 Slant Magazine - Film Review: Grease
Both films are painfully mired in the decade of their making, looking back in great reverie toward the time a full generation past, with the decade in between representing, more or less, the film's antagonist.
That Grease was the number-one box-office hit of 1978 just goes to show how hard audiences were willing to try to will the past into the present.
Grease has no heart and thus can't misplace it, but filling the gaping void is a nonstop arsenal of accidentally memorable non sequiturs, most of them as appropriately effervescent as the script would require if there actually were a script.

 At-A-Glance Film Reviews: Grease (1978)
The sound mixing is particularly distracting, for there is a continual tendency for the background music and noise to drown out the voice of the solo singer or speaker for the moment.
Grease is something one must see on stage to appreciate fully.
A curious observation about Grease and many of its peer musicals -- and actually the society that produced them in general -- is that conformity is a bad thing, and one must rebel against the system to be one's own individual.

 Review: Grease
It certainly isn't a momentous film, and stands a considerable distance downslope from the pinnacle its genre, but it became a huge hit in an era when the musical was well into its death throes.
The film was also popular enough to spawn a sequel, catchily titled Grease 2, but the less said about that sad endeavor, the better.
Despite all of the silliness and singing, the exuberance of youth lies at the core of Grease, and, although everything is greatly exaggerated here, the film brings back memories of what it was like to hang out in the school yard, take a date to a drive-in movie, and attend a prom.

 [ Times & Free Press Movie Reviews: 20-year old film 'Grease' has become teen-age cult ]
Randall Kleiser, the film's director, is nonplused by the phenomenon.
"Grease," at least to the nonbeliever, seems merely a relic of the nostalgia obsession of the 1970s that inspired TV shows and movies like "Happy Days," "The Waltons" and "The Way We Were." Costumed pretties spout bland homilies anachronistically interpolated with 1970s hallmarks (in "Grease's" case, leather pants and disco backbeats).
The key to the film's success may be the way it captured the cusp between innocence and knowingness.

 Grease Review Movie Review Film Grease: John Travolta, Olivia Newton-John, Stockard Channing, Jeff Conaway, Barry ...
Back then, the film was nothing short of a pure delight: the musical numbers were jubilant and lively, the cast likeable and well-groomed, the external look of the film a visual feast, and the overall experience one that was unforgettable.
Revisiting the film eight years later, I have found that nothing has changed: the humor is as refreshing as it was before, the music light and carefree, the effect a dose of pure movie magic.
Eve Arden is a hit as the school's principal (her "athletic supporter" line is one of the film's most humorous), Sid Caesar is warm and lovable as the football coach, and Dody Goodman is a smash as the principal's assistant.

The two unissued tracks, "Greased Up And Ready To Go" and "Rydell Fight Song" and the sing-along versions of the hits are not worth the price of the second disc, the remixes are terrible, I never cared for the "mega-mix", the "dream mix" is worthless, and the "Grease" sax instrumental is pointless.

Grease’s retrospective view on the 1950s exemplifies the sentiment of the era.The author also discusses success of grease as both a musical and a film, the author endows significance to Grease for marking the end of the musical film slow-down period.
First of all, the author mentions about the change of role of music in film: whereas the goal of the traditional film score was to cue an emotional response in the viewer, recent sound tracks are put together on the assumption that the audience recognize the artists, the song, and at least a familiar style.
This role is explicitly manifested in the trailer of Grease because the trailer tried to underscore the meeting of two world-famous stars as a couple for the first time in the movie.
