...feel-good, dressed-down, non-glam house music, hot and hasty in your joints like you haven't heard in a long time.

They almost make you forget Cher's totally out-of-it work as a disapproved-of American and carry the film to its destiny, which is one of inoffensive inconsequence, prettily staged...
