The hotter and youthful version of Grease

This film clearly took notes of the criticism of the original. The film does not make you wonder of the age of the cast. A lot of them are more youthful looking or they at least does not feel like as old as a your parents. They also made the film's Sandy (played by Pfeiffer) more intuitive and generally less emotive.But that's pretty much were the success of the film ends.Sadly the film fails in one aspect that really made the original successful, the music.Leaving the music behind, the original is not really a noteworthy film, in hindsight. Grease's story is just enough fluff and edge but it is not something to write about. But original's musical core really pushes it into another territory.In Grease 2, the story pretty much drives the film. Its kind of awkward actually seeing some of the music, because it feels unprompted (ie the Cool Rider scene) and sometimes too out of the blue. It's a distraction. In addition, the music is too wordy for its own good. None of the song registered compared to the original, which I also barely knew before watching but does remember at least five by the end.Overall, the film is okay but more so as an appreciation of the story unlike the original, which is an appreciation for the songs.[3/5]PS: The film has a weird obsession with the male lead played by Caulfield. There is a lot of "glamor" shots of him inserted for reaction shots. I know that he is REALLY HOT and I guess, the studio was banking for him as the next big star but really movie?

Louis DiMucci

O.K. I do admit that the movie is beyond bad, but I have to say that Peter Frechette (a.k.a. Louis DiMucci) was adorable! He has a pretty good singing voice as well. Plus I think the "Let's do it for our Country" song is hilarious. He was the best actor in that movie. Even more believable than Michelle Pfeiffer. I give it a 6 because of him.
