This is partly due to the fact that, as breathtakingly predictable kids-against-the-squares romps go, it's really pretty tolerable, but it's mostly because of the soundtrack. The songs that appear in the film--notably Kenny Loggins' infectiously vapid title track, and gale-force screecher Bonnie Tyler's excruciating "Holding Out for a Hero"--are possessed of an awfulness so monolithic that they have transcended their era and become reliable floor-fillers at 80s nostalgia discos all over the western world. The plot, such as it is, sees the eerily androidal Kevin Bacon playing a hip rock & roll youth from the big city rebelling against the strictures of the conservative small town in which he finds himself living. Inevitably, he falls for the daughter of his nemesis, the local preacher (the latter, it has to be said, is played with some aplomb by John Lithgow, who very nearly wrings depth from a character otherwise straight out of the colour-by-numbers guide to movie-making). Inevitably, there are some dance sequences. Inevitably, the kids win out, and the grown-ups realise that maybe they aren't so bad after all. On the DVD: Footloose can be watched on disc, should you so desire, dubbed in German, Spanish, French or Italian. There also subtitles available in pretty well every European language, as well as Arabic, Hebrew, Russian and Turkish. Other than that there are no extras. --Andrew Mueller Review: Flim - Great movie for a dance 80s Review: Good - Good ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00006IXEE | | Actors | Christopher Penn, Elizabeth Gorcey, John Lithgow, Kevin Bacon, Lori Singer | | Aspect Ratio | Unknown | | Best Sellers Rank | 35,984 in Electronics & Photo ( See Top 100 in Electronics & Photo ) 195 in DVD Players | | Customer reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (4,285) | | Director | Craig Brewer, Herbert Ross | | Is discontinued by manufacturer | No | | Item model number | 5014437824530 | | Language | English (Dolby Digital 5.1) | | Media Format | PAL | | Number of discs | 1 | | Producers | Craig Zadan, Gary Barber, Lewis J.

I absolutely loved the songs and the dancing - the actors are extremely talented and, for the most part, draw you into their lives and the story. I couldn't help singing an dancing around my flat "with" them! There's also some great character development, which I've never seen in any kind of musical/musical film before. I haven't seen the remake, but I usually choose originals over remakes anyway, hence my decision to just purchase the original. It does drag on a little in parts, whereas some other parts I couldn't watch, like the near-fatal accidents/misadventures of the young characters. Having been hit by a car once myself, I found those scenes triggering and had not expected them at all, so be warned, if you have also suffered from any kind of vehicle collision. I also didn't enjoy the fights, although these are short and there aren't many of them. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.in/products/49480349-footloose-1984](https://www.desertcart.in/products/49480349-footloose-1984) --- *Product available on Desertcart India* *Store origin: IN* *Last updated: 2026-05-09*
