A bit of a cheesy show but still one of my favs from the old days!!! Love the music & clothes takes me back to the 80's!!!
By Mark Twain
Format:DVD
The Forbidden Dance is a fun movie; badly acted, horribly directed and cheesy, yet strangely engrossing and loveable. It tries to be serious, but fails for the most part because everything about it is so dated. Yet, it is energetic and lively, with upbeat songs and very HOT dancing. You'll ultimately find yourself addicted, without knowing why. Fans of Laura Harring (Mulholland Dr.) should definitely seek this out to see her in an early role. It is much better than the similar Lambada, released in theaters on the same DAY in 1990!!! As fun trivia, Lambada producers sued successfully to have the word "lambada" removed from "The Forbidden Dance"'s official title, though only "The Forbidden Dance" uses the song "Lambada" which launched the short-lived dance craze. The title is now used for the DVD release.
Format:DVD
I really enjoyed this movie, i think it'd be even better if remade with newer actors but it still had me interested! I recommend it to anyone over the age of..oh..12 or 13 because after all it is a sexual dance.

Absurdity
Aside from how attractive I personally find the lead actress, this movie is a complete and utter waste of time. Period.

The power of suggestion is powerful. The rating systems are relative, because this was the most sensuous movie I have ever seen. Read more

The Forbidden Dance
It could have been named The Forbidden Subject, since that's the point of the movie. Anything about the environmental havoc being wreaked on the Amazon is a rare statement,... Read more

A powerful ecological/phenomenological statement
Many small-minded film reviewers have dismissed this as a simple dance movie. Wrong, wrong, wrong. In fact, the Lambada, as used our protagonist, the Princess, is an inverse... Read more
