OK, so obviously everyone has the right to an opinion but...

Rating: 8/10 (8 April 2003)

I think it's really astounding that 222 people gave this movie a 1!!!! I didn't go into this movie expecting much more than another teen formula movie but I thought it was a lot more than that. Yeah, there are cliches, but the best thing about this film is how uplifting it is. It's about dreams and love and loss and finding the way through to lift yourself up to that place. Julia Stiles (who I can't stand) was actually good in this film. Mekhi was great (as per usual) and the rest of the cast were all good too.
But... it's the dancing. The dancing is what makes it special. No, it's not like watching the Turning Point or White Nights, but it reminds one how both music and dancing are the common language of the world and when you watch this movie, the dancing to the music lifts your soul a little higher.
A fun movie - definitely not The Hours, but great for it's genre.
