Shall We Dance

A remake of a smallish japanese film. The original probably works quite well, but it doesn't translate to a western world. The reviews would have you believe that Gere's character is trying to embark on an affair with J-Lo, however I didn't really get that from the film. J-Lo's character is about as far from her public persona as you can get; she's weak, quiet, spineless and almost disturbingly submissive. Definitely not the strong female lead needed to make the most of Gere.

Disappointing, very disappointing.

Watch This If: you've finished all your laundry, cleaned the bathroom, hoovered the house, fed the dog, done all your bring home work and the only thing on TV is the 'River City' omnibus

Watch Out For: There is absolutely nothing remarkable about this film (sadly not even the dancing!)
