Summary: This movie is better than "Planet of the Apes"
Review: I can still remember the first time I saw Dirty Dancing. It was just after I watched my favorite movie "Planet of the Apes" for the 27th time. It wasn't nearly as good, but the part where Baby dances with Martin and Johnny gets mad is funny. I also enjoyed the scene where Lisa is kissing Brian and her boyfriend Chris walks in. Whew! What a predicament. You should buy this movie. It's pretty good.

Summary: Dirty Dancing
Review: First saw the movie last week, now I've seen it 20 times! Love the music, dancing, and the plot. Reminds me a lot of Footloose and Grease. If you liked those movies, you'll also like Dirty Dancing. Can't wait to get the soundtrack.

Summary: My most favorite movie !
Review: I have been watching this movie since i was 9 years old (which wasn't so long ago) and I have loved it all those years. This movie makes me feel so romantic and in love that I sometimes cry! Baby and Johnny are in such love that I always wish I had something like that. I love all the music and my favorite part is at the end when they dance the last dance ! They do such a good job it's phenomenal, and it wouldn't be if they weren't the ones doing it. If you love to watch good movies you have to see this. Even if you don't like romantic movies you have to see this. I'ts the best movie ever and giving it only five stars isn't enough!

Summary: Extremely overated with mediocre dancing...
Review: If you've ever seen any truly inspired or exuberant dancing you'll find this film very run of the mill. The script is very predictable with characters that aren't particulary sympathic or endearing.To see some good dancing check out 'Dance with Me' with Chayanne and Vanessa Williams.

Summary: Dancing, yes. Everything else, take a walk.
Review: One of the doofiest movies to ever enjoy any kind of financial success. A musical rehash of that old, old, old story about the guy and the girl from the wrong sides of the tracks who find ways to break down the barriers between them. In this case, it happens to be dancing. Big deal -- it could be chess, computer programming, or snow-shoveling, but if it isn't done with a scintilla of intelligence or wit, it's not worth watching. And as far as dancing goes, this movie features some of the flashiest, most over-choreographed dancing ever put into a movie. We're not looking at people dancing for fun; we're looking at a cattle call for a Broadway chorus line. Plus, what's really enraging is that it never comes out and declares what it's really about: that the girl is Jewish and the guy is Italian, and that the whole reason their romance is forbidden is ... you get the picture. "Dirty Dancing" -- what a great title, what a wretched movie.

Summary: THE TIME OF YOUR LIFE
Review: It is awfully hard not to get swept up into the nostalgic heat and sentiment of this unabashedly, and well-done, teen romance. It is, by turns, sexy, funny, melodramatic, jamming (what with that soundtrack chock full of some of the best pop hits of the 60s mixed with a few great new songs) and campy. Yet the overriding feeling of melancholy and wistfulness, portrayed with real talent by Jennifer Grey, as the perfect Baby, transforms this movie into something lasting, something to really love. Cynthia Rhodes is absolutely riveting -- as usual -- in the second female lead; she is a spectacular dancer and electrifying whenever she is on the screen. The aching feeling of first true love/lust/whatever, here directed at hunky Patrick Swayze, who is by the way an excellent dancer, comes to full flower at a Poconos resort. As all manner of soapy subplots move through their predictable paces, we are treated to the transformation of our young heroine and any number of delightful musical numbers, capped off by the irresistably romantic Time Of My Life -- that feeling of moving through a romance that has somehow changed your life is captured with a rare sweetness, and it stays with you.

Summary: Great Movie but the Special DVD features aren't that special
Review: This is an awesome movie, but I held out buying the original DVD until they came out with a Collector's Edition DVD with special features. As it turns out, I was somewhat disappointed by the special features. The commentary was good, but the featurette was only about 7 minutes long. Also, the 3 music videos were pretty bad quality (I am sure they were transferred off of tape that was about 15 years old). Also, the musical didn't really hold my interest. However, this DVD has so many extra features that if you only like half of them, that is still quite a bit.

Summary: Whew! After all these years - still has the magic!
Review: Can't believe I watched it on tv twice in a row - my hubby snickered and wouldn't watch it with me - at 33 yrs. old you would think maybe it wouldn't appeal as much as when I was 21 but - WOW! It is a beautiful love story which, hopefully, many of us ladies can identify with. The dance scenes where she keeps getting embarrassed, tickled and giggles and they keep repeating it until she gets it "right" - yowsa! Hot stuff! I have to say this is the most sensual and sexy movie I have ever viewed - and basically no nudity - what chemistry. Anyhow, will have to break down now and buy the video - can't stand to have to wait for it on tv again or rent it multiple times. Enjoy!
