My long awaited viewing of the infamous sequel to “Saturday Night Fever”, starring Travolta, and it was hilariously awful. “Staying Alive” was released 6 years after the first film, with almost none of the original cast returning aside from Travolta and Julie Bovasso. This movie had awful dialogue, intercut with endless musical interludes. The dance choreography was laughable, the story is basic, with extremely cliche and flat characters and bad performances across the board.The film’s directed by Sylvester Stallone. Interestingly enough, “Staying Alive” is his only film he directed that he didn’t star in as the lead. This movie was incredibly dull, and basically unwatchable. One of the worst and corniest movies I’ve sat through. Despite it’s status and gross, its cheesiness will leave you cringing.
