Plot: Inspired by a true story, Antonio Banderas stars as internationally acclaimed ballroom dancer Pierre Dulane. The film revolves around a professional dancer who volunteers to teach in the New York City...( read more read more... ) public school system. But when his classic methods clash with his students' hip hop instincts, he teams up with them to create a new style of dance and becomes their mentor in the process. "Take the Lead" co-stars Alfre Woodard and marks the feature directing debut of veteran music video helmer Liz Friedlander.

    Another dance movie. very energetic yet it feel like its been done before. Like antoinio Banderas though so that ups the star rating for sure due to his charisma

    Let down by the plot mainly. It's predictable, yes but it has some pretty sauve moves and the Banderas charm adds to the good-feel factor of the movie

    Antonio Banderas looking for a career revival. That's all there is.

    Oh, and you could also say that its a big rip-off of Dirty Dancing, Saturday Night Live, and every dance movies out there.

    This was a cute movie, but ballroom dancing is hard to do; there is nothing sissy about it.

    Take care all,
