Ballroom dancing is something that I enjoy watching and in this it potray's th efforts that can go into it to be good at it and in this Richard geer is at his best.

This movie is the North American version of the original. It has an excellent story line. The actor selection was very good and they simply wouldn't let you down. Highly recommended.

THE PRODUCT WAS A BRAND NEW DVD IN MINT CONDITION STILL IN PLASTIC.A FUN MOVIE TO WATCH IF YOUR A FAN OF RICHARD GERE AND JENNIFER LOPEZ.LOTS OF DANCING SCENES AND THE MUSIC WAS GREAT.I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCT TO ANYONE.GRAET STORYLINE WITH A
FEELGOOD ENDING.

The 1995 original Japanese version of this story is absolutely fresh and delightful. This one pales in comparison.

The movie was in great shape and was shipped very quickly. I am very satisfied with Amazon and will continue to work on it

this movie is a remake of a Japanese film made in 1996.i haven't seen
the original,so i'll only comment on this,the 2004 version.This movie
is about a bored lawyer who has been married for nearly 20 years and
had the same job for a long time.he decides to spice up his life and
without telling anyone begins taking ball room dance lessons.Richard
Gere is John Clark,the bored lawyer.Susan Sarandon is his wife.Jennifer
Lopez is the dance instructor who John feels a connection to.Stanley
Tucci provides some light comic relief as one of the students.This is a
whimsical,light hearted movie .it is enjoyable and there are some good
performances.Gere in particular seems to really be having fun with his
character during the dance scenes.Lopez,however,comes off a bit stiff
and forced at times.Tucci turns in another great supporting performance
and is very funny at times.Lisa Ann Walter also provides some laughs
with her character Bobby.Richard Jenkins plays a detective named
Devine,hired by Clark's wife Beverly(Susan Sarandon)who suspects he may
be having an affair.Nick Cannon plays Devine's assistant.Susan Sarandon
is very good as Beverly Clark,but has a fairly small role in the
film.the film is a romantic comedy,emphasis on romantic,but as
previously mentioned,does have some comedic elements.the comedy is more
of the amusing,chuckling type of laughs.there is nothing which could be
called hysterical.if that's what you're looking for,this is not your
movie.the movie is fairly predictable,and has the usual feel good
ending,but arrives there a bit differently than i expected.Overall,i
really enjoyed this movie. 4/5
