Dirty Dancing Reviews

Wonderful

As this is my favourite movie of all time I can honestly say it is fantastic!!! A magically heart warming, love story with a fabulous soundtrack and Patrick Swayze's dance moves to boot! At the same time touching on a number of emotive issues thoughtfully and with sensitivity which lifts this movie above the rest - sit back relax - see it MY WAY !

There's not many movie that I can say I can watch again and again but this film I can. My kid sister got me into this movie, she went to see it at the pics when it was first released after her fifth time of seeing it she'd run out of friends to go with and pleaded with me to go. I thought the last thing I want to see is some Teeny Boppy Dance film. Anyway she was paying so I went, how wrong I was!!

This is a good family movie, music that all ages will enjoy, great story. It will make you laugh,cry & swoon (Patrick Swayze).

Toe tapping great

I remember seeing this movie at the age of 17 in 1987 and it has become one of my favourite films of all time and I have a copy on video but I am now buying on DVD. The music and dancing is electric even after 17 years since it was first made. The two main characters were made for each other.

This film has not aged at all and for a gal of the ripe age of 34 it is timeless and can be watched over and over again. To be honest I have lost count how many times I have watched it.

never tire of this film

still feel this was one of the best films that was out at the time .such great music and the dancing in it made it the hit it was

Absolutely fantastic when you are a teenage girl but I was surprised how much I still enjoyed it as an adult - certainly not a guy film but it has the classic issues of love, honour, integrity, friendship, etc. - and Patrick Swayze's dancing of course!

This film is timeless. No matter how many times I watch it it is as great as the first time.

[Highly rated reviewer]

The best ending ever!

This is my favourite film(with grease).What I love about this film is the fact that they did not choose two realy beautiful hollywood actors to play the parts of baby and Johnny.Jennifer Grey and Patrick Swayze are totaly believable because we can relate to them.This is a truly great film with a knockout ending.Have the time of your life and watch this.

Astonishing

I cant believe that i am the 1st person to write a review on this film, it is really good and it a classic! you must add this too your wish list and view it for your self!!

Fantastic

This is an all time classic and one that can be watched over and over again without you getting tired of it. The music and dancing really draw you in and make you want to be a part of it all.

I don't know anyone who hasn't seen this film, but if you they exist "watch it, it's a must see!"

5 Stars? Keep it real

Why do so many people on this site review and rate every film on a black or white basis. It’s either the greatest film ever made or the worst!

Nearly every good review for this film has been given a five star rating... five stars for this? This is a well made TV film with good music and dancing to elevate it above its competitors.

Five stars should be reserved for the very best pieces of cinema and this film is certainly not one of them. If these reviewers are accurate then this film is as good as The Godfather and The Shawshank Redemption!

I’m not saying it’s a bad film I just want people to be more diligent with there star ratings. Just because you enjoy a film doesn’t mean it should get five stars. The film should be rated on all merits and not just because you enjoy singing along to it!

It seems to me that the majority of people who rate films like this that highly don’t know much about cinema…. This is the same reason why The Crazy Frog went to number one!
