We shall!

Rating: 7/10 (11 September 2006)

Not bad, not bad at all. It's a remake of a Japanese film of the same title, and starring Jennifer Lopez, Richard Gere and Susan Sarandon. Lopez plays a dance teacher, Richard Gere plays an overworked corporate American and Susan Sarandon plays his wife. One evening, John Clark (Gere) misses his train and decides to take a walk before catching the next one when he spots a beauty(Lopez) in the window of a ballroom dancing class and decides the next day when he sees her again that he will take up dancing as a hobby. Now, you may be thinking that he is looking to have an affair, but that's far from the story.
The minute John arrives at the dance studio, the audience is given an in-depth look into the lives of those who pay good money to go to such studios to learn the art of dance. Some do it because they must learn how to dance for such occasions as their wedding day, some do it to keep in shape, some do it for sanity, some do it because if they don't they might lose their sanity and others, well you know.
When Beverly Clark (Sarandon) upon hearing one too many sob stories of cheating boyfriends and husbands at work, begins to notice that her husband has increasingly started to come home late, she hires a private detective, who sends out his boy, Scott(Played by a hilarious Nick Cannon) to keep an eye on John. Meanwhile, the detective has an eye for Beverly as well. John and Paulina(Lopez) get close but nothing more than friendship develops between them. When John realises the source of Paulina's pain he is inspired by it, as well as his funny co-worker played Stanley Tucci. Blink and you'll miss a cameo by pop singer Mya, she plays the bride of one of the studio's dancers. And there's also a nice song and video on the DVD entitled 'Sway' by the Pussycat Dolls.
