Chicago Tribune -
One minute into Saturday Night Fever you know this picture is onto something, that it knows what it's talking about. [15 Oct 1999, Siskel Years, p.6]

Chicago Sun-Times -
It's also interesting to see how little screen time the final disco competition really has, considering how large it looms in our memories.

Entertainment Weekly -
Travolta molds what could have been an equally obvious character into a substantial, tragic figure.

Chicago Reader -
A small, solid film, made with craft if not resonance.

TV Guide Magazine -
The story here is really secondary to character and milieu, as director John Badham and his actors create a convincing portrait of frustrated 1970s working-class youth and the escape offered by the swirling lights and pulsing rhythms of the disco.

Saturday Night Fever (1977)
Tony Manero is a Brooklyn paint-store clerk who'd give anything to break out of his dead-end existence. In life, Tony is a peasant; on the disco dance floor, he's a king. As the soundtrack plays one Bee Gees hit after another, white-suited Tony struts his stuff amidst flashing lights and sweaty, undulating bodies. Tony's class aspirations are mirrored in his relationship with his dance partner, a secretary eager to move into the glamorous world of Manhattan.
