This shows fight for what you love. I don't know if they'll ruin this movie with the remake but this version is awesome. The preacher in this movie is over protective but at the end he says " How can our children become trustworthy if we don't trust them" I like that

What Parents Need to Know
About Footloose
Parents need to know that the music and movement will keep preteens entertained, but the sexual material and profanity may be too mature for the youngest. Teens will enjoy the energy of it, but the music is dated and the central conflict (to hold a dance or not) is a bit hard for teens to buy.

One of my favorites!
I really enjoy this movie and remember watching it when I was a teenager. I have watched it several times since then. I would not recommend it for kids younger than 13 since it does deal with sexual situations and has some harsh language.

great movie
I have seen this movie lots of times and I never get tired of it. The dance scenes are my favorite. I love this movie. Some of the material is innapropiate for kids, but I think that anybody over 10 can watch this. I disagree that the theme of the movie is outdated, the movie is still enjoyable anyway!
