Oct 13, 2011, 13:07 GMT

Footloose - Blu-ray Review

Sep 30, 2011, 15:29 GMT

Put on your dancing shoes, that is unless it’s been banned in your small town.  Footloose boogies onto Blu-ray with some nice new special features, but an uneven transfer.  The film that made Kevin Bacon some bacon is still fun, but also features a thoughtful performance from a supporting member.
