Ritmo caliente

I'm an 80s person i really don't remember this movie from 1984 but i love it now the dancing is awesome the soundtrack is to die for it has a warm feeling to it and it also features the lovely Gretchen palmer from the movie i got the hook up she played Lorraine so i went out and brought it i only watch it every now and then but its not a bad movie.Sidney poiter scored big with this film its very eighties with the jheri curls the clothes i wish i could turn back the clock to 1984 and we visit that movie.many of the actors were never heard from again but they gave a good performance I'm looking for it on DVD sometime soon. and I'm trying to find the artist that is doing the song when they are in the living room dancing if anyone know drop me a line.not so much of a break dance movie but i think they was trying to cash on but you gotta make it somehow i would like to see john Scott clough now wonder if he still has that curly hair

Obviously this movie is not a cinematic masterpiece, but I gave it a 10 out of 10 because it is the funniest effin' thing I have ever seen.

I used to watch it every day with my sister and brother when we were kids, and we'd try to do all the dances while falling all over the place and breaking lamps. We just found this in a closet yesterday, and I was so excited I nearly peed my pants.

If you want something to laugh your ass off at for an hour or so, watch this movie...it's got horrible '80s clothes, leg warmers, sick facial hair, really big bangs, and men in tights with very noticeable bulges. Totally hilarious.

21 years ago this movie was released and people are still watching and talking about it!! That is a success to me.

I feel this movie is worth, not only watching but buying or renting as well. I own it on VHS and I always have it playing while I am doing housework just for the good music in the background. With dancing being so popular now, ballroom, hip hop, and and other kinds of dancing, I feel this movie would do really well sold on DVD. If they can digitally master others then they can this one.

I consider it a "feel good" movie because they reach their goal in life. At the end of this movie you will have a smile on your face and be tapping your foot to the music. With Sidney Poitier directing how can you go wrong?

"Fast Forward" sends you a good message. Never give up!

Okay, so the acting isn't necessarily Oscar-worthy, and I'll be the first to admit that it's really pretty cheesy. But this movie was one of my favorites as a kid and it still brings back warm fuzzy feelings when I see it. The dancing is great--I knew every step when I was little--and you can't shake a stick at a great success story. For an 80's movie, I thought it was well done. Who didn't want to have a cool apartment with crates for tables and live with all of their friends? It's a film-version of the kind of life everyone wanted at some point. I know I would have LOVED to run away as a teenager and get a place with my friends--and to dance like that? I love this movie!!!!!

I enjoyed this film - dancing was good, singing was pretty good - girls were gorgeous especially Karen Kopins
