Summary: Save the Last Dance
Review: I thought that this movie was great and definatly high on my list of favorite movies! The acting was very good Julia Stiles and Sean Patrick Thomas were great and the supporting cast was convincing and grabbed your attention, sympathy and compasion. The plot was somewhat unrealistic but what movie isn't, that's what makes it so appealing. The themes were very good and extremly moving. I felt what the actors felt and actually i cried throughout a majority of the movie. The dancing was spectacular and being a dancer myself i found it very interesting. I definatly think this movie is geared towards teenagers. This movie was very good and insipiring.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Save the last dance for me!
Review: This movie was amazing. During the credits, we are introduced to Sara, a one-time ballet dancer whose mother just died. She is forced to move to the ghetto part of Chicago to live with her dad. As she slowly learns to fit in, she meets Derek, who is determined to fulfill his dream of going to Georgetown and becoming a doctor. Working together, they learn to overcome the odds and see their dreams come true. Julia Stiles and Sean Patrick Thomas performed Sara and Derek to perfection. With an intricately woven plot and complex characters, Save the Last Dance is a movie geared towards teens but passes through the generations to become a movie for everyone. There were people of all ages present when I saw it at the theater. Walking out, I heard nothing but good remarks. I cannot recommend this movie highly enough to do it justice.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: An Awsome Movie
Review: This movie is a must see! It has a very positive message in it. The message is to follow your dreams and not to give up no matter what people say! It also showed the struggles of loving someone of a different race. Even though they had their share of problems they managed to work it out. It was one of the best movies I've seen!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Just swell
Review: While watching the movie, I got right into it and felt all the same emotions. I couldn't become too attached because you could tell that Julia Stiles wasn't very attached to the emotions either. After watching the movie I thought it was good but I didn't feel completley satisfied. After thinking about it for a while, I realized that there were too many pieces missing, or just too many pieces. The film seemed to move too fast, and there was too much crammed in there. The previews focus on the dancing, the movie focuses on the interracial relationship. I understand that in order to capture a teenage majority's attention you can not have julia stiles dancing ballet through out the whole movie, which is why she was taught hip-hop moves, but the lack of real dancing as a whole, bothered me. The line said by one of the Juilliard judges was beyond cheezy, and learning why she was moving through the flashbacks wasn't effective. The struggling relationship with her father was either strained too much or not enough. It did seem strange to me, how Julia Stiles just fit right into her new school and how she didn't seem creeped out. When talking with her friend she didn't really complain all too much, and she didn't mention that the guy she was interested in was black. Also, one little peeve that I did have was that Sean Patrick Thomas barely knew Julia Stiles, they danced, then he was walking her home, and next thing you know he's teaching her how to dance. The chances of that are..... exactly.

To sum it up: It was alright. One of the few good movies I've seen in a while at the theatre, but left you hanging. Threw too much into your brain and didn't take it out.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: A chick flick
Review: A GREAT MOVIE TO SEE WITH THE GALS! I saw this movie with my boyfriend and I think he was pretty bored although he said it was good at the end. I love ballet and Julia....a perfect mix. Once again I liked the plot to this movie and how she has to adjust to TOTALLY diffent things than she is used to. I just recently had to do the same thing myself so I loved it. The dancing is hot and I think I got a few moves from it! A MUST SEE!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: a positive film
Review: This movie shows where America IS, if not already headed.

Sean Patrick Thomas is wonderful as the mild-mannered, handsome Derek, and Julia Stiles is just beautiful as Sera...

A great film...

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: An amazing movie
Review: This movie was the best that I have seen in a long time. I believe that it is both a teen and an adult movie. Julia Stiles and Sean Patrick Thomas both were simply at their best in this film. If you havn't seen it, go and see it and if you have, buy it! This movie rocked my world!

Rating: 5 stars
