Writer/Director Craig Brewer ("Hustle & Flow," "Black Snake Moan") delivers a new take of the beloved 1984 classic film, "Footloose." Ren MacCormack (played by newcomer Kenny Wormald) is transplanted from Boston to the small southern town of Bomont where he experiences a heavy dose of culture shock. A few years prior, the community was rocked by a tragic accident that killed five teenagers after a night out and Bomont's local councilmen and the beloved Reverend Shaw Moore (Dennis Quaid) responded by implementing ordinances that prohibit loud music and dancing. Not one to bow to the status quo, Ren challenges the ban, revitalizing the town and falling in love with the minister's troubled daughter Ariel (Julianne Hough) in the process.

A fun movie

This was a very good remake of the original film. Although the film took on a modern feel, the strengths of the original shone through in the remake. The only drawback was that the cuts scenes would have benefited the film and strengthened the storyline.

Those new to the film will enjoy it for what it is. Those of us who knew the orginal, will find it a little too true to the orginial. Nice updatess at the start, but lazy writing at the end.
