  6. Movie review: Fame -- 2 out of 5 stars

    Fame, the original &quot;high school musical," earns a sometimes toe-tapping remake that borrows scenes, situations and character "types" from its 1980 original. But in filtering that gritty, edgy drama about the true costs of pursuing a life in the performing arts through a Disney-fied HSM lens, MGM has rubbed the edges off and scrubbed away all the grit. This Fame is a film without the guts to show Idolized America that, as Debbie Allen so memorably said way back when, "Fame costs, and right here's where you start paying."
