Thanks, fretless, for the link to that trailer. It captures the worst qualities of the film quite well.

I had forgotten how awful the choreography was ~ the exact same dancing styles as in a bikini-beach-party movie! I suppose that, for a visual medium like cinema, performers standing or sitting still with their instruments were not going to cut it.

The songs were entertaining enough, and interesting at least from a historical perspective. Whether one wouldt be able to sit through the other stuff without gagging depends upon how highly refined one's sense of irony or "camp" might be.
