton may have been the leading lady's best friend, but at least she was more vocal, and had her own incentive go against the 'black-vs-white' societal grain. In 2007, she just blindly goes along for the ride. [Lay/additional terms: Lesley Ann Powers showed more range and authenticity than Amanda Bynes.] Regarding Edna Turnblad and Wilbur Turnblad...bad boys John Travolta and Christopher Walken had more to do while "getting shorty" in crowning the "king of New York". Waters made Edna 'Divine' and gave Wilbur a strong will in spite of being a Stiller. Shankman lived up to his name, and shanked them--and the others--like raw meat. Motormouth Maybelle knew where she had been because Ruth Brown had been there herself; Queen Latifah came rather late. Amber von Tussell got the highest ratings for the lowest doings because she had "Vitamin C" in her diet--as did Colleen Fitzpatrick. In 2007, down came Brittany's snow and killed the growing, sustainable food. Speaking of snowball effects, rolling stones may gather no moss, but only a Prince called Clayton truly gathers much Seaweed. No beach walks nor shore-searching for Mr. Kelley. Not to mention, The Corny Collins Show was hosted by a progressive, no-nonsense, anti-bullying frontliner (Shawn Thompson), NOT by some grinning, passive doormat (James Marsden). Back to the Von Tussells, Velma often touches to scratch, viciously, with husband Franklin alongside. Thank Sonny and Debbie. Ironically, the best big-screen Catwoman--in my book-- failed to show up claws at the ready. Either that or she had been de-clawed, willingly. Finally, in contrast to St. Gerard, Mr. Getchaheadinthegame proved to be, indeed, the weakest "Link". Goodbye! By the way, you bid Good Morning to Baltimore while IN Baltimore. Not on a Burbank soundstage. It is true: You can't stop the beat; but you CAN stop the piece from going off-key. So let's not dance, eh, Tracy?

Since the first time I saw hairspray I was totally obsessed with it and I can't stop thinking about the awesome and catchy songs. If you see it once you will know you are going to watch it at least twenty more times. This movie is my favorite movie in the whole world so it is worth it to buy the best movie ever. I hope you get it and like it as much as I do.
I got hairspray and wanted to watch it but it takes about 5 days to load and my rental only lasted me thirty minutes into the movie! I am so mad!!! REFUND!
i think this movie is great for kids
This is one of my favorite movie but was VERY disappointed to find there’s no captioning for this movie- in either SD or HD format, and whether I rented or buy the movie. The older version- 1988- is in caption. Just doesn’t make sense!!

This is my favorite musical of all, but I'm going to give an honest review of it.
I love both this movie and the musical, I watch this movie at least once a week! But I think some things could be different. I was kind of disappointed that "Mama, I'm A Big Girl Now" and "The Big Dollhouse" were not in this movie! The storyline was a bit different than the musical, even though it didn't have those songs, I still really enjoyed it! And the new songs, "Ladies Choice" and "The New Girl In Town" are two of my favorites!
But one thing I always seem to dislike about both the musical and the movie seem to have the best songs in the first half of the movie and the least liked in the second half (except for You Can't Stop The Beat. That's my favorite!), but for instance, I LOVE "Good Morning Baltimore", "Nicest Kids In Town", "Mama, I'm a Big Girl Now", "Ladies Choice", "Miss Baltimore Crabs", "New Girl In Town", "I Can Hear The Bells", "Welcome To The Sixties"...those ones are great in my opinion! But I didn't like "Run And Tell That", "Big Blond And Beautiful", "Timeless to Me", "I Know Where I've Been", "Big Dollhouse", "Without Love", or "It's Hairspray" near as much as the songs in the first half. That's just my opinion though, I don't know if anyone else feels the same way about those, I mean I still like those other songs, but I don't get as into them as I do the ones in the first half. I feel they should've been more mixed up, but then again, that isnt really possible with the story line!
But it's still a really great movie and will always be one of my favorites! I've always kind of wanted to direct my own production of Hairspray!
This movie has everything that I want in a musical: great songs, amazing choreography, and it also teaches younger viewers about racism.
I'm into every type of movie that exists...but I love musicals more than anything. This movie is nothing short of excellent and I would recommend it highly to anyone who wants to see it.
i could not stop laughing
This movie is just amazing! It shows how life was before the I have a dream speech in 1963. It uses music to help tell the story which makes it more appealing to younger viewers! This movie does you the terms that were used back in 1962 for African American people but they aren't the bad ones. This movie is great to watch with anybody and I think that everybody should watch it!
I love the movie one of my favorites I love Tracy and all there singing,and dancing one thing I think needs to be changed is the two bad words but that is ok love it
Love it A+++++++++!!!!!!!!!
