Do not understand how overall rating is below 7. Watchability does not fade. Incredible movie with an incredible cast. Timeless.

This is my ultimate favourite film. Romance, Dancing and one very sexy Patrick Swayze.

This movie contains one of the BEST love scenes ever filmed. You have to have veins of ice if the cabana/dance/love scene between Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Gray doesn't make your heart race a little. The only other movie I can think of right now with a scene that can move me as much is maybe the elevator kiss scene in Drive. Both just beautifully filmed, staged, choreographed, put to music and delivered.And yes, while this movie is somewhat 'cheesy' in places, there is no denying that is played a huge part in American cinema. The Penny story line, the young love, the family situation, all hot topics the year this was filmed.Lastly, the soundtrack is amazing. Not ONE of these songs feels out of place or superfluous. Just perfect. If I could give it a rating of 20, I'd do it in a heartbeat.

This movie endures the test of time, and remains a classic. Dirty Dancing, a movie about a girl named Baby vacationing at a Catskill Mountains Resort, is a fantastic movie. The music is amazing on its own, let alone the amazing dance sequences to go along with it. The story is about Baby growing up and falling in love for the first time. And as a result, her relationships with the people closest to her have to evolve and change – as everyone is forced to confront their prejudices and assumptions. It's a perfect coming of age story
