aloyoon hi this the first time i wrote any thing in IMDb but i couldn't help myself i want to warn people about this movieif you are thinking about watching this movie believe me just don'tthe acting was awful no dialogs it is like they forgot to write the script the story also awful there is no point of the movie it is not even a movie it was veryboring no dialogs no acting nothing i really mean it nothing what a Waste of timejust believe me don't watch this thingif it was up to me i would rate this thing under zero
russetfur This movie is without a doubt the worst movie I've ever seen. It had no visible plot whatsoever. I didn't see anything that even looked like plot lines. It was the most pointless thing that has ever graced the planet. The people didn't speak loudly enough and we had to turn up the volume of the TV even though it made the music far too loud. It could have been done better. The movies 'Centerstage', 'Step Up', and 'Save the Last Dance' are much better depictions of our world. Being a dancer myself, I thought the choreography for this movie could have been a lot better. The dancing was utterly boring. I didn't even bother to watch the whole movie. I was falling asleep the whole time. In my opinion Neve Campbell doesn't measure up to real professionals like Gillian Murphy or Nina Ananiashvili. She's not even close. In conclusion, I think this movie was very poorly made and I would like to see it remade with better sound quality, better acting and better dancing, but above all, there needs to be a better plot because the current one is horrible!!!
Pookyiscute I was pleasantly surprised with this piece. It was not at all how I had expected it, and was remarkably taken aback, by how brilliantly executed the entire film really was.Neve Campbell, though I'm not a fan, did not add as much to the film as one might expect. It's not focused primarily on her, though she is the star, which is why the film might actually work as well as it does. Some might find it slow, yet I found it to be just the right pace, with just enough romance behind it in the background, to keep you watching.The greatest thing that the film offers, after the fact that it is brilliantly and beautifully filmed, is that it allows the audience to be involved in everything that's going on. It makes you feel as though you're apart of the group, or rather 'The Company'. It's an exceptionally good film, and while there are moments, that do tend to focus almost too much on the dancing sequences, that is after all what this film is all about. Dancing. And more to the point, ballet.James Franco is cute as usual, and although his presence certainly doesn't go unnoticed, he as well as Campbell are mere puppets in the director's film, rather than making you actually feel like they're real characters. Although, I did sense a nice chemistry between the two of them, it still would have been better with more well known, and accomplished actors.If you're not into ballet, this is not a film you are going to like or be excited about. Obviously don't watch it. Basically, it's about dancing, and the company that these people work for. Nothing more or less. If you're looking for a romance, go check out 'Sleepless in Seattle', because this is a dancing movie. The romance part is just on the side.However, if you like realistic films, that make you feel apart of the characters' (in this case dancers') lives, then this is your film.Very good, and pleasantly surprising. Though, it is just a one time watch.
vladimirputin69 Without a doubt, this is the worst movie I've ever seen. I was busing across central Mexico in hot pursuit of uniformed Mexican schoolgirls and the escaped Boris Yeltsin and was forced to watch this awful movie. My traveling companion, Carlos Caliente, who is an avid fan of the ballet and tights in general, expressed his disgust early on in this movie, noting its lack of character development, plot, Neve Campbell's exposed melons, and overall shittyness. After the ridiculous final Olmec-head-eating-dancers scene we thought the pain was over. To our horror, the movie was replayed again! Blast! I would have rather ridden a chicken bus to Hell than be damned to such a fate as seeing the Company twice in one sitting. My suggestion to you, amigos, is 1) promptly punch in the face anyone you ever meet who even remotely liked this film, 2) never take anything but the first class executive bus, and 3) always buy your bras and panties from large piles in the streets of Mexico, D.F. BORIS, I WILL FIND YOU YET!!!
