GamerTab That was an excellent one.
Micitype Pretty Good
Nayan Gough A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
Fatma Suarez The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
daniel-j-blackwell Do not understand how overall rating is below 7. Watchability does not fade. Incredible movie with an incredible cast. Timeless.
emthackeray Watched this movie a million times and I still love it. A real classic movie with real actors with real class and chemistry unlike most modern day movies. And an all time classic. Gotta love the end dance though.
jssedlacek1 I watched this movie after hearing about how good it was from a few friends, and I figured since it was such a famous movie I should see it. So I did. Now maybe it was because it was so hyped up for me, or maybe it was because I have no nostalgic connection to it, but I thought it was really overrated. The choreography was good, and it had some funny moments. But for a lot of it I couldn't get past the fact that she was supposed to be 17 and he was supposed to be 24, which is pretty gross to me. Also, I didn't see them together, they didn't seem like they were great for each other. I just think that the movie was really overrated, it wasn't bad, but it wasn't all that great. It was a pretty generic and predictable story. The only thing it had going for it was the dancing, and that was pretty good. It made a fun date movie, but outside of an occasion like that I don't think I'd ever really watch it again.
Kingslaay Dirty Dancing is a classic film that is so memorable that it is hard to say anything negative about it. It has a reasonable plot but is accompanied by an immortal soundtrack and moments that make this film remarkable. Herein lies it's value as it can be revisited for positive memories and a soundtrack second to none. While many will argue Schindler's list or 12 Years A Slave is a superior film not many will agree you can revisit or watch it over again. The songs featured in this classic will be included on our iPod's and play on the radios for years to come. We will never forget when Patrick Swayze hoisted Jennifer Grey up for the dance sequence at the end, timeless moments that keep this film alive and memorable. Dirty Dancing in its essence is a film about letting go of strict societal norms and letting the music embrace you. You dance and feel the beat as opposed to observing rules and steps, the music dictates the rhythm and mood. Perhaps this iconic film was significant in the departure from traditional dancing as fewer people know dancing. Dancing as we see in modern movies or real life is people moving to the music without any defined steps, perhaps started by this iconic film.This film is a must see and should be on your bucket list. It is easy to understand and easy to get lost in this great soundtrack.
