This movie works for me. Yes there is some immature dialogue here and there and all turns out right in the end for the characters played by Swayze and Grey. However, it shows how love and affection can conquer all angles. It also shows the strengths and weakensses in both Swayze and Grey and Jerry Orbach for that matter. The Dance scenes are pretty captivating for the particular genre. Maybe not the most well developed story in the world but for a night when something relatively light will do, this flick will certainly fit the bill.
