Corny

Rating: 5/10 (28 October 2004)

I expected J. Lo to be bad as usual, but I never expected her to be this bad. So she was suppose to have had her heart broken, but who on earth goes to work everyday like that. She put it on way to thick, that it was beyond annoying. Richard Gere on the other hand I expected more from. It is like as if her bad acting rubbed off on him or something. Their scenes together were real eye rollers, mind you the script for those scenes was pretty bad too. I was very happy with Susan Sarandon however. She helped make the movie more bearable. But Stanley Tucci was by far the saviour here. He was fabulous. funny, and lovable. He is a very talented man. I hoped for a bit more action on the dance floor, but what you do get is pretty good. Except for the ball room dance between Lopez and the other instructor, where they are trying to give a foretaste of better things to come for Gere's character and the other dance students. Her lip hung lower then her skirt. So over-dramatic. Bottom line if you go in expecting the worst ever performance from Gere and Lopez, your expectations will be reached. And you will enjoy Susan S. and the supporting cast.
