Step Into... The Movies

Great song and dance tributes to iconic musical showstoppers. It was such an homage to the original artists by a whole new crop of talent. Well done Houghs! I give this TV film a 7 (good) out of 10. {Musical Tribute}

This is very rushed. It packs so much into 42 minutes, so many classic dances. I would have loved them to be complete without truncating the songs. There stuff between the dances is also largely a load of fluff. But the passion that the Hough's have for these great classic dance works is palpable and it is enjoyable experiencing them along with them. Dirty Dancing for the finale was the highlight. Definitely worth a watch.

This was so beautiful and magical! The Houghs are so talented and they work well together. Derek is unbelievably talented and in a class all his own...Julianne is great too, but Derek is a rare gem. He's so talented. This felt a little rushed with so much to pack into 42 minutes, but the Dirty Dancing homage at the end was fantastic....so beautiful and just the right amount of original choreography mixed with today's dancing. However, even though Derek is amazing, my personal opinion is that Harry Shum Jr and Julianne stole the entire show with their Beauty and the Beast dance. I didn't even know who Harry Shum Jr was before this dance, but omg...you better believe I know who he is now. He could give Derek a serious run for his money. His dance with Julianne was gorgeous...the choreography was absolutely exquisite and their chemistry in the dance is beautiful. I've watched it 5 times on repeat and I'm still amazed. If you have a Disney+ subscription, you have to watch this!

Loved the tap dancing! I wish they would have done more dancing from before the 70's...starting with 20's...both Derek and Julianne so talented! The 80's we're so fun and so much more could have been done for that era.

On the heels of the series "The Real Dirty Dancing"---which was a competition designed to celebrate the now-iconic film---comes this offering from Derek and Julianne Hough. "Step Into" is a re-creation of many classic movie dance scenes, and it succeeds wonderfully.

The brother-sister team, as producers and stars, have created a beautiful tribute to the dancing of "Singin' in the Rain" and "Saturday Night Fever", among others. The production values are high. The cinematography and editing are beautiful. And the dancing itself is superb. Derek and Julianne surpassed my expectations.

I have only two complaints: I would have enjoyed a classic Astaire-Rogers dance number. And some of the dances were so good, I wanted them to continue. Well, you can't have everything. But I hope this production was successful enough that they come back with another, longer tribute that is even better.

Special mention to Kenny Ortega who, besides lending his credibility, displayed such emotion and enthusiasm for the project that it was touching.
