‘Footloose’ is Out on Blu-ray/DVD March 6! Enter to win a FREE copy!

Read our review of Footloose here.

Synopsis: Writer/Director Craig Brewer (“Hustle & Flow,” “Black Snake Moan”) delivers a new take of the beloved 1984 classic film, “Footloose.” Ren MacCormack (played by newcomer Kenny Wormald) is transplanted from Boston to the small southern town of Bomont where he experiences a heavy dose of culture shock. A few years prior, the community was rocked by a tragic accident that killed five teenagers after a night out and Bomont’s local councilmen and the beloved Reverend Shaw Moore (Dennis Quaid) responded by implementing ordinances that prohibit loud music and dancing. Not one to bow to the status quo, Ren challenges the ban, revitalizing the town and falling in love with the minister’s troubled daughter Ariel (Julianne Hough) in the process.

Cast: Kenny Wormald, Julianne Hough, Andie MacDowell, Dennis Quaid
Director: Craig Brewer

  • I loved this remake it had wonderful dancing and it stayed pretty true to the orignal but just enough of an update to make it perfect!

  • Absolutley love the re-make. Carly loved it too.....hard to explain to her it was a re-make since she saw this one first.
    I had to rent the original for her after she saw the new one (actually found it at our local rental store)!!
    Would love our own copy!!
