Early ’60s Baltimore, and Tracy Turnblad (Blonsky), a big girl with big hair and an enormous heart, dreams of appearing on teen TV dance party The Corny Collins Show. Her wish is granted, but not all goes according to plan...
It was a wonderful experience and I smiled broadly throughout whole sections of the film, however I'm unsure whether to give it five stars. The thing is, if I try to be critical about it then I can see that it's a little too long (maybe 15 minutes) and both Travolta and Walken weren't done real justice dance routine wise.
