Honestly, I always thought it was overrated. Some catchy music, sure, but I don't think it really holds up otherwise. Maybe the play was better?

The play was awful. Sam Simon performed a miracle.

That bad? Huh, wonder how it got picked up for a movie. Are the events behind the scenes interesting enough to look into?

He actually played some of the songs from the stage version for my class. Most of them were just dialog set to music.
