    I watched it twice in 1 day. The movie is perfect I think. There is no scene that you can "fast forward" it and dont wanna watch it again. The screenplay is a simple realistic story (still interesting enough), but Its the direction which is outstanding and makes something great out of the movie.
    The movie is pleasant, motivating and inspiring. Tierd of living in the fantasy world, I realy needed someting this real and factual to promote the sense of working and trying and doing the best, in me.
    The soundtrack is exciting and well-chosen (lots of good hiphop tracks). The dance scenes are cool and Julia Stiles is the man!

    I really liked this movie. It shows the couple perservering in their relationship and shows that not every relationship is without speedbumps. It shows the girl adjusting to a new school and finding out that no matter what you shouldn't give up on your dreams.

    It's actually quite a typical film about trying to fit in and be accepted, but as Julie >Stiles plays in it, for me it stopped being typical, but rather exceptional.

    I don't think I was the right market for this movie. Nothing in it was believable the fake "tough" guy came across as pathetic.

    Save the Last Dance (2001)
    Directed by Thomas Carter
    Starring Julia Stiles, Sean Patrick Thomas, Kerry Washington, Fredro Starr, Terry Kinney

    ĞDerek: "Stepps" ain't no square dance.
    Sara: That's ok, I'll dance in circles, probably around youğ

    A girl who is a very promising ballet dancer has to move from her hometown to Chicago because of the terrible accident that caused her mother's death. Now in Chicago, living with her father who is a member of Chicago Jazz band she has to go to a school where Sarah is one of only a handful of white girls going to this school. She has to choose between dancing and real love other ways she is in danger of losing both.

    A really good movie that includes some key factors like racism, family relationship, love and career choice. It is witty and funny at times but overall it shows some major problems we have to face in our real world.

    Acting was far above average. Once again Julia Stiles gives a stunning performance; she shows good face expressions and body gestures and her ballet dancing were really intense. Perhaps she was the only notable character but Sean Patrick Thomas was good in his role as Sarah's boyfriend and Fredro Starr looked perfect as Sarah's father.

    I liked the storyline, also it was a typical love story which is no big deal but they played it really well in this case. Finally special effects, well not much to say really but there were some shooting scenes which was enjoyable and rather good so it was alright for this movie.

    It was good and it went really steady so I felt like it was a good movie with some good acting and a simple storyline. Yes, there is a sequel to that but I think they really messed it up by making a sequel to this, as the film looked good on its own. Like I said it is a really simple film, but even the simplest thing can be really complicated.

    Save the Last Dance is no masterpiece or no "big deal" movie but it touches some important questions and it is entirely enjoyable for teenager audience.
