Inspirational and upliftingly beautiful

Rating: 10/10 (22 February 2001)

As I look at others negative comments it makes me sad that they would waste their time destroying it and putting down such a great movie. "Save the Last Dance" is one of my favorite movies-on a personal note-and it hit home for me in so many ways. The music, the story line, the beginning, middle, and end in every way touched all my emotions. Going to see this movie I expected another teenage flick with a cool, mellow story, but I walked out of the theater-3 times-each time with such an uplifting sense. It shows that anyone can do anything that they put their mind to, be yourself, and things do happen for a reason.The drama, romance, musical, and teenage aspect of this movie just was totally "kick ass." I could go on and on about the brillance of this movie, but won't and would just like to say: for the "know it all" critics out there who put this movie down and "speak for all of us"; Just save it and let us enjoy this wonderfully, inspirational, entertaining movie.
