John Travolta



I first saw him in movie the broken arrow as a kid, did not like him. Obviously, John Travolta was the bad guy in that movie. Later on I happened to watch few more flicks of John Travolta and started to like him. He is good actor, singer, and dancer. All of above I am fan of his Joie de vivre nature. He is always remains full of energy and very enthusiastic. Watch his earlier blockbusters like Saturday Night Fever and Grease, and you would definitely agree with my point of view.

Though his career was highly instable in 8o's but he was never out from the minds of his fans. His Career saw a series of disastrous movies like Staying Alive, Perfect, and Two of a Kind. Critics Suggested that he is typecast as a disco stud and not proving anything new to the audience.

His career catapulted in 90's. He received an Academy Award nomination for his role of Vincent Vega in Quentin Tarantino's hit Pulp Fiction (1994).This movie helped him largely to get him back in the frontline. Few of other noted films he has done after that are Get Shorty, Face/Off, A Civil Action, The General's Daughter and recent one is Wild Hogs which was released in 2007.Travolta played Edna Turnblad in the remake of Hairspray, his first musical since Grease, Which got him The Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actor - Motion Picture and Screen Actors Guild Award for Outstanding Performance by a Cast in a Motion Picture. His most recent film is the lead voice role of the Disney film Bolt (2008).Old Dogs is soon to be released. Can’t wait to see him in an action flick.
