    Sarah Jessica Parker and Helen Hunt dance their way through Girls Just Want to Have Fun, a glorious example of 1980s kitsch. Janey (Parker), the new girl at a Catholic high school in Chicago, dreams of becoming a dancer on Dance TV.

    Helen Hunt, Sarah Jessica Parker, and a hot guy (who I can't remember his name) live out my ultimate 80's fantasy. Man I wanted to be Jessica and dance on Dance Fever!!! Another one to watch with the ladies. I wonder where they got the inspiration for the movie title?...
