Clever, believable, and super fun to watch. It totally has replay value.

I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

One of those movie experiences that is so good it makes you realize you've been grading everything else on a curve.

Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

I first saw this movie in the theater and thought it was good, but not spectacular. When it came out on video, I remember liking it so I decided to re-watch. That's when it call started to fall into place. The more times I've watched, the more I realized the subtle details that I had missed the previous times. It just kept getting better. Then there's the soundtrack of ABBA music which just makes you want to dance.

As if the weird gross gender roles weren't enough, the movie has that gross 90s Aussie cringe, akin to other garbage fests like The Wog Boy.Dancing Queen plays like, five times throughout the movie.Other humor is pretty dated, including a crude joke about the apartheid.

*I ask myself 38 questions to determine the rating I give to a film, while I do not believe that the quality of a film can be numerically determined, I don't always want to fully write out a review and ultimately if I disagree with the resulting rating, I can always "veto" it and decide something else.
