Save the Last Dance

This movie was off the hook! First of all, these are the type of movies that should be known to mankind. Save the Last Dance, is a blend of love and romance with a little piece of hate crimes, racism, and of course most definitely violence. Well to tell you the truth, most of the people don’t like love and romance. Save the Last Dance is a nice blending of a little piece of everything so it can entertain the people with different likes and dislikes. Even the people who don’t like these types of movies would be interested in the movie Save the Last Dance. The name of the movie can leave the viewer in suspense. Just think of it as a phrase, Save the Last Dance.


The theme of this movie is plain and simple. Sarah is trying to peruse her dream, which is to try to get accepted into Julliard. She kept on trying and trying until the end. She finally impressed the judges and made him say “Welcome to Julliard.” The movie is basically trying to tell you that you should never give up, no matter how hard you try.


If at first you don’t succeed at what you want to do, try try again. If you give up, then you should look in the mirror and say “I am a quitter.”


The characters of this movie are: Derrick Reynald (Chennile’s brother), Chennile Reynald (Derrick’s sister), Niki (Chennile’s friend), Malachi (Derrick’s homeboy), Roy (Sarah’s dad), Momma D (Derrick and Chennile’s grandmother), Kenny (Chile’s boyfriend), Snookie (a wannabe thug), and last but definitely not least Sarah Johnson. These characters make the movie come alive. Acting, whew, when it comes to the acting, they really get this party started, as we might say. They create suspense, using emotions and other techniques, for the viewer to make them wonder what will happen next. For example, when Sarah said she didn’t want to be with Derrick, the viewers kept on thinking, “will they go back together again?” They also talked the way people would talk in New York City. They talk all ghetto as if...
