Footloose: The Remix

I don't see new movies a whole lot. So looking for "a movie I've recently seen" to write about for this post, I searched recent movie releases on the internet. There were maybe 3 on that list of 50 I've seen. It makes me want to go rent some movies.

Footloose is one of the few I've seen. The first Footloose film was made in 1984 so this version is obviously a remake of the original. 

The back cover reads: "Big city teen Ren MacCormack moves to a quiet town and discovers that the hard-line minister has outlawed loud music and dancing. But everything changes when Ren challenges the ban, revitalizing the town and falling in love with the minister's daughter Ariel."

I never got into the first version of this film, but I do enjoy this version. The 2011 version has been "countrified!" It also is a bit modernized which is probably why it has caught my eye more than the first. If you're a fan of the first, check this one out too!
