      • Footloose is a feel-good film with heart and a great soundtrack. While the script is cheesy at times and the dancing leaves a lot to be desired, the film harkens back to a more innocent time in filmmaking when everything wasn't about sex and drugs in teen movies.

  2. Footloose (1984) Rated PG. "Footloose" is a seriously confused movie that tries to do three things, and does all of them badly. It wants to tell the story of a conflict in a town, it wants to introduce some flashy teenage characters, and part of the time it wants to be a music video.

  5. Feb 17, 1984 · Review. Featured review. 8/10. Sure it's silly but it's an 80s teen musical. Teenager Ren (Kevin Bacon) moves to a small mid Western town with his mom after his parents divorce. It seems the Reverend Moore (John Lithgow), of the town's only church, has totally banned rock and roll music from the entire town.

  8. Mar 4, 2021 · Andrew’s Rate-O-Meter Score: 7/10 MPAA/CARA rating: PG Runtime: 1hr 47min I gave Footloose an 7/10 mostly because of the music by “Soundtrack King” Kenny Loggins; one of his songs provides the title of this film.
