Editorial Review:
Janey (Sarah Jessica Parker) is a shy good girl. Lynne (Helen Hunt) is a cool rock chick. But when the two scheme to get Janey on television's biggest after-school dance show, they find themselves on a wild adventure filled with cute boys, hot dancing, prudish nuns, mean rich kids, parents that don't understand, and girls doing what they know best--just having fun!
Description of Girls Just Want to Have Fun:
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. With the help of new wave hipster Lynne (Hunt), Janey enters a dance contest and gets paired with Jeff (Lee Montgomery), a rebel in spandex, and the two are soon smitten with each other. Unfortunately, they've made an enemy of a snooty rich girl, who vows to take them down. Everything about Girls Just Want to Have Fun is cheap and cheesy--it doesn't even have the Cyndi Lauper version of the title song--but that doesn't make it any less goofily entertaining, particularly when a debutante ball is wrecked by a bizarre combination of punk rockers and female bodybuilders. Featuring a very young Shannen Doherty as Jeff's little sister. --Bret Fetzer
Girls Just Want to Have Fun Reviews:
Love it! 
2008-06-14 - My little girl and I love to watch this movie together. It's an oldie but a goodie.

2008-06-01 - This is definately a chick movie. If you are young or young at heart this is a great movie to watch. If you like to dance or watch dance this is for you.
Silly but enjoyable. 
2008-05-10 - Girls Just Want to Have Fun is annoying in places but overall this dance film is quite engaging. The dance numbers are incredible for its time period and Sarah Jessica Parker is a fantastic actress even in this drab film. Helen Hunt also stars and it's kinda funny that she once dated Matthew Broderick and Parker is now married to him. Look for a young Shannen Doherty in her pre-brat days. Parker makes this film fresh and fun, just watch it if you are a fan of her work.
About subtitles 
2008-05-08 - Does anyone knows about the subtitles.if there are any??
I need to know if this movie has subtitles in spanish
Thanks...
So much fun!!!
2008-04-14 - This is one movie that I enjoy even more today than I did as a kid. You get to see Shannon Doughtery, Helen Hunt, And Sarah Jessica Parker in the earlier days, dancing in fab 80's outfits to win a spot on DTV! If you are female and haven't seen this , you must!!!
