Footloose ***

Craig Brewer wrote and directed this Musical. Watch Preview. Cast:Kenny Wormald, Julianne Hough, Andie MacDowell, Dennis Quaid, Miles Teller. Rated PG-13 for some teen drug and alcohol use, sexual content, violence and language. Running time is one hour and fifty-three minutes.

Delivers a new take of the 1984 classic film. A newcomer (Kenny Wormald) challenges a town's ban on loud music and dancing, revitalizing the town and falling in love with the minister's troubled daughter (Julianne Hough) in the process.

Fans of the original will probably see no reason to watch this new version but for the younger crowd it does use a new cast  of fresh faces to tell the same basic story. Wormald is fine and Hough is very good. She appears to have a  bright future in the movies as well as her singing and dancing careers. The pacing is fine and there are no particularly slow parts. The music and dance routines are just what you'd expect and  were  very enjoyable.

The size of the auditorium is not important for this film. There are no additional scenes once the end credits begin. Theatres/Times.
