Cannot remember how many times I have seen this film but it never ever gets boring. I absolutely love it! As a kid we would have sleep-overs and always watch Dirty Dancing. As an adult when the girls come over if we watch a film, Dirty Dancing is still top of the list! Possibly because the storyline is quite basic so it doesn't ...  Read the complete review

Although I actually secretly adored this film when I was younger (although I would never admit that to anyone and definitely not to my male friends who are always more interested in films where people shoot guns and there are explosions and it does no harm if there is an evil drug cartel involved somewhere) I don't think it has stood up very well ...  Read the complete review

This is one of my firends favourite films along with coyote ugly, the moolan rouge, Pride and Predjudice, and the sequel to dirty dancing - Dirty Dancing Havana Nights. The acting is of a very high standard, and ti draws you in. Johnny Castle played by Paterick Swayze adds a little eye candy for the female audience. Especially in the ...  Read the complete review

This film is almost 20 years old now which is frighetening! but is a classic chick flick that I am sure my daughter will love when she gets a bit older. Set in the 60's I think, it follows the story of Baby, a young girl on holiday with her family where she meets good old Paddy Swayze 'Johnny' and falls head over heels for him. Johnny ...  Read the complete review

I've edited this review as I stupidly gave away the ending, and as some people have pointed out, this is a big no no when reviewing films. Thanks for those that commented on that. I am grateful for your input, being fairly new at this. Anyway..... Dirty Dancing was a massive hit film of the 80s but is still going strong as it is now ...  Read the complete review

The phenomenom of Dirty Dancing has always been a precarious one. Visually, it hasn't aged well, and it didn't even look that great when it was first released. But for some reason, it has taken on a legendary status that may well come close to matching the success of Grease. Perhaps its the exceptional soundtrack, or maybe its just the simple ...  Read the complete review
