Suman Roberson It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.

Janae Milner Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

Roxie The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

blackpopsicles Having quite enjoyed the first movie this second one felt like it was cheap and rushed. The main character of Sara being played by a different actress was the first thing that threw me off, and I had a hard time pretending it was the same character. The plot dealt with pretty much the same issues as the first movie, being into ballet then finding Hip Hop.. um, didn't she already do that in the first movie? It felt like they were just repeating what had already happened instead of continuing the journey. Columbus Short made the movie for me, didn't really know that much of him before but loved his performance and he was a likable character. The dancing didn't seem nearly as good in this movie either, and I'm assuming that is down to the editing rather than the actually choreography. I know they used some of the same choreographers (Rich & Tone) as they did in the first movie. Not sure how many they had though. The battle between Sara and Candy seemed way too staged and didn't give the image of a real club battle to me. The first film had quite a gritty vibe to it whereas this film was a lot lighter but less believable.I wouldn't say don't watch the movie because there are good parts, but don't expect anything like the first film.

Claudio Carvalho Sara (Izabella Miko) joins Julliard in New York to fulfill hers and her mother dream and become the prima ballerina of the school. She befriends her roommate Zoe (Aubrey Dollar) and Miles (Columbus Short), who gives classes of hip-hop. She has ballet classes with the rigid and famous Monique Delacroix (Jacqueline Bisset) that she idolizes and Monique requires full commitment, discipline and hard work from her students. When Miles, who is a composer that researches sounds, invites Sara to help him in the dance choreography of his music, Sara's passion for hip- hop arises and she falls in love for Miles. When she is assigned to perform Giselle in an important event, she feels divided between the technique of the ballet and the creative work offered by Miles."Save the Last Dance 2" is a messy romance, full of incoherencies. For example, Sara's dream has always been to join Julliard and become the prima ballerina. Her mother died while driving to see her audition. However, when she has just accomplished success and recognition, she concludes that ballet is a mechanical repetition of steps and movements and she throws her promising career in the garbage in an absurd impulse. The relationship between Miles and Monique is ridiculous. I could list many other flaws in the story, but "Save the Last Dance 2" is also pleasant and entertaining if the viewer does not think much about the plot. Last but not the least, Izabella Miko and the dance choreography make it worth. My vote is six.Title (Brazil): "No Balanço do Amor 2" ("In the Swing of Love 2")

melvin-1 Sarah Johnson had a lot of talent before her mother died but gained a lot more talent having to live in the Chicago ghetto (A lot of talented people come from the ghetto). Sarah gained the talent to dance hip-hop, even to use it in one of her audition dances for Julliard. Sarah was caught in a dilemma of choosing ballet or hip-hop and she finally felt in her heart that performing hip-hop was better than trying to be a famous ballerina. She had a new lover, new friends and a new life. There is no interracial problem but she does have a new black boyfriend (last one dropped he for his scholarship. The basic story is did she make a mistake going for Julliard.

Adam Williams for those of you who have seen it anyone notice how the film didn't actually go anywhere? it just sort of ......stopped. so there was a lot of lardy dardy dancing, which is to be expected. but thats it. The plot line sort of fizzles out. Runs very similar to the first one.So ballet isn't for her. whoop de do. Nothing comes of that woman she meets outside smoking a cigarette. "come see me if you want to talk about anything" does she... no! a better ending would be that woman sets Sarah up for some choreographing interviews for big hip hop dancers. or something anything but the ending that was on there. I say again Worst ending ever
