This movie is so dumb that I can’t help but enjoy it. No joke, Stallone singing “Tutti Frutti” is actually my cell phone ringtone.

[@4Everlast]

Hahaha always found him funny.

[@dpalmerama]

Ditto! If he didn't go all in, I think the film would have been much worse!

No movie with Dolly Parton can be considered awful, But she does test us from time to time.

[@louisduarte8763]

On a related note, how's "The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas", the movie Dr. Venture mistook for a porno?

[@JeromeCloutier]

In the early 80s, my older sister idolized Dolly Parton, and thought Stallone was the bee's knees. She doesn't like to talk about Rhinestone...

[@Blackcatloner1]

Now imagine if Stallone sang Islands in the Stream with Dolly Parton instead of Kenny Rogers. 🤣🤣🤣

[@thebigbomberpilot286]

As someone from TN. I love dolly no matter her role, because it's basically just her. Plus she just lights up scenes for me. Glad this was chosen!

[@mcoo465]

exactly..she always comes across as just DOWN TO EARTH!

Yep, I figured this would win the poll: Brad's a huge Stallone fan, and he's referenced this train wreck MANY TIMES over the years.

[@SpeedyEric1]

Yeah, that's one of the reasons why I also wanted Rhinestone to win the Patreon poll, and I'm surprised to see that this movie isn't as terrible as "Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot".

[@DocZFlux]

@@SpeedyEric1 well, I mean, Stallone wasn’t tricked into doing this film, it was something he actually wanted to do

[@scottbuckley823]

Stalone both doesn't care about the movie but also trying his hardest to make something of the role. it's fascinating to see.

I’ve been waiting for this review for 5 years, especially for Musical March in September. Also, R.I.P. Norm MacDonald. 1:41- I don't recall seeing this movie listed on Disney+. 7:14- Yeah, after seeing clips of Sly singing in this movie from a supercut video of some of his "best" film moments, this is the main reason I wanted Brad to do a Snob episode of Rhinestone for Musical March in September. 11:19- Yeah, I also fondly remember those commercials. 19:51- That theatre is also showing Two of a Kind, that John Travolta/Olivia Newton John rom-com that's worse than Rhinestone.

Now I feel the need to re-watch "9 to 5". The film that taught the joys of getting baked with friends and raiding the kitchen while dishing.

Oh the singing, even the animals couldn't take it.

[@sgt.zombie]

I can't wait to watch but you really should have waited until October since Sylvester Stallone singing country is a horror movie in my book.

[@ivangordy8957]

Dude, same. I'm prepared to fight everyone who voted for anything other than Tommy.

[@RandomVO]

I guess The Snob just...didn't hear you.

[@locnar1]

but Tommy is good. The cast is a Who's Who (get it) parade of 70's stars and Elton john got to keep the shoes! plus ken russell's directing combined with whoever the editor was is brilliant.

[@ChromeDestiny]

To make up for this I now demand that now not only does Snob to do Tommy, he now has to do Lisztomania too. The punishment should fit the crime.

[@benjaminscherliss4594]

I’ve always known this was a bad movie, but loved it for what it is and it is enjoyable as hell. Stallone should be proud of how funny he is in it. And Dolly Parton is a gem.

[@ttthecat]

I am so pleased to be an early comment! I missed seeing your notifications Snob! Glad you are back and had whatever YT algorithm hex you were under lifted! I missed you Snob!

[@tobiaschristopher6131]

Suggestion for next years Musical March in September: The Country Bears In the span of 18 months Disney released three fairly ambitious films based an park attractions it's had since the 1970's. Pirates of the Carribean became a 4 billion dollar franchise with 5 movies, some of them good. The Haunted Mansion was a forgettable whatever movie with a reboot that may be stuck in development hell. ...and the Country Bears just ate a bag of shit at the box office and flopped with most critics. THIS IS PERFECT!!!

[@nicklager1666]

Its to bad that the song 9 to 5 came out before this feature, considering the lyrics it would be fair to assume she sings about her experience in trying to teach Stallone to sing. Thanks for antoher great musical march in september Snob.

Most people's careers would never have recovered from a move like this. Stallone somehow did

You should see the one he's ashamed of. Seriously you should, no one else has.

[@duncanthetall3392]

he survived throwing mama off the train

[@lutherheggs451]

Thats because his career wasn't in danger. His contract forced him to do these movies in between the movies funded he wanted to make. I believe he had to do this to get First Blood Part 2 done.

If SNL had some balls, they'd make a short with Stallone's Rhinestone character and what he's doing NOW. xD

[@travisa7669]

I was 8 years old when this came out and my whole family watched it opening weekend. All I remember from that time was that I thought Sly Stallone was literally everywhere and that it was cute to see Dolly Parton in a movie as I hadn't yet seen "9 to 5". Seems to me the audience in my little Eastern KY town liked the movie quite a bit. Great video!

[@matthollands7771]

I don't care how bad it is, I fucking love this movie! 🤣🤣🤣

[@Scatscar1985]

No wonder Mike Post stayed in TV after this. My main memory of watching this with my Dad is of him going "Good grief" at Dolly's chest. He preferred Stallone's performance by the way.

[@markelijio6012]

This was his next to last project as an arranger and conductor before he rebound himself as an TV composer on "Law & Order" and its spin-off, "Special Victims Unit" on NBC.

[@michaelj.r457]

Thank you to The Snob for summing up and explaining this mysterious "Guilty Pleasure" hold this movie has held on me. It's a bad movie, but a bad movie where everyone looks like they're having fun. Stallone also apparently cited Dolly as one of his favorite co-stars to have worked with. He also later joked that it was the movies where he had a great time filming that ended up being his worst movies (Rhinestone, Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot.) By comparison, movies like the Rocky series, where he often ended up in the hospital with many injuries, were often his best films.
