आलोचक समीक्षाएं

A pelvis-gyrating, ponytail-releasing, shirt-unbuttoning good time.

It's only possible to have the time of your life once, and, for this franchise, that was in 1987.

Contains all the elements of a satisfying teen genre picture, but they've been compromised out of existence.

There are two sparks of light amid the trifling dialogue and bad faux-'80s love-on-the-beach montages in Havana Nights, and they are the film's costars.

The dance sequences might have saved it, were it not for the fact that director Guy Ferland seems to have learned everything he knows about (over) shooting and (blindly) cutting such scenes from watching "Moulin Rouge" and "Chicago."

It's disappointing the film is so sketchy and underdeveloped. The filmmakers may have sold their story short.

Silly, misguided, formulaic and largely a piece of trash, but it's not quite a disaster. There's the dancing and the music and the sunlight.

It's one of the rare films for which a blooper reel would be redundant.

This belated "reimagining" is as beguiling as a dried-out palm tree.

Havana Nights es mucho frío -- the only titter of excitement comes in a cameo from a strangely reptilian Patrick Swayze.
