San Francisco Chronicle by Edward Guthmann
Light and innocuous.
50
New York Post by Jonathan Foreman
Amateurishly written and directed, and so predictable that it hurts.
50
The New York Times by Lawrence Van Gelder
Amounts to recycling rather than reinvention.
40
Chicago Reader by Lisa Alspector
Never seems to find its tone.

Austin Chronicle by Marc Savlov
A wistful, humorous, but ultimately fluffy look at those halcyon days, before punk, junk, and the onslaught of the Eighties.

USA Today by Staff [Not Credited]
A further dose of "been there/done that."

TV Guide Magazine by Steve Simels
There's something inherently funny and surreal about Chinese kids speaking Singlish while trying to be goombahs from Brooklyn.

A wonderfully witty homage to the very king of disco movies -- "Saturday Night Fever."
