Dance With Me
126 minutes (PG) EV
Director: Randa Haines
review by Jeff Young
Unimaginatively titled dance movie starring Cuban hunk Chayanne,
opposite Vanessa L. Williams, as a cold hearted choreography bound performer whose
career lounges in the doldrums until romance blooms with untrained Mr C. The
supporting players are a mixed bunch. Was the casting agency that desperate? Jane
Krakowski, the blonde sexpot legal secretary from Ally McBeal shows off
the sort of athletic moves she never quite manages on TV, Joan Plowright plays a
limber old biddy who aims to relive past quickstep glories, while grizzled old Kris
Kristofferson appears secretly embarrassed to be getting paid for this ballroom soap.
If you like salsa, and those Latin 'Come Dancing' competitions, this one's for you
and you're welcome to it. If not, then I doubt very much whether the skimpiest
costume and the fastest tango in the world offer entertainment value enough to
separate you from your hard-earned cash.
