Somewhere between First Blood and Rhinestone, Stallone dreamed of making it big on Broadway. So he resurrected Travolta, buffed him up and greased him down. Lost in the Miami Vice 80s and without any formal dance training beyond neighborhood disco contests seven years earlier, Tony Manero rolls up the sleeves of his white suit and joins a Broadway dance chorus. Before one can ask “Which movie is this the sequel to?,” the Saturday Night Fever character gets a shot at dancing the lead. It’s like Rocky with leg warmers and loin cloths.
