Warm-hearted spoof on ballroom dancing from Baz Luhrmann, in which a shy dancer falls for the maverick son of a local dance school owner.

I thought the movie was enjoyable once you got through the rather confusing beginning. I liked the music and I thought the costumes (especially the dresses) and the make-up was interesting and kind of weird. The dancing was great too. I thought the characters were insane but I found them amusing. I liked their accents. The ending was sort of cheesy but I enjoyed the movie overall and would recommend it to my friends and family. You don't have to enjoy ballroom dancing to enjoy this film - don't judge a film by its name!!!
