Havana Nights is the number 2 of dirty dancing; there has been a difference of opinion on this film, as with most films. I think it always depends on your taste of film, and I always think that the second part of a film never lives up to the expectations of the first. This is no exception, although I did not dislike the film it had a lot to live up to, Dirty Dancing, is one of the best selling films and most loved films, so this one was a hard film to live up to, although I do not think they did a bad job of this film, in which I will give my opinion later.

Dirty Dancing 2: Havana Nights is the prequel to the amazingly popular, l1987 film, Dirty Dancing. Havana Nights was released in 2004 and I am pretty sure that it was released straight to DVD although I am not 100% sure on this. The film had a budget of $25 million but has only made a little bit over that. Havana Nights is rated PG due to mild language and sexual references and it has a run time of 83 minutes.

My husband bought me this dvd for Christmas shortly after its release and I was so over excited on unwrapping it. I loved the original dirty dancing and would vote it my no. 1 film of all time and the only film I've watched probably more than 10 times.

The back of the dvd claims "He's going to show her the time of her life" another reference to the original. The Cast Diego Luna - ...  Read the complete review

When I heard this movie was coming out I couldn't wait!! Especially when I heard Patrick Swayze will be in it. I wasn't sure what to expect really, but by reading up on it I knew it wasn't going to be a follow on from the 1st Dirty Dancing film, but I was really excited as I knew it was going to be based in Cuba and included salsa dancing, both of which I love!! The film itself was based back in 1957 just before the Cuban revolution where Americans lived and Cuba was filled with lively Casinos etc ( mini Las Vegas) and the film was about an American family 'The Millers' who move to Cuba due to Mr Miller getting a job promotion.
