Leave your thoughts about Fame.
| Flick FilosopherMaryAnn JohansonInfectious and moving and sometimes bittersweet. |
| Chicago Sun-TimesRoger EbertFame is a genuine treasure, moving and entertaining, a movie that understands being a teen-ager as well as Breaking Away did, but studies its characters in a completely different milieu. |
| VarietyVariety StaffAlan Parker has come up with an exposure for some of the most talented youngsters seen on screen in years. There isn't a bad performance in the lot. |
| Boston GlobeBruce McCabeFame isn't only the best musical of the summer, it's one of the best films of any genre -- a fresh and funky, sassy and brassy, gutty and gritty, slick and smart piece of work. |
| eFilmCritic.comScott WeinbergAs Fame begins to unspool and you realize that the movie's a lot more endearingly grimy and profane than you recall...just blame it on that stupid TV knockoff. |
| TIME MagazineRichard SchickelThe film is full of attractive young performers. And there is a low-keyed conflict between them and a faculty that is trying to discipline their exuberance without stifling their spirits. If the film had concentrated on that instead of on hokey melodrama, it might have been far more engaging and truer to life. |
| Common Sense MediaKari CroopRaw look at teen life more shocking than you might recall. |
| Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)Ken HankeNot always believable, but energetic and enjoyable. |
| Empire MagazineAnna SmithThe song and dance scenes are hard to beat in terms of sheer energy and atmosphere, but the dramatic storylines leave several loose ends. |
| EmanuelLevy.ComEmanuel LevyDirector Alan Parker has reinvented effectively the old musical movie genre of let's put on a show in a way that speaks directly to younger viewers |
