Product Description
Lionsgate Dirty Dancing 20th Anniversary Edition (Blu-Ray) brIt's summer, 1963. Baby (Grey), 17 years old and innocent, is vacationing with her parents in theCatskills. While exploring the resort grounds late one evening, she is drawn to the staff quarters by stirring music. There she meets Johnny (Swayze), the hotel dance instructor, who is as experienced in life as Baby is naive. Mesmerized by the sexybeats and uninhibited movements of "Dirty Dancing," Baby soon becomes Johnny's prize pupil - in dance and in love.

As with iGrease/i (1978) and iFootloose/i (1984) before it, iDirty Dancing/i was a cultural phenomenon that now plays more like camp. That very campiness, though, is part of its biggest charm. And if the dancing in the movie doesn't seem particularly "dirty" by today's standards--or 1987's--it does take place in an era (the early '60s) when it would have. Frances "Baby" Houseman (Jennifer Grey, daughter of ageless hoofer Joel Grey) has been vacationing in the Catskills with her family for many years. Uneventfully. One summer, she falls under the sway (as it were) of dance instructor Johnny Castle (Patrick Swayze). Baby is a pampered pup, but Johnny is a man of the world. Baby's father, Jake (iLaw and Order/i's Jerry Orbach), can't see the basic decency in greaser Johnny that she can. It should come as no surprise to find that Baby, who can be as immature as her name, learns more about love and life--and dancing--from free-spirited Johnny than traditionalist Jake. br/br/ iDirty Dancing/i spawned two successful soundtracks, a short-lived TV series, and a stage musical. It may be predictable, but Grey and Swayze have chemistry, charisma, and all the right moves. It's a sometimes silly movie with occasionally mind-boggling dialogue--"No one puts Baby in a corner!"--that nonetheless carries an underlying message about tolerance and is filled with the kind of exuberant spirit that's hard for even the most cynical to resist. Not that they'd ever admit it. i--Kathleen C. Fennessy/i

One-Line Film Reviews (Ann Arbor)
The Bottom Line: br / br /Dirty Dancing, despite being considered a classic in some quarters, is a tepid romance whose screenplay connects the dots in such a way that every part of the movie is guessable from the very beginning; watch it if you're into this kind of movie, but otherwise stay far away.
 THIS IS NOT THE BLU-RAY VERSION January 3, 2009

This movie was made in 1987...I was born in 1986... and it is hands down one of my very favourite movies. It's even greater to update it for us, the "microwave generation" and I like that I have it on hand whenever I want to watch it.
