They forgot to bring the jokes
"Let The Dance Begin" ... hmmm .. a comedy film where they forgot to bring the funnies.
The director and the writers need to explain what they thought they were doing. They either don't know anything about comedy, or they had a brain spasm.
The expression on the face of the male lead in the poster, gives more giggles than his entire performance in the movie. In many scenes, he has many perfect opportunities to create explosive laughter, but the script or direction did not allow this.
And there are indeed many threads that could easily be woven into a really funny movie, a fake funeral, a jealous wife, a playboy husband, an old affair, (No spoilers as the trailer shows this) but there are many other situations where the audience could be rolling in the aisles with laughter ... but NOPE.
European films can be hilariously funny ... this ain't one of them.
