Top Critic
The real creative opportunities lie in visual and choreographic options, and Haines doesn't miss a beat in either department.

Top Critic For every cliché embraced in its entirety, another is subverted just enough that you're pleasantly surprised.

Too insubstantial to rise above being anything other than feel-good fluff...

Top Critic Sparkles just like an old-fashioned musical--it's beautifully designed and skillfully directed.

The use of Plowright as a middle-aged frump wanting to get in on the sexy action is deeply patronizing.

What is it about dance, that most joyous of arts, that inspires so many bad movies?

When it turns its attention to bodies in motion, writhing across the floor to a salsa beat, the film is a joy to watch. When drama takes center stage, which is all too often, 'Dance' drags its feet.

A great big summer cheeseball of a movie that mildly entertains but doesn't stimulate.

Top Critic A romantic drama that makes the most of the many fine dance sequences in the storyline.

Throughout the film, Haines treats...banal moments as epiphanies, telegraphing every feeling and thought with annoying coyness.
