The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

There is something to be said about non-actors acting. And that's they should never under any circumstances be actors. The acting in this movie as atrocious. And when it's not atrocious, the AVR is. Seriously it's like half the lines in this movie are recorded after the fact and just spliced into the movie like that. This is not acceptable. This is why boom mikes were invented. The story itself is pretty unoriginal. Pretty & rich girl who dances has to go live with her father in Panama City for the summer. There, people break into dance all the time and the hotel seems to be a portal into a world where people act out scenes from movies, quote Shakespeare, walk around on stilts and dance. All the time.There she meets the handsome dishwasher who also dances. At least that's where he normally works because we see him having to clean up rooms as well. Don't ask, it makes no sense but it allows them to introduce this old man who plays a part in the movie later.There's trouble brewing because one of the managers at the hotel also has his eye on the girl and it turns into a thing between him and the dishwasher guy. This manager also dances I might add. I think everybody in Panama City does or is implied to in this movie.We're introduced to a fourth member who is also a dancer and the dance partner of dishwasher boy. There's supposed to be some kind of chemistry there but I can't see any.Typical plot is as follows. Daddy wants his daughter to date the manager guy but she's rather date the dishwasher guy. His dance partner also wants to date the dishwasher guy so we have both guys wanting the rich girl. And both girls wanting the dishwasher guy. Lots of dancing follows, third act breakup, they get back together and practice for the big dance contest. The old man turns out to be an old dance instructor and helps with their choreography. Of course, what else is there? Rich girl and dishwasher guy wind up together. And the manager and the other girl do as well, or maybe they're just dance partners. I'll admit by this point I wasn't paying much attention.But as I said. At least the dancing is good. The rest of the movie is just wretched. So unless you just want to see some dancing, don't bother with this one.

Every single line in the movie sounds like it was done via ADR! The acting is wooden and amateurish. The plot is a rehash of every other love story from the "wrong side of the tracks", and it's not even a good love story. Even the costuming is basic! At least the dancing is good... But, if the only good thing I can say is that the dancing is good, then it's not a very good movie...

I have become especially fond of dance after many years of working at a university and learning many of the nuances of good dance. With that said, I would just guess that anyone who would not like this movie, simply doesn't like and appreciate the incredible art forms of dance displayed in this movie. Some of the acting was a little amateurish, yes, but let's be real, this is more about dance than acting. The storyline is very predictable, but but hey, what's wrong with boy meets girl. Especially, Richgirl and poorboy. Getting back to the dance, it was exciting, and truthfully I didn't want the movie to end Whitney Carson and Chehon were fantastic. Chehon had more energy and movements than I've seen of any male dancer. Some compare this to dirty dancing. Well clearly the budget for dirty dancing was higher, but not the talent. Chehon could dance circles around any of the cast for that movie Whitney stayed with him and had some moves of her own highly recommend if and only if you have an appreciation for dance.

A must see movie. The storyline is perfect with a beautiful love story. A movie for everyone.Great production,great dancers,great director and producer. The sound in the theater was great. David Winters is an Icon in the entertainment industry. I have seen the movie more than five times and see more messages in the story every time I watch it. There is many messages in the movie to a meaning of life for family and friends. I give this movie two thumbs up!!!! The music was great. The choreography was perfect. Location was beautiful. To see David dance after so many years was just awesome. A sequel? Lets cross our fingers! Can't wait to see what David Winters has up for next production.
