Synopsis
Perfect is pure 1980s fluff, complete with a swingin’ John Travolta (mousse-filled hair and all) as Adam, a magazine journalist looking to expose the fitness and aerobic-class craze as nothing but a replacement for the 1970s polyester-filled singles bar faze. Enter sensuous and feisty fitness instructor Jessie (Jamie Lee Curtis), who brushes off Travolta at first but steals his heart nonetheless.
