Mine is Center Stage. I love the way they danced ballet. Wish I could dance in front of a big and admiring audience like them too!

For ballet, I pick The Turning Point. For Country dancing, Urban Cowboy. For Ballroom, I have a tie, Dance With Me and Strictly Ballroom and Shall We Dance, the Japanese version. And I also enjoyed Salsa.

I'm sure Honey is a fantastic movie too though I hadn't the chance to watch it yet. Would catch it soon. Yup, Bring It On's cheerleading moves are fascinating to watch too.

Although I do love Center Stage, I would have to say that Save the Last Dance is my absolute favorite dance movie. I think it has more of a real life type plot to it, and keeps my attention focused on it more. Although Center Stage does have a real life parallel plot its one that isn't known as much because it is more of an inside a dancer's life plot and you have to be involved in the industry to really understand how true it is, as where Save the Last Dance you see these type things on the street alot, and it is more of a believable plot.

I only watched half of the movie 'Save the Last Dance'. Yup, Julia Stiles was brilliant in that movie.

well many of them are classics with Gene Kelly, Fred Astair etc etc...more modern ones though (but still old LOL) would be Grease, Flashdance, Fame and Saturday Night Fever..

I'm afraid I haven't had the chance to watch classic dance movies with the aforementioned actors starring in them. Would try to watch them one day. Thanks.

i think it would be grease in my opinion. i liked that movie, that i also wanted to watch part2. also was happy when i thought part3 was going to come out but figured those rumors were a lie.
• Malaysia

I've never watched Part 2 of Grease before and I doubt it'll be as good as the first Travolta one. And I've never heard of Part 3 either. Perhaps it's true. Anything's possible.

• Malaysia

Oh, another Dirty Dancing fan! Now, I just can't wait to get hold of the movie and watch it again! Take the Lead - Antonio Banderas? I didn't know he could dance! It should be a good dance movie too.

I'm an absolute sucker for dancing movies. The only thing I really hate about them, is every time I watch one I regret quitting lessons in my early teens. My top three favourites would have to be Center Stage, Bootmen and Billy Elliot. I find my inclusion and even general like of Billy Elliot odd as when I was learning I absolutely hated ballet class. Yet, this movie absolutely pulls at my heart each and everytime I watch it.

Yeah, Billy Elliot was good too. But I prefer Center Stage more as there is more dancing. If you don't want to feel any regret, why don't you join dancing classes again? It's never too late for anything!

I watched 'Dirty Dancing' when I was little and I don't remember much of it now. I've also forgotten how Patrick Swayze danced! I have to find the movie and watch it again. And this is the first time I've heard of 'Footloose'.

I love Center Stage! And my husband pretends not to like it but sits through the whole thing whenever I put it on. I also really like Save The Last Dance. Julia Stiles is such a good actress and I loved her in this movie. Now I want to watch one of them!

I know this discussion is a year old but I'm going to respond anyways. My favorite dance movie has to be Save The Last Dance. The first one. I watched the second one and didn't like it much.
