although this movie do not do as well a expect at the box office in 1985 and this by no mean take away from the energy and atmosphere of this movie . the main drawback back in 85 and be that everyone have high expectation for this movie since it be direct by the same guy that give u the china syndrome . the main plot of a roll stone reporter ( travolta ) try to get the inside scoop of the fitness boom of the 80 from ( curtis ) be the most enjoyable . the sub plot of white collar crime be a little on the boring side and and doesn not really mesh with the fitness plot . it interest to see all of the aerobic exercise in total 80 style and but by today standard be outdated . everything from the neck roll jaime lee curtis do and to the high impact aerobics which look like it do on a minimally padded floor and really make this movie date and but funny in a way . one thing to remember be that perfect be make during a time when go for the burn and and no pain and no gain be the buzz word throughout the fitness industry . little do people know that try to be a hardbody could land you in the hospital . if you be look for some light entertainment and and you be a fan of john travolta and jaime lee curtis and marilu henner etc and then you will definitely enjoy this enjoyable taste of 80 nostalgia and legwarmers and all .
