Critics consensus

“There's not much dancing, but what's there is great. The rest of the time, Footloose is a nice hunk of trashy teenage cheese.”

It’s very, very silly, but, ahem, kind of fun.

"Footloose" turns out to be a sort of Boy Scout version of "Flashdance," a carefully toned-down, overly respectable piece of schmaltz ...

Essential to the result is young Kevin Bacon, superb in the lead part.

A lot better than people give it credit for. Takes on deeper themes about grief, loss, censorship, and growing up
