Entertainment Reviews:
The high school is so sanitized that there are no drugs, cutthroat competition, or-inconceivably for a theatrical milieu-no gay students.

Chicago Reader
Rating: 3/5 --
There are enough hoary soap-operatic plottings for a thousand Gossip Girls (emotionally distant parents, almost-rapes, suicide attempts), yet Tancharoen individualizes each crisis so that no one character comes off as a mock-universal surrogate.
Time Out
Rating: 5/10 --
The pageantry really is very nice, especially the dance numbers, but as soon as the music stops, so does Fame. It's not the worst remake ever made, it's not even really very bad, just stodgily, repressively mediocre.

There are six new songs in the remake, but not one makes any impact, or is likely to end up as the ring tone of 2010.

Fails to make a significant mark.

So many of these characters flit across the screen, we're only given minutes to get to know each and, consequently, care about none.

absolutely shameless in its sadistic trotting-out of every single rabbit in the tiny teen-pageant top hat.

Product Description:
This remake of the 1980s classic focuses on a group of young students attending a high school for the performing arts. Classmates study various aspects of performance from dance to songwriting to acting, all of them hoping for the chance to one day become stars. Debbie Allen, Charles S. Dutton, Kelsey Grammer, Megan Mullally, and Bebe Neuwirth portray the instructors, with a host of newcomers toplining the production as the students.
