Staying Alive Ratings & Reviews
Boston Phoenix
Owen Gleiberman
Staying Alive isn't just a disappointment -- it's a disgrace.
Box Office Prophets
Sean Collier
The production as a whole is too disjointed, repetitive and flat to really hang together.
TIME Magazine
Richard Corliss
As always Travolta is urban gorgeous and very charming. The rest of the film is neither.
Christian Science Monitor
David Sterritt
[Sylvester Stallone] pours lots of energy but little intelligence into scads of short, sweaty scenes more suited to the rhythms of cable-TV ''rock video'' than to the wide screen.
People Magazine
It is a movie caught in a time warp: a slick MTV video that celebrates Eisenhower-era morality. For the Staying Alive audience, the problem is staying awake.
TV Guide
It all amounts to an embarrassing show of unrestrained, Hollywood-style egomania.
Variety
Variety Staff
The bottom line is that Staying Alive is nowhere as good as its 1977 predecessor, Saturday Night Fever.

Chuck O'Leary
If not quite one of the worst sequels ever made, it's near the top of the list of all-time most disappointing sequels. Writer-director Stallone stupidly attempts to turn Tony Manero into a dancing Rocky.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
A slick, commercial cinematic jukebox, a series of self-contained song-and-dance sequences that could be cut apart and played forever on MTV -- which is probably what will happen.
Kansas City Kansan
Steve Crum
Was this sequel really necessary? Nope.
New York Times
Vincent Canby
A sequel with no understanding of what made its predecessor work.
Juicy Cerebellum
Alex Sandell
Saturday Night Fever through the eyes of Stallone.
Apollo Guide
Scott Weinberg
So horrific are the musical sequences in this movie that you'll swear you were having nightmares directed by Satan himself.

Frank Ochieng
More like staying dead...a monotonous and unnecessary sequel that has all the grace and flow of a greased hog on rollerskates
