worse thing ever to try and do a remake of this sorry to be harsh but abigail breslin for me is no baby houseman and she is far too large for the part just look at how skinny the orignal actress was and he is no patrick swazy thats for sure the chemisty here is non existant and I don''t know what they thought when they put this scrap heap of a movie together but once I watch something I watch it to the end..This is my honest opinion.

Definitely not as bad as everyone is making it out to be. It was enjoyable. And as a stand alone movie (ignoring the originl) it''s actually quite good.

Seriously, there is only one Patrick Swayze. Sadly, Colt Prattes just didn''t cut it for me. The remake is no where near as good as the original. The other reviewer is right, the chemistry between him and baby is virtually non-existent unlike the original.

A little dragging at some points. I do like that there is a little more to the story though. But yes, there''s no chemistry. I would have picked someone else to play baby.

Uhhh it took awhile to get over the fact that adigail is not a good baby..... Ok she''s alittle thicker...that''s fine....but at points it was like she was scared to interact with him or kiss him.... And the dance was sooo akward..... I loved Nicole s. Part tho ...... And the ending where she was watching YYY ??

Creo que yo con una peluca hacia mejor pareja que la actriz que eligieron. Fallaron en el casting, no tiene ningun sentido esta pelicula.

Everyone involved in creation of this deserves to be put down. Jigsaw on you, motherfuckers. Seriously this is god awful. Acting is several levels below argentinian telenovela, music butchered, scenes cheap, chemistry between main duo non existent, reason to exist none. I wanted to poke my eyes out and wash my ears with acid after watching this. Such an abomination of a movie. Nothing worse have ever been made.

Why? Really though, why? why? why?

Ficou-me queimado no cérebro. Pior remake de sempre!

Uma palavra define esta bosta de filme: constrangedor. Mau em todos os aspetos. Deplorável mesmo... e a Abigail Breslin é um pavoroso erro de casting. Em má forma, inacreditávelmente. E o filme, isto, de produção telenovelesca, vai se transformando em remake musical, estragando tudo (Tudo!) o que foi buscar ao original com uma tamanha tonteria, que dá vontade de tapar a cara com as mãos. Horrivel no que apresenta como dança e inclusive envergonha a salsa (e a mistela de estilos a fazer-se passar por dança). Um '"bom'" filme para se treinar a arte de rolar os olhos...

This is a remake of the original dirty dancing except it has better music. There's some better dancing too. My main issue with this movie is that the two main characters in my opinion don't mesh well together. They don't have good chemistry at all. Other then that I like the added scenes that were not in the original.

**BAD, BAD, BAD!** (SPOILER) You just can't help but compare this to the original. Johnny is no actor and Baby is no dancer. The lipsync was so noticeble it was annoying. The first scene back at staff quarters it looked like the dirty dancers were ready to jump into an orgy. I don't really care about people's weight, but this Baby was too chunky to be a dancer (you couldn't half tell, much!) Prattes is also stiff and seems to lack confidence. He certainly doesn't have the smoothness and grace of Swayze and his acting was wooden. I really didn't care about the parents marital dramas. This was supposed to be a love story between Johnny and Baby. Why did they completely destroy the last dance scene that was so iconic in the original. And just to add icing to the cake, the final scene, Johnny and Baby do not end up together. I would have liked that to be left up to the imagination as in the original movie. Dirty Dancing didn't need a remake. This is one movie I won't be watching again.
