Thinly veiled remake of William Shakespeare's "To Dance or Not to Dance, That is The Question."

Rating: 5/10 (3 November 2005)

Movie begins awkwardly, takes a while to find its rhythm, and then just as its movement begins to becomes captivating, it suddenly spins off and falls on its ballroom butt. Gere tries to come to the rescue during the fatal twirl and explains to us (by way of his shrew wife) why after an hour of learning the right moves he's suddenly stepping on the toes of the collective movie audience. Something about loving said wife too much (cue the tear) to ever want her to know that he wasn't satisfied with his perfectly boring life. I personally became mad hot with that explanation for leading a pretty decent movie into the dance hall dumper. Not to be a total naysayer, understated Jennifer Lopez is pretty good in this movie.
