Rating: 4.0
A cute, time capsule look into love at a rich people's summer camp
I didn't use to love this movie. I found it to be overrated. But upon reviewing years later, all grown up, I find that it's not as bad as I originally thought. What gets me is the Johnny/Baby relationship. Whenever they aren't dancing or in bed, it looks like she's just a little kid pining for him and he doesn't want to actually be around her. It's a weird tandem, that actually ends up taking the viewer out of the viewing experience. Penny's character always kind of grated on me as well, especially the way she speaks.Overall though, it's a very interesting movie that is easy to watch, has some very sexy love scenes and great dance scenes. I'd say though that it's not appropriate for younger kids, although I think alot of young kids have been allowed to see this.P.S. The ending is just movie magic :)
