Ask Me to Dance

The screenery was beautiful. Tried is some set that show an underwear bead room as well as an under watery dinninf and party area some of the water screen show both fish and algae one of the screen show her looking for interesting object and finding one this an couldn't be miss and it a great one indeed the conflict was exactly has I expected it and like wise common for this premises combine with an ideal of exotic trophical. This is a great one indeed and it all came to my satisfaction. I really enjoyed the movie even every one around me really liked it. The most suitable part is the last screen. Can wait for next.

I went with a group of friends and we all laughed out loud! We often talk about how hard it is to date when you're over 40, and this movie nailed it in a funny and touching way. The speed-dating scene was hysterical. Tom Malloy (Jack) was endearing (OMG his scene with the cat!)and believable as the geeky IT guy looking for love, and Briana Evigan (Jill) was enchanting to watch--I'll definitely be looking for her in other films. I enjoyed the escape from reality and found myself wishing I lived somewhere where all the bar patrons knew how to dance like in the movie. The only reason I didn't give it 10 stars is that I wanted to see Jack and Jill's relationship evolve. In other words--I wish it had been longer!

A gypsy woman predicts, that Jill (Briana Evigan) and Jack (Tom Malloy), will achieve love in four days. So, you already know where Ask Me to Dance (2022), is going. This film has the normal, rom-com, modern-day, movie tropes, including meeting the bipolar girl, at the speed-dating event. When the old, gypsy lady meets Jack, she hands her cat to him and just before the edit-cut, it looks, much like, the cat wanted to scratch his eyes out. The casting choices in this film are weird. I don't get Tom Malloy as the leading man. He bites his lower lip too much and makes weird faces. And, how unoriginal to name your main characters, Jack and Jill. Mario Cantone (Sex in the City, 1998-2004) plays Jill's friend, Patrick. Briana Evigan is the daughter of actor, Greg Evigan, who for people over 45, know him from the TV-show, BJ and the Bear (1978-1981). After Mario Cantone, the biggest name in the film, with veteran-creed, is Joyce DeWitt (Janet from Three's Company, 1977-1984).

Ask Me to Dance (2022), feels like an expensively, long, college film. It smells like, the low budget, independent film variety of romantic comedies, that go straight to video/streaming. However, this dreary, independent, rom-com has moments strong enough to get an E For Effort, but it is a tough watch to see. DeWitt's character is head-scratching, with a weird, southern accent, mixed with a granny-type of Mrs. Roper, if she had a carry-permit. This approach to her character is so bad, it seems out of place. You don't really even like her much. Also, the dancing isn't that very exciting either and the film, ends like a wedding video. Who needs that? However, let's give credit, where credit is due, especially since Tom Malloy was pulling triple duty, as not only just the main actor, but also the writer/director of Ask Me to Dance (2022). It's also evident, that Malloy and Evigan give it their best with the dancing scenes. If Malloy had hired another actor for the Jack role, things may have worked-out better.

PMTM Grade: 4.5 (E) = 5 IMDB.

Went and saw Ask Me To Dance this weekend and we loved it. We were laughing and smiling the whole movie. You can easily put yourself in the co-stars Tom Malloy and Briana Evigan shoes for their struggles and frustration to try and find love. One of the most heartwarming, delightful and funny romantic comedies you will see for a long time. The supporting cast were terrific as everyone has those members in their family or circle of friends and can definitely relate to them. I am not a dancer but I truly loved the dance scenes and could feel the passion when they danced. I highly recommend this movie if you want to go see movie full of love, comedy and romance. If you liked Sleepless in Seattle you will love this movie.

Mario Cantone is fabulous and very funny as Patrick. Carter surprised constantly as you never know what he will say next. This is a movie about finding someone who sees life as you see life not trying to change you. Briana and Tom had great chemistry apart in their journey to find love and we all can relate to the dates gone bad. Briana's warmth shines and individual characters are allowed to shine. Watch out for "psycho girl" who quickly becomes a wedding problem. The dancing was great beginning to end! Oh, and Kurt Angle!!! Joyce DeWitt looked great and was not what you expect from her which was fun. I did not think of Tom as a cat person, I thought a French Bulldog would be more his style!
