I have put the television on tonight and found Dirty Dancing 2017 on, I love Dirty Dancing, but 10 minutes into this remake I found myself actually cringing at the lack of chemistry or acting.
So if you’re watching this, here’s a comparison for you.
Now here’s a quick reminder of how it should look…
So now I’m off to dig out my DVD and have a Dirty Dancing fest until Poldark starts… almost a perfect Sunday after all…
Seldom are remakes comparable to the originals. Especially remakes of such a classic movie. I’ve always loved Dirty Dancing and quote the movie repeatedly. Just like with Grease remake… I feel like this movie is doomed for failure.

Remakes rarely match the original! This one would be very hard to outdo!

I totally agree. Johnny wasn’t good looking. Turning it into a musical was a huge mistake. Baby is a wooden dancer and all in all it was just horrible.

It really was wasn’t it. I went to see the musical & it was great on stage but this movie was bad.
