    A dance movie. I don't remember this one. I think I've watched this. But I think it's a great movie to watch for...

    Love this movie. Anything that is about dancing I usually like and this movie was one of them.
  • April 3, 2009
    A interesting piece about the world behind the scenes of dancing. Although some parts of this movie (especially the romance) could be severely improved, the dance is amazing and, all together, that's what this movie comes up to be.

    I don't know why it took me so damn long to watch this movie. I love dance movies, or should I say I love "GOOD" dance movies. The end performance was very enjoyable. I liked this movie a lot

    It was a little predictable, but the dancing was amazing as was the music. The characters were well protrayed and all around great movie.

    "Dance! Nothing left for me to do but dance! Got canned heat in my heels tonight yeah yeah!" ~Jamiroquai

    The film is 1/4ths a theater ballet show, 1/2 individual and group dancing, and the rest of it takes yo...( read more)u to each of the 3 students lives after getting in the ballet academy, all the while trying to exert their best efforts to be the right person to be selected to join the prestigious American Ballet Company.



    Dont be turned off with the movie poster and the plot, its actually a very beautiful movie. Ill just leave out my personal comments as to why I knocked off half a star for this film

    Directed by: Nicholas Hytner

    tHE STORY COULD HAVE BEEN BETTER. THIS MOVIE WAS NOT VERY MEMORABLE.
  • November 5, 2008
    The choreography and soundtrack are great. Whoever enjoyed Fame, would definitely love this one too
  • October 27, 2008
    I thought this movie was cute. It was it on the Oxygen channel.

    Don't ask me why I liked this movie so much. I couldn't answer that question. I guess I'm a sucker for movies about performance art/magnet schools. It let's me dream and shows me what I missed out on. So, point in case, a decent film with a reasonable storyline cocerning overly a...( read more)mbitious youth, most of which are pampered and probably pushed just a little too hard by their parents. I could've done without the romantic aspect, but a person can say that it WAS the plot of the movie. Fine, the audience wants love and conflict, but dance should shine on it's own without the soap opera. The actors in this film are very talented. I have watched this a few times. The final dance scene was a disappointment but the path to that point was strong. There was good pace. The characters weren't flat. The cast is comprised primarily of professional dancers. This isn't a musical, so you don't have to worry about cheesy, fantastical dance numbers that break out in the middle of a diner with the wait-staff joining in. If you aren't a fan of dance, pass on this movie. There won't be anything to interest you here. But to all those who do or have danced, this is a true gem, a pure joy to watch repeatedly. And an additional note, several "after school special" topics play a part in this film. The thing is, they are important to the story, as it draws you into their world, helping you understand just how different their lives are than the typical teenager. One of the most important and prevalent messages is concerning the unrealistic weight ideal for female dancers. You get to watch the struggle to live up to those expectations, because in reality, if ignored, may result in the premature end of an unrealized career. Remember, the actors are dancers, not Hollywood stars.

  • October 4, 2008
    Really good
    but seem like a classic, all the main characters do well in the end of the movie. The best dancer quits dancing cause its isnt what she though she loved and also is very sick. Another is a girl whos amazing at dance but has a bad attitude. and then theres another who...( read more) isnt the best dancer but has the haert and does the best in the end where shes doing what she loves, at the top

  • September 28, 2008
    a movie worth watching - neat ballet sequences intertwined with the dreams of the young dancers beautifully.
  • September 22, 2008
    Made me love ballet even more.














    This is a good movie!

    Sometimes it is better to do what you want and be happy rather than what you're good at being successful but miserable.

    Better than fame. Real dancers not body doubles (except for Zoe and Ilki). Set the stage for the most recent dance films.
