Rating: 5.0
Who can resist?
If you like/love Patrick Swayze and feel his loss the way all of us Baby Boomers do, then why not just own a copy? Yeah, the story is lame, that acting barely O.K., but who cares? Nothing makes us feel better than that last dance. The rest of the music is top notch and fun and the dancing fantastic. No one, but no one, would be caught dead dancing like that these days tho'or so it would seem. But again, who cares? It's also kind of fun watching the other dancers. Take a close look and watch them ham it up. It's hilarious. Also, having watched it several (who knows how many?) times, I finally noticed a young girl and boy who seemed to be showing up also in several key scenes. The producer's kids maybe? Bottom line, it was Swayze at his absolute best, gorgeous, hunky, sweet, perfect hair, beautiful shy smile. That's why we loved him in this movie and 'Ghost', I guess, and that's why we will miss him.
