If that all sounds a bit corny, well, yes, it is – but Malloy writes reasonably sparky dialogue and it’s nice to see so many unfamiliar faces having fun with the kooky characters assigned to them.

Rated: 3/5

"Three's Company" legend Joyce DeWitt, as a shoot-from-the-lip Nana, and WWE Hall of Famer Kurt Angle, playing his smiling self, enter the fray out of nowhere and help get the mostly fast-moving rom-com to where everyone knows it's going.

Rated: 3/5

Ask me to Dance surely can’t be taken too seriously, so if you just want to have a hearty laugh and a healthy dose of clichés then hit the dance floor, we say!

“Ask Me to Dance” has its heart in the right place and tells a story as old as the hills. In this particular case, however, it should have stayed buried.

I recently watched another film from these filmmakers and figured it was just a flop. Then I found this and cannot believe anyone would let these people make a movie. Absolutely criminal. They must know how bad they are right? Lol

I actually purchased this horrible attempt at a movie, because of Briana Evigan. Without doubt she should fire her agent. If I could give minus stars I would. This movie made no sense, I could not watch more than 10 minutes, it was just plain stupid. I should have realized what a bunch of egotistical maniacs produced this abortion when credits kept showing up 8 minutes into the movie. Please spare yourself, this movie is a piece of crap, forget it!

This is a romantic comedy with a lot of heart and lead characters who are likable and realistic. Briana Evigan is new to me and she was the soul of the film. Tom Malloy wrote and directed and is a wonderful dancer. His acting is take it or leave it. Kurt Angle, Joyce De Witt and Mario Cantone give this film prominent stars from the 70's to the 2000's! Stay for the last dance. It is such an uplifting and hopeful film! There are a couple weird choices that you WILL notice. Wife: 7.0/Hubby: 6.8 Average: 6.9/10

I wouldn't say that it was terrible but it was far from good. Whoever played the husband-to-be should consider a different career. I saw some sweet moments but they were overshadowed by raunchy dialogue making it difficult to watch. I gave it 2.5 stars for effort. My wife wanted to watch a dance film and this was not it.
