    Her Heart Had Salsa and Mambo

    In Houston, the aspirant to photographer Amie (Annabeth Gish) receives a complete Salsa and Mambo dancing course from her close colleagues and friends as her wedding gift. Her wedding with the wealthy and arrogant Jason (Daniel Cosgrove) is close and she intends to dance Salsa in the feast. Amie meets the Porto Rican instructor Nicholas (Kamar de los Reyes), and she feels a great attraction for him. When Nicholas bet with his former mate Cristina (Tessie Santiago) that he would teach Amie to be a great dancer, they daily train together for long periods and they fall for each other. Amie breaks with Jason, but is not sure about with whom she really wants to stay.

    What a delightful movie this "The Way She Moves" is. The story is very predictable, follows the success of other romantic comedies having the dance as the theme, but I liked this one a lot. The pair Annabeth Gish and Kamar de los Reyes shows a great chemistry; the Latin music score and the choreography are excellent; the conclusion of the romance is very funny; and the sexy Tessie Santiago is delicious, really a collyrium for the eyes. I found this movie surprisingly cute and pleasant and I really intend to see it again in the next future. My vote is seven.

    Title (Brazil): "Ritmo da Sedução" ("Rhythm of the Seduction")

    Absolutely one of the best

    movies I have ever seen....I simply loved the pairing of Annabeth Gish and Kamar De Los Reyes in this movie. They looked good together and danced well together. I can't imagine Annabeth not doing her best at any show or movie, but I have to say this was simply one of her best. I have to say that this movie deserves a big 9 and all of the stars in it as well...simply because I never say 10, no one is perfect. I would (okay I have) watch this movie over and over again. Romance at it's best right there on the screen.

    surprisingly enjoyable

    I didn't expect to enjoy this movie as much as I did. The part I enjoyed the most was watching Nicole Sullivan and her funny Texan sidekick. Annabeth Gish was pretty boring, and the male lead- Kamar was nice eyecandy. The Texan actors were great(really great,especially the sidekick and Aimee's brother played by Texan actor Lee Burns) and the cinematography was nice. It is a nice little movie that really makes one want to get a PR. boy and SALSA!

    annabeth gish is sooooo cool,,,how can anyone NOT love her????

    annabeth gish is my favorite actress. she, once again, had an outstanding performance!!! she is so sincere in her work, it is impossible not to feel a part of it! there's an amazing passion that screams out from her eyes and you can see she's REAL!!! there are a lot of fake celebrities out there and she is the most legit there is!!! SHE made the movie as best as it could be,,,the material was really weak and and the plot wasn't the best around, but i'd still buy the movie because she did an amazing job!!!

    Tremendously enjoyable

    This Sunday afternoon fare was very good indeed. The music, dancing, and representation of Hispanics in a positive light and not as the usual gang member, drug dealing, etc. was refreshing. It reminded one of the need for courage to be yourself and to follow your own dream not that of someone else. As to the actors, Kamar De los Reyes is quite the talent. His sensitivity and display of frustration not to mention his DANCING! What can I say but that his solo at the festival was incredibly beautiful. I would recommend it to anyone of my friends and will do so. Hope to see more of Senor Reyes in a leading role. Bring on the music!
