Amazon.co.uk Review

Dirty Dancing was a cultural phenomenon that now plays more like camp. That very campness, though, is part of its biggest charm. And if the dancing in the movie doesn't seem particularly "dirty" by today's standards--or 1987's--it does take place in an era (the early 60s) when it would have. Dirty Dancing spawned two successful soundtracks, a short-lived TV series and a stage musical. It may be predictable, but Grey and Swayze have chemistry, charisma and all the right moves. --Kathy Fennessy, Amazon.com

First and foremost Cocktail is a star vehicle for Tom Cruise, then a paper-thin Horatio Alger story of a young bartender with dreams of get-rich-quick. Success is notable only for Cruise's immense likeability in contrast to a creaky plot and thinly drawn characters. Despite its shortcomings, this is worthwhile viewing for Tom Cruise fans. --Robert Lane, Amazon.com

Synopsis

Headstrong 17-year-old Baby Houseman hardly expects her family's usual summer vacation in the Catskills to be momentous. But then Baby spies Johnny Castle, the resort's dance instructor from the wrong side of the tracks. Johnny's facing a crisis: his dance partner and friend Penny is pregnant and has reluctantly decided to get an abortion. This leaves Johnny a solo act--until Baby agrees to take Penny's place. She has to learn how to dance first, however, and as Johnny teaches her the choreography's sexy, seductive moves, the two fall in love. But Baby's father believes that Johnny is the creep who got Penny pregnant, and he furiously orders Baby to end the relationship. Baby knows that Johnny's innocent--and with her feisty idealism and his dance talent, the two will prove to Baby's father that their love is worth fighting for.

5.0 out of 5 stars Loved it!!!, 10 Jan 2002
By A Customer
This is one of my absolute all time favourites and I still can't figure out why!! Is it the great music, corny dialogue, fantastic moves, Patrick Swayze's back, or could it be simply that I do enjoy a good old cheesy, "the good guys always win", predictable Hollywood ending. The storyline will definitely not test the old grey matter with vague symbolic inferences nor will it enthrall you with artistic direction and camera techniques, but if you're wanting a wet and miserable Sunday afternoon, "nothing else to watch on telly" kind of movie then this is it.
It's a must for everyone's video collection....you may even want to try out the moves yourself after you've watched it enough times!!

5.0 out of 5 stars I've Had The Time of My Life, 5 Jan 2008
By M. C. Batson "wanted82" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is amazing. I have loved this film for long as I can remember and can barely believe that it is 20 years old!! It is still as fresh as it was when it came out 20 years ago and it's one of those films that you can watch time and time again without getting bored with it.
Great storyline, great characters, great actors and great music make this film one of the best films from the last 20 years.
The 20th Anniversary Edition is good. It has bonus features that you won't get anywhere else with interviews from the two main characters/actors as well as original auditions and lots more. Worth buying even if you own the original version before for the extra alone it's worth it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant , 18 Nov 2007
This is a brilliant film i must have seen it multiple times. patrick swayze is gorgeous as johnny castle and jennifer Grey is just perfect as Baby. The dancing is brilliant and i always get hairs on the back of my neck in the final dance scene. There are lots of extras on this dvd including interviews, deleted scenes, etc. Just wonderful !
