Strictly Ballroom (1992)
5/10
It's a fun romantic comedy about ballroom dancing world, where innovation is absolutely unacceptable. Tired of traditional stiff steps, the protagonist dances away against the conventions of the corrupt jurors and predetermined family. He has support from very few people, neglected romantics.
The movie has funky steps, few analogies, and great camera work in relevance to characters. Throughout the movie, main characters go through artificially fast progress. On the other hand, other characters stay as extreme in their artificiality as they first appear in the beginning of the movie. The good guys win, and the bad guys lose.
Final word.
This movie will make you grin few times. If you are not into ballroom dancing, pick something else to watch.
