It's humourous, yes, but not my era.

There really aren't a lot of songs in the movie, surprisingly, but the ones that are tend to be memorable and fit very well with the whole theme to the movi...( read more)e. The few special effects were good for the time and the movie itself can be watched and enjoyed by the young and old.
