Review

A campy guilty pleasure, this quintessential 1980's "disco musical" was a box-office flop and despised by critics everywhere. True, the story of a muse (Newton-John) who comes to life to inspire a young artist (Beck) is loaded with sappy and sometimes silly plot developments, and director Greenwald, while possessing a talent for visuals, hasn't an idea about narrative.

But for those willing to bask in its unpretentious and curiously effective fantasy elements and musical numbers, Xanadu is a disco-thumping, roller-boogeyin' lark. The good score helps. Kelly, in his final dramatic role (if you can call it dramatic), appears as sort of a wise sage who opens a dance hall and gets to perform a dance or two.
