Prisha M This is a bit of a guilty pleasure film, honestly. Channing Tatum has a unique, rugged charm that makes him captivating to watch. There's an intense chemistry with Jenna Dewan that makes the movie enjoyable. The characterisation is good. None of the characters are totally dependent on one another, and both have their own resolves outside of the romance. I appreciate that Nora, who has her ups and downs, has an unyielding attitude that showcases the character's passion for dance. There were also aspects of Tyler's personality - such as his willingness to encourage his friends to 'just go for it' - that were admirable. Yet, the characters were flawed in a realistic way whilst still being likeable. To point out some flaws, the twists were a bit abrupt, giving the viewer a bit of whiplash. Not in a 'woah, I feel the pain the characters feel' way, but more of a 'what just happened' way. But overall, this is a fun, unserious film.

Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 10/11/24 Full Review Blu B It's a watered down Dirty Dancing minus staying at a resort. It's ok. Nothing particulary good and nothing particulary bad. The chemistry is passable enough, the direction is basic, and the story BARELY works. It feels like stuff just happens but it kind of works just enough where it holds together. The side drama with Mario and all feels completely pointless. It never really is able to tie the personal drama with the dancing/romance that well. The dance numbers themselves aren't that memorable and there suprisingly isn't a lot here of it. The end number is just ok too and isn't that memorable and none of the dances really tie into the characters emotions or arcs. The music is very forgettable also. Even the rap tracks. Tatum is very wooden and stilted in this the entire time also. That's about it honestly. Skip It and watch Diry Dancing instead. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 08/31/24 Full Review Dave C "It's the usual case of great dancing, bad acting and even worse dialogue in this very guilty pleasure for fans of the genre." - Anna Smith, Empire Magazine. They have it so very right, yet rated it so very wrong! This, its sequel (let's ignore the other follow-ups for the time being), and 'Honey' have been - and remain, firm favourites since their respective releases. This presents performance arts in an accessible way, and delivers entertainment whilst doing so. Ultimately it makes me feel good when I watch it Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/28/24 Full Review Read all reviews
