Vanessa Williams said "Save the best for last.". I say "Use the humiliation the first time you watch it.". I can never be so disappointed at many recent movies to this day. Suitable for the "family" crowd, DANCE WITH ME is viewer-friendly and makes fine use of "light" entertainment. It's your contemporary update of Fred Astaire & Ginger Rogers with sex and passion in smooth, easy-going way. Still, I couldn't help but be left disappointed with another movie that would have had far greater potential. The writing goes through a one-way zone the wrong way, and should have been more intent on keeping it stylish and up to the point. We must discover the so-little interaction between Vanessa Williams and Chayanne, and instead, Kris Kristofferson makes better use of this all-important element. Yes, the two are happy together on the screen, but the true magic within them seems lost. The Spanish noise is well done, and overused to the extent of why producers can't find a different beat to really make it more tempting. High hopes suddenly ran dry for this acceptable film. It's not easy being nice.
