This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

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

Maybe I have to be more into dance to understand this movie but I give it a 4. The only reason I watched it was because of Patrick Swayze being in it. It had some good dance moves. It was melodramatic for the most. I got bored pretty quick into the movie. I wish I could say something more nice about it. Glad I purchased it for a buck. Sure miss Patrick Swayze. The ending is a bit predictable. Would of enjoyed it more if they made it when they were younger. They waited too long to make the movie out of their experiences i believe. I enjoyed watching Patrick and Lisa dancing together especially after reading the books of Patrick and Lisa life together. It was also nice to remember Patrick Swayz in good health and doing what he loved, dancing.

I'm not really the best person to be voicing an opinion on this film. I bought it as a birthday present for my wife, who is both a dance fan and a Patrick Swayze fan, and she was, I think, pleased. She found it interesting, and very much liked the fact that it contained a lot of dancing, and it was dancing that you could actually watch. Also, the dancing was ballet-style modern dancing, and that's also a style she liked. So, on that level, it has to be marked a success.Me, I'm going to call it "The Patrick Swayze Dancing and Loud Shouting Movie." It seemed to comprise two elements - dancing (where, as noted, I'm not the best person to voice judgement as I don't normally care much for dancing, and this was no exception) and a soapy kind of plot to hang the dancing on where, I feel, I am entitled to voice my thoughts.I didn't think much of it. There was obviously something which had gone on at some point in the past between Swayze's and Niemi's characters, but it was kept a mystery until very late, and neither of them was able or prepared to actually communicate with the other about what was wrong (in much the same way as Peter Parker and Mary Jane in Spider-Man 3 where, come to think of it, there was also some dancing I didn't care for). So this bit of the movie annoyed me intensely - I just wanted to slap both of them.So, all in all, a successful birthday present for herself, but not a successful viewing for myself.

One Last DanceNot all movies have a psychological approach to them. A movies message can be delivered to its audience through various techniques. Within the movie One Last Dance contains various psychological comparisons. The movie showed the psychological ego, self- doubt and the infamous midlife crisis. During the beginning of the movie it was obvious that there was many different psychological aspects to this film. It became apparent to the viewers that this psychological technique was being used while the main character dances in the dance studio while it was very dark. While dancing he is remembering and almost being haunted by many different points in his life where he experienced many different things. The music is playing smoothly and gracefully and he is going through all of the movements to this dance in his head. While this is going on there is a tree branch lying across the floor. This dead tree branch represents the trio's choreographer who passed away before the show was performed. The darkness of the room represents the troublesome emotion that is being portrayed because of the death. The sheets that are being blown in the wind also symbolized the spirit that is haunting him as he remembers the hardships and suffering that all of the dancers had gone through under his instruction. Another point in time during the movie is when he falls. This fall represents when the woman of the trio had fallen. This implies the difficulty and failure of the project.One Last Dance has many different psychological associations. This dance movie had a very meaningful story. The story shows the hardships and beauty of dancing. Overall it was a very interesting and enjoyable dance movie that I would highly recommend to those who are studying dance through film.

"One Last Dance" is another one of those movies whose bad word of mouth will puzzle a lot of viewers. While the major subplot has been done a hundred times before (frequently better), the music and dance are superb. Further, while Lisa Niemi (Mrs. Patrick Swayze) is a pretty inept actress, her camera setups superbly capture the dance. Besides, "One Last Dance" boasts one superb performance, that of George De La Pena ("Max"). With this movie, Lisa Niemi, for better or worse, clearly establishes herself as both the brains and drive behind Patrick Swayze.Hopefully, "One Last Dance" will usher in a whole series of dance films, both comedies and dramas; and one could certainly do much worse than the dance team of Swayze and Niemi.I give "One Last Dance" a "7".
