Susan Seidelman delivers a heartwarming and beautiful love story full of energy, emotion and uplifting moments. Leah Pipes and EJ Bonilla have great chemistry and look like they're on their way to be stars.
The dancing is well choreographed and the music is upbeat and exciting. Seidelman does a good job of balancing the sadness of the tragedy with inspiring scenes and a moving ending. The film has and amazing spirit and leaves you feeling happy and upbeat.
I would recommend this film to everyone. It's a sweet love story and gives the audience a beautiful look into an unusual world of dance.
This is a great date movie or would be fantastic on a rainy Sunday afternoon. It's like a good meal with a funny friend - familiar without being at all boring. And, yes, it has a message but it's not a "message movie." The filmmakers obviously set out to entertain and they do a great job of it.
The cast is fun and very good looking. And several of the characters are fresh and new, particularly Chantelle (Laverne Cox) who steals several scenes. EJ Bonilla is fantastic as the lead and does a wonderful love- sick puppy face (without ever over doing it).
Overall, a really enjoyable film that leaves you wanting to know what is next for these characters - as any good film should.
Sit back and enjoy every minute and every character. Mama lovingly tries to run a family that is way beyond her power. Her antics with a spray bottle of potion add a terrific touch to the story. The music will have you bouncing in your seat.
The two stars should not remain unknown for long--they are completely captivating. Two faces that you never get tired of looking at and which deliver believable emotions.
The comic touches are frequent and laugh-out-loud funny and never in poor taste. Bravo to the actors, dancers, writer and director.

Armando: [about the wheelchair ballroom dancing competition] So, if we decide to do this, we have six weeks. That's six weeks to get into shape, to learn new routines. So, I don't know; what do you guys think?
Kenny: [sullen] I don't know, man.
Chantelle: Honey, I'm in it to win it.
Armando: Right, so every wheelchair dancer's gonna need an able bodied partner.
Kenny: Yeah, man, where are we gonna get one of those?
Armando: Well, it just so happens, I may have a few volunteers.
