"I" had the time of my life

Rating: 8/10 (25 April 2006)

"Dirty Dancing", a movie that I desperately wanted to see for a long time,due to the rave reviews it received. I Finally got around to seeing it a few days back and, boy, was i hooked. I truly had the time of my life watching this romantic musical almost two decades after it was released. The movie's sure to give me a hangover for the next few weeks. I'm trying to figure out what really made the late 80's flick that special to me? The factor that gave me an adrenaline rush? Was it the dance, the lucid [ but sometimes faulty] screenplay, or Patrick Swayze, sporting a cool, macho look. maybe the soundtrack wins hands down, a factor instrumental in its resounding success. Though everyone goes on about "I've had the time of my life", my favorites was "Hungry Eyes". Though a few critics dismissed the movie as cheesy and mushy, it's certainly become one of my favorites in the romantic/musical category. Watch this flick for its vibrates, energy, music, and last but not the least, its uncanny ability to have you dancing when it ends.
