THE PLOT THUS FAR
WHAT WE THOUGHT
Andrew McCarthy should stick to directing television. He’s pretty good at it and it serves to get his face off camera. The real world isn’t Pretty in Pink, Blaine. James Spader won and Jon Cryer is kept as a rent boy for Ashton Kutcher on CBS. McCarthy plays a guy that’s trying to woo the boss’s daughter and move up in the world. Unfortunately, he falls in love while learning how to dance. “Dirty Dancing” is only slightly edgier because Swayze helped a chick to get an abortion.
If you like this kind of schmaltz, then you’re probably reading this site on your kid’s iPad. It’s cool, people. I know that a lot of readership is female and of a certain age. That’s why I promise that our erotic section (scheduled unveiling: December 2013) will keep you entertained. I’m just going to keep reviewing these tired old Hallmark movies as an effort to kill their casual fantasies and push you towards the one I create. Can you say nostalgia porn?
The DVD comes with no special features. The A/V Quality is strong with a supportive transfer and a Dolby audio track. The Dolby track doesn’t get much back channel action outside of the few major scenes. In the end, I’d recommend a rental to old women.
