A diverting and classy-looking musical drama bouyed by committed acting and a rousing finale, though the main characters are not very compelling and some the writing is a bit too obvious; Pat Thomson excels as the strict mother of Paul Mercurio. Final Grade: B-

Strictly Ballroom Review comment
Kept putting off seeing this movie for a long time. I thought it would not be my type of movie at all, however I really enjoyed it.
Great at not trying to be great, or copying typical Holywood crap. Not the best acting, not the best story but somehow manages to be great.
No need to give you a synopsis
