However, Jack is dating the fabulously rich and elegant Demi Clayton, who happens to be Drew’s daughter. Although Demi’s mother Clarisse doesn’t necessarily approve of Jack and would prefer her daughter to date a man within their social circle, Jack still plans on proposing.

But when sparks start to fly between Jack and his dance instructor, Christine, Jack will have to make some important decisions before it is too late.

Come Dance with Me Audience Reviews

Marketic It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.
Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good
Dirtylogy It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
Robert Joyner The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
katgildez I loved this movie. The haunting melody danced to throughout the movie is charming. The theme of choosing relationship over money was heartwarming. The mom who comes to visit and helps the son realize he needs to make a healthier choice than choosing the boss's daughter was the perfect touch. I watch this show every Christmas without fail.
Jack Vasen When I realized what plot device they were using, I almost gave up on this film. Poor Christine is about to lose her dance studio that's been in her family to the big corporation that is tearing everything down, and the guy she meets, Jack, is head of the project, but she doesn't know it. Add to that his existing girlfriend is the powerful boss' daughter. And in the beginning, Jack is a real money-grubbing, dishonest jerk.The other well-used plot device is that of showing Jack doesn't belong in this world of snobs. But before he can learn that, he needs to learn how to dance so he can show his society-bred girlfriend that he can. So he randomly goes to Christine's studio.You can probably figure out how most of this is going to work out, but there is one fun thing thrown in - his mother shows up. She is funny. At first you think she is the stereotype meddler, but she turns out to be much more.While most of the dance instruction takes place without music, there are a couple of nice displays of the waltz. Not overly glitzy, but romantic.The acting is good enough. I thought that Jack's change from jerk to nice-guy was too quick and unbelievable. Christine trusts this guy who literally walked in off the street and pours out her troubles to him almost immediately.***SPOILERS*** Kudos to this movie for an ending that doesn't solve every problem.
MysteryGirl Andrew McCarthy has steadily been an actor whose movies take you into the moment, where you magically lose yourself, and once the credits roll, you're still there. "Come Dance With Me" doesn't grab you immediately, but slowly pulls you in. Although there are a few scenes that just don't mesh, McCarthy pulls it off. His brooding, ruggedly handsome demeanor is seductive, and it undoubtedly crosses the movie to viewer barrier.Casting for this movie was mostly on target, except for the bosses daughter. There's absolutely no chemistry in what seems to be a composite airhead overacted and stereotypical blonde type. As a viewer/audience, you just wish she'd go away, but at the same type it gives you the chance for a few giggles at her expense. Since the movie title does contain "Dancing" you're in for a pleasant surprise. McCarthy pulls off a beautiful waltz, and for me - he can fill my dance card for the entire event. Although I rated this movie an 8, it's certainly not in the same caliber of Rogers and Astaire, but with more than a few wonderful scenes, where the magic of the movies comes alive .... we can blissfully dance the night away.
boblipton Andrew McCarthy wants to marry the boss' daughter and secure his place in business. Her family has a tradition of ballroom dancing at Christmas. To impress her father and gain his approval, Andrew takes dancing lessons and falls in love with his instructor, Mary Long, in this superior Hallmark Christmas TV-movie.Although the story sags occasionally from the minutiae of romantic comedy plotting, the heart of the movie, the self-realization that McCarthy comes to while learning how to dance and the growing relationship between him and his dancing partner is beautifully staged and performed, with a graceful camera caressing them as they move.Howard Hawks was once asked how to make a great picture. He said "Three good scenes and no bad ones." This movie has those good scenes and more.
