Another movie that I really enjoyed but had so many bad reviews. If the movie is not for you then don't watch or comment to try to put others off. You know what the movie is going to be about if it is not for you, then fine but don't put people off that might like this movie. I am sure that any movie you recommend I will hate as I am not so eager to become a film critic. For the posers on this site if you say no then I will definitely watch. We all have different tastes, if a movie is not for you then move on, we don't want a biased opinion.
Just saw this tonight on New Years Eve here in Brisbane Australia. I saw where one reviewer said they considered leaving after 45 minutes. If I had not been with friends I would have left after half an hour. As it was (to my envy) some people actually left around the hour mark. I only went to see this because of Oscar talk and reviews. The acting was brilliant, but let down by a slow moving, uninspiring story line with very little plots or twists. In fact I felt some overacting from the cast in trying to save this movie. My friends also felt very disappointed after hearing the hype. No way is this movie Oscar worthy but as an actor Jennifer Lawrence could get a nod.
Why do people like the last reviewer post negative views on shows that that are of no interest to them. There are a lot of people that love dance shows and the human interest story's of the contestants. Look at the success of "Dancing with the Stars" worldwide. I am an ex professional Ballroom dancer and teacher so know something about dance. Would I write a review on that show either US or OZ, NO because I can't stand watching Judges and some Professional teachers that don't have a clue so I don't watch the show. Should I spoil it for the millions who love that show. No way, I will keep my opinion to my self. Now Got To Dance features so many dance styles its impossible to judge apples with apples. So as in all dance competitions it is in the eyes of the beholder. The judges are wonderful. Ashley, Kimberley, Adam and now Aston offer the contestants advice and offer support and enthusiasm you couldn't pay for. Although I don't always agree with the vote in results, many a career will be forged from this show. If you want 5th rate dancing because of c level celebrities judged by people who have never had to train someone from scratch to a solo competition performance. Then Dancing with the Stars is for you. Reality Heaven. But if you want to watch a Dsnce show with so many diverse styles and such an array of talent with judges who really care Go to Dance wins hands down. Before writing this review I just watched the last semi final on Got To Dance season 4 (We are somewhat behind in Australia) The talent on display wasincredible and my hands are still sore from clapping.
