Strictly Ballroom Customer reviews
Complete waste of money! - Maurice des DeuxMeaux - Silver Spring, Md.
I agree with everyone else: We had taken a beginners' ballroom dance class and just wanted a little refresher, a literally step-by-step instructional video, and that's what the cover of this DVD seems to promise. It was a total waste. If it were possible to give a zero-star rating, I'd have done it. Amazon should scratch it from their catalogue.
unmet expectations - Davina Hunter - Bay Area CA
I agree with the comments from other reviewers here. I occasionally review this dvd to remind myself why I shoved it at the back of the dance shelf. The cover is so pretty, so full of promise, so hopeful...yes...this dvd promises so much but delivers so little in the way of applicable ballroom dance instruction! This DVD WILL NOT HELP anyone 'Learn to Dance like the pros!'....as promised on the packaging.
A more ideal place for this DVD is in the personal 'home movie' collections of these dance pros themselves (we all have them...but thank goodness we do not produce and peddle them to the general public!)...So this film is a bit frustrating...
It's like listening to the actors blather on in the special features/commentaries after you watch the movie. Boring! But at least you got to see a movie first! It is like buying a blockbuster hit film and only getting the commentaries...no film!
Most of the discussions in this dance instruction dvd might be better left unpublished! I just don't care how the two dancers developed, got along with each other, or how difficult it was for her to cooperate with him...or how hard it was for her to stand in dance posture...how unfit she was at the start... but... some people might
To say something nice: Natasha's (the female partner's) dresses are pretty and so is the dvd box label pictures. I found her personality and dance style more agreeable than her partner's. His was so over-the-top, contrived...like he wasn't really even paying attention to his partner...he was so lost in his own judge pleasing 'act' with those overboard hip movements, spastic styling and downright embarassing facial expressions! Sometimes, something simple, yet genuine is such a breath of fresh air!!!
On the very thin surface, they are a physically attractive couple...however...my partner announced that I should NOT look forward to him adopting the latin technique, styling and dress example presented in this dvd by Brendan Cole in the near or distant future!
Horribly Misleading - Dangerous_Jade - Huntington, WV
As others have said, this is NOT an instructional video at all. And since the front of the box specifically says "Instructional DVD" the producers of this video outright lied, which makes me mad when I spent money on this piece of crap.
It pretty much consists of the two dancers performing the dance then telling you how it makes them feel. Like others have said it's interesting to watch them perform the dances, but the product is highly misleading. I'll be attempting to return this one to the store tomorrow...
