It's nice. It's harmless. The leads are winsome and William Ash seems to be able to play football. Pity he apparently cannot dance. This is a big handicap in a film that's meant to be, at least in part, about dancing. (See title!) We never get the climactic dance sequence that should be there. The scene in the football stadium is filmed to avoid showing footwork as much as possible -- for all too obvious reasons.
Somebody seems to have thought: 'Billy Elliot' is a hit. So was 'Gregory's Girl' back in the 80s. Let's add a touch of 'Strictly Ballroom' and, hey, we'll have a whole new film! Hm.
No marks for originality, then, but it is mildly entertaining.
