If you're looking for a feel-good movie, this is it. There are some holes in the story line, but the dancing scenes are really enjoyable, and the light hearted comedy was great. I especially enjoyed the high school reunion scene. Laughed out loud!

I really enjoyed this movie. Had a good mix of Faith, fun, family moments and great dancing.

I confess that when I saw that the male star of the movie was also its producer and director, the question did run through my mind "What, he couldn't get ANYONE to make this movie?", but then I told myself not to judge without seeing first. Then the introductory voiceover got evangelical, and again I wondered. I lasted 25 minutes. Hard to identify any single thing that made this movie unwatchable for me; most of all I think the writing was just SO awful, with cliche after cliche and dialogue that was just completely unreal (not in a good way). Also the characters were cardboard cutouts with no depth or believability. As is so often the case, the movie's basic idea could have been entertaining with a halfway decent script and characterisation. But even as someone who doesn't mind a bit of "cheesy" or "predictable " this was many steps too far.

I was impressed with Peta's acting. She's good. I had trouble with the chemistry but the story is cute and worth watching. It doesn't hide the religious message but the dancing is good enough that it doesn't over shadow.

It's a cute movie but not a great movie. It was sweet, warm, and without filth and foul language! JESUS IS ALIVE AND LOVES ALL OF YOU!!!

It took persistence to get my daughter and granddaughters to watch this with me. We're all Christians, but have seen some well-meaning, but heavy-handed Christian movies. I finally convinced them to watch the beginning dance montage, and then they were hooked. The movie is a perfect mixture of fun and message. We all agreed that the chemistry between the actors was perfect. Also enjoyable was seeing favorites like M. Emmet Walsh, Ed Asner, Corbin Bernsen, Gary Hershberger, Nancy Stafford, and Michael Richards. I've watched it three times, now, and will continue to enjoy watching this new favorite movie.

This movie was silly in parts, overtly Christian in parts, full of cliches and hard to believe in other parts but I give it an 8 because it was so perfectly imperfect. Watch and hang in to the end and you'll know why I say that and agree.

The actors did the best they could with the script. They were charming and motivated me to finish the show. The curve of the story was off. I could tell they were trying to be genuine to real life but it made for a confusing movie. I guess life is confusing. But I felt we saw too much of the work in making this movie. So many weird camera close ups and background blurs and cuts. It's like I want this movie to get a do-over without the strange editing and filming choices. Still, I'm grateful anytime people aim for faith building, uplifting media.
