Storyline
Did you know
- Trivia"Do It For Our Country" is a duet between Sharon and Louis. Maureen Teefy couldn't make it to the recording session, so Peter Frechette had to sing the whole song himself, which is why Maureen's vocals aren't on the movie's soundtrack. Her voice was dubbed in later in the song
- GoofsIn the scene near the beginning of the movie where the twins interrupt Michael while he is running around the track, a guy is on his left jumping hurdles. After he jumps the second one, his goods fall out of his shorts. He discreetly tries to cover himself for the rest of his time in the scene.
- Quotes
The Pink Ladies: The Pink Ladies Pledge to act cool, to look cool and to be cool, till death do us part, Think Pink!
- Alternate versionsIn the film, after Stephanie wins the contest, it goes on to show the Luau in the final scene. Originally, a few minutes were dedicated to a scene in which Michael comes out on stage as Stephanie is exiting the stage not knowing that he is her Cool Rider and he is alive--she believes he is dead. He attempts to ask her what's wrong and she storms past him crying, then it cuts to the Luau.

Featured review
This is a good follow-up to the 1978 movie "Grease". Although it has gotten some bad reviews over the years, I still think the movie is a good comedy musical and it is just as much of a swooning romance as the first film. This film is desperately underrated on IMDb and deserves a second watch.
What I really loved is the romance between gum-smacking bad girl Stephanie and the seemingly upper-classed and very intelligent Michael. The romance is very much like the first "Grease" story but in reverse but "Grease 2" is a romance story all of it's own.
The soundtrack is not bad - in fact, it's quite good for a musical! There are not a whole lot of musicals where the songs are catchy like in both of the Grease films.
Again, I think more people should give this movie another chance (viewing) and for those that have not seen Grease 2 - watch it and judge the movie for yourself instead of reviews! 8/10
