The movie, Save the Last Dance is a story about a girl, named Sara, who moves to live with her musician father in a lower side of the city. She loves dancing, but at this new place she changes her style. With her new group of friends Sara also has a love interest that creates rivals.I LOVED IT PERSONALLY.I enjoyed the entire movie. It was heartwarming yet real. The movie addressed problems that are in society today. Save the Last Dance also sends the message of second chances and to be you. This movie is at the top of my must watch list. I'd recommend it to anyone. Especially musical lover. Anybody looking for a movie about being yourself, "taboo" love, and dancing, this is the movie for you. Not one part of the movie was dull and they even slipped in a bit of action.Watch it! You won't regret it!

O.K let me start by saying i'm 18years old, and some may not class that as a "MATURE" viewer but its definitely older than i was when this movie first came out which was 10 YEARS OLD! now i remember watching this movie with a bunch of friends at a friends house and LOVING it, by the time i was 12 this movie was comfortably my favorite and i still have it on DVD. However i just saw it come on t.v recently and after watching it although i still thought it was a solid movie it no longer holds the TOP SPOT for me and i wish they had focused a little more on Chenille's situation, Kerry Washington is one hell of an actress especially in the scenes with her "baby daddy", but i understand it can only be so long. I still like my fav scenes that i did before i.e fight scene with Nikki and Sarah, all the club scenes and Sarah's dramatic speech about ballet and of course her audition dance. All in all i'd say it's a great movie but i'm not as enthusiastic as i was when i was younger...

This is my wife's favourite movie of all time. I watched it with trepidation, but to my surprise I enjoyed it and actually consider it to be a well-made movie. I should keep my comments about this movie, but I think it is worthy of note that this title has led to many copycat movies which all seem to have the same story... girl meets boy, girl and boy both have problems but overcome them through their love of dancing. You could view this genre very cynically for that reason, but I genuinely think that 'Save The Last Dance' was at least original at the time. The characters are real, the acting is solid and the music is well chosen. You can enjoy this film even if you don't enjoy hip-hop.
