Feel good movie

Rating: 9/10 (20 August 2006)

As a dance lover, I knew I had to see this movie. I knew nothing of the lead actress going in, but was shocked to see someone who could hold their own in the role. Channing was an amazingly good dancer. As for the white-bread comments on here, having gone to an art school, its great to see a true representation of one. There are all different types of people that attend those, from the rich to the very poor, and all just want to be the best artist and person that they can be. Otherwise, they would not spend an average of ten hours more a week in school than the regular student. Bottomline is Jenna and Channing delivered entertaining dance moves throughout, and it was set to high energy feel good music. The characterization of "Skinny" was great, and brought the whole movie together. When I left the theater, I turned my radio up loud and car danced all the way home. It is what it is, and that's a good time.
