    They just don't make good dance movies like this anymore! Antonio sizzled when he showed his students how it's done.

    If you like Dirty Dancing, and great dance flicks, don't miss this one! From the actors, to the storyline and even the dancing was really good. (I did ballroom dancing for many years, so I can tell when an actor can pull it off. JLo/Richard Gere recently didn't, Antonio and his crew...definitely did!) This is one film that I can say the film was as good as, if not better than the trailer. Don't miss!

    Rated - 3.0 stars  
    By motherwood (70 reviews) from Cambridge , 10 Sep 2009
    Thoroughly enjoyed this performance by Antonio B and his colleagues. Dancing superb and considering it was based on a true story made it all the more enjoyable.

    Can recommend it to all dance and non dance fans alike.

    Likeable dance-based drama with a comforting predictability. Banderas is, as always very watchable. A bit of a chick flick if I'm honest
