Movie Review

Grade: B With some big movies out at theaters, Center Stage was not high on my list. I mean, I don't think I had even seen previews for it, and the only things I knew about this movie were from what I put on this web page. I had no clue what to expect, but, after finishing watching it, I must say that Center Stage is a surprisingly decent movie, if not suffering from a few flaws. Read the full movie review

My favorite, by ATE

February 16, 2006

The dances were really amazing. the storyline was also the best. You can really have a view of what it takes to be a professional ballet dancer. i my self is one but not as professional. I love dancing but have problems with my body. I had been dancing for 10 yrs but ill have to stop in order to focus on my studies in college especially that i am exected to be away from home in those years. As for my sister, this movie made her realize how hard it must be in entering a ballet company. Still we the advance class cant get enough ofthe movie. We event got a copy for ourselves so that we can be enlighted evry once in a while when we are problamatic in our dancing. This movie will surely make my "longing" for ballet to be lessen.
