"XANADU"!!!! (Surprised it hasn't been mentioned before!) A totally ludicrous premise, with actors that can't act, skaters that can't skate, dancers that can't dance, choreography by physio-therapy ward re-hab, singers that can't sing, a once-great star such as Gene Kelly reduced to mugging at the camera whilst wearing various funny suits, a plot that has more holes that an old torn fishing net, a leading man with all the looks to play Pinocchio, flouncy frilly costumes straight out of Holly Hobby, dialogue surely computer written (and delivered!) with earworms that drive you silly for days. Oh and did I mention an utterly ridiculously inserted sequence where all the lead characters suddenly turn into Disney Fantasia-type animations for no apparent reason at all? I kid you not! But all the little background kids do so earnestly work their poor little arses off!
