“I was 12 when I saw this movie and loved it. I would dream of being a magically glowing roller skating being from another realm for a couple years after the movie. And thatu0026#39;s the point of this comment. There is magic there for the taking if youu0026#39;re looking for some. But if youu0026#39;d rather sit there with your pencil and steno pad, notating every intellectual criticism you can brainstorm; Iu0026#39;m sure you can come up with a lot.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eYou get to see Olivia skate and sing with Gene Kelly. There are some great songs by legendary pop band Electric Light Orchestra. There is some great music and a fun parallel universe available any time you want to put your pencil down.”
