Such a smart, funny, beautiful movie! Pays attention to details, has very likable actors, superb dancing, great script.Even though its a small budget movie, i just really loved how carefully they've directed it, haven't seen any goofs or superficial scripting and even though it seems predictable at first glance, it surprises in every level! I never liked Billy Zane and this is the first role that he is very cute and funny.It suits him well! This is one movie you have to see, if you are romantic and love dance! I have to write 2 more lines, i don't understand this silly rule, so let me repeat again and again, this movie is wonderful and if you like dance, comedy and romance, sit tight and enjoy the movie night!

MoviePlex is a generally blah movie channel (especially since it dropped its Western Wednesdays) but occasionally it brings us a little or little-known film that just grabs a viewer's heart and won't let go.This movie is one of those.Its cast of mostly unknowns (I think Billy Zane is the only one I had heard of) are not only astonishingly talented, but the characters they play are very likable and even compelling. There are some stereotypes, but they just add to the fun.They are also mostly extremely attractive, either as physical specimens or as characters. Nicola Royston, for one, is just eye-poppingly and exotically beautiful -- and has made apparently only one movie. (What is the matter with the world's casting directors?)Even the film's closest-to-villainous characters are likable and good- looking. One man who ignores his intended and pays more attention to business is one of them, but he is to be pitied, not censured.Look especially for Rachel Dratch, of whom probably I should have known, but this was my first look. She is absolutely adorable, and in her last scene, she steals it. Watch her face. Marvelous!The music is not even close to being what I would ordinarily listen to, but as setting for the dances, it was something even I liked. Some of the choreography is less than perfect, but the dancers are so good, so watchable, so graceful and athletic, any flaws (which might be subjective, anyway) are totally unimportant.In short, this is one excellent movie, one I've already watched twice, and one I highly recommend to any person who likes dance, who likes "damn nice" people (to quote one character's assessment of some of his dance rivals), and who appreciates top-of-the-line talent.

It was painful sitting through this. The same movie has been done over and over again. Acting was poor. Each one of them seemed to be trying too hard to bring their characters to life.The story, a school teacher takes a few dance lessons and her instructor believes she is ready to compete in the world championships? Are you serious? It was so bad, even the smallest things were annoying. A scene at a party, male leads former dance partner is with her new guy. He is chomping on gum with his mouth open like a cow chewing it's cud. And drinking a beer. Beer and gum? Try it sometime, you'll see why it isn't done.I could run off a seemingly endless list of things in this movie that I found annoying, but it would be much easier to list the things that did not annoy me. Hmmmmmm, thinking........hmmmm..... well, the dance sequences, with the real dancers, were fairly good to watch.I just wish there was a score lower than 1 to rate this movie.

I'm anticipating the release of this film so friends can enjoy it as much as I did. I had the pleasure of viewing it at the Phoenix Film Festival and the house was packed. To our surprise Mr Zane and Mr Malloy along with other cast members flew in for the screening. We've all seen these types of films before, but they never cease to keep us in our seats. This film focusing on West Coast Swing dancing competition and a dancer with a hearing disability, Wow! The film is inspirational to say the least and showcased many brilliant dancers.It was clearly evident that the film was a big hit with the ovation given at the conclusion of the film.I would also like to make note of the cast staying around for close to an hour after the film answering various questions on this film, independent films in general, and how to get into the business.If you're looking for a feel good movie with great music, acting, and dancing, don't miss it.
