DonnaC.Sep 2, 200510The movie was terrific. I loved that Sara loved Derek, it didn't bother her the color of his skin or what people thought. My favorite scenes are Stepps and the kissing.

nikitaf.May 12, 200510It was a great.
-
-
matvApr 25, 20053Unoriginal and poorly directed. not everyone in the suburb acts and talks like a gangster. the tagline for the movie is The Only Person You need to be Is Yourself but Sara is only accepted when she dances and talks like a black person so the tagline is challenged.

-
KayleaV.Mar 12, 200510This movie was the best movie I have ever seen, from the plot to the dancing, it was all great. I dont think any movie will ever be able to compare. I watch the movie over and over again and i have learned over half the dance.

DanielleM.Oct 15, 200410Really I would give this movie 100 because I personally LOVE this movie to death I watch this movie every single day and I never get tired of it I love every bit of it and I would have punched that girl if she started dancing with my man and I think Julia Stiles did a good job playing Sara in this movie especially when she hit Niki.
-
-
KeinaSAug 15, 200410This movie was an inspiration to me because my mom is a single parent and doesn't approve of me (being white) dating my boyfriend who is black. I have also been taking ballet for 10 years so this is definitely my movie. It deserves way more than a 10 on my scale. Julia and Sean were awesome in this movie.

ElisabethB.Nov 29, 20037Yeh Save the Last Dance was a good movie because it had a good plot to it. But i think that sara kinda acted her color if ya know that i mean !! Nikki i would have stayed with her because she's pretty and she can dance !! It was so unreal !! Why woukd you quit Ballet just because your mom died? That doesn't make any sense !! Chanel she was cool and i liked her clothes !!
-
-
VeronicaNov 21, 200310I love this movie, one of my favorites. It's very inspirational to watch a young girl move on and get into julieyard after her mother dies. i love the danceing, and the romance between Derrek and Sarah. I just love how it teaches to shoot for her dreams.
-

-
-
KariNov 12, 200310I love the fact that this movie proves you dont have to be a certain color to love. It goes beyond that and it sends a good message to everyone: No matter what color your skin is you should alwayz keep up the fight and work hard for what you want and love at the same time.
-
-

-
GabriellaK.Nov 8, 200310This is one of my all-time favorite movies. I loved the story line. The dancing is awesom and the music is great! Julia Stiles and Sean Patrick Thomas were a hit. It also showed that interracial romances can work out if you want them to. This movie showed that if you can believe it you can achieve it.

CassandraM.May 12, 200210Is there going to be a save the last dance 2? it would be cool if there was. i like this movie a lot and my mom always tells me not to watch it everyday (i watch it anyway). It shows people that you can date of a different race and fit in. The dancing in the movie is cool! I hope there is going to be a #2!!! The songs on the movie were great.

-
CarmenB.Apr 21, 200210The best movie ever!!! The music 's very cool, the actors too and the dance is amazing!!!! I don't understand why the critics are so average, maybe because the people who write the reviews are so old and don't understand anytihing about dance ,hip-pop and young people.
-
-
JannaApr 14, 200210Great film. It's definitely top in my charts. It seems so realistic.

-
-
CamilleB.Mar 29, 200210I loved it because it has Sean Patrick Thomas in it & because it has lots of dancing in it.
-
-
MichelleP.Mar 6, 200210This is by far my favorite movie...I love the slammin' dance moves and the songs to dance to. The ratings just don't go high enough. It makes you move in you seat as soon as you hear the music.
-
-
JessicaS.Feb 14, 200210"Dirty Dancing" meets "Romeo and Juliet!" FANTASTIC! I loved it!
-
-
CassieW.Feb 10, 200210I loved this movie. Sean and Julia worked well together. Now I am gonna watch it a lot more because I have the movie now. Thanx for makin a great movie!!!
-

-
-

-
-
StephanieFeb 2, 200210This movie is AMAZING, it's one of the best movies I've ever seen. Julia Stiles and Sean Patrick Thomas work amazing together. They should work together on another movie!
-
-
RachaelS.Jan 30, 20029This movie was by far one of the best movies of the year, as a teenager I can identify with a lot of the characters and its not like some punk out after school special, it has actual things that us as teenagers have to deal with.
-
-
AngelaB.Jan 27, 200210It was a great movie. I don't like dance, but for a movie ABOUT dance it was great!!!
-
-
CatherineS.Jan 23, 200210I loved it. It was a great movie!!
-
-
JoW.Jan 20, 200210I would have given it a rating ten times higher than this! It is the best movie I have ever seen! It deals with so many important issues that are going on in the world today. Julia Stiles and Sean Patrick Thomas were brilliant!
-
-
CoraleeP.Jan 12, 200210I luv this movie. I saw it 4 times in 2 days, it is one of the best movies i have ever seen. It totally gets 2 thumbs up aswell as 2 toes up.
-
-
KatharineL.Jan 10, 200210It's an emotional an fantastic movie. Julia Stiles is great alongside Sean Patrick Thomas. It really makes you think about the black and white division that is still happening in the world.
-
-
KarishaD.Dec 31, 200110This movie is awesome!!! It makes you want to be a part of the neighborhood. I definitely think it's the best movie ever made! They should consider making Save The Last Dance 2 and let us know how things turned out!
-
-
LisaC.Dec 30, 200110On a scale from 1-10, I give it an 11. This movie took a stand and brought out an issue many people are afraid to talk about-interracial dating. There DEFINITELY needs to be more movies that talk about this issue so people can get over their petty, ignorant prejudices.
-
-
StephanieVanL.Dec 21, 20019I just love this movie, but only the beginning is a bit boring. What I like the most is the fact that u can learn the hiphopdance yourself while watching the movie. The interracial relation is also cool, cause we don't get to see that a lot in movies. People should make more movies like this one.
-
-
KirstyW.Dec 19, 20019Totaly brilliant.
-
-
SummerB.Dec 12, 200110This movie was the best! I lOVE the characters and the portrayal of the ghetto. They also are acting like the average person and it made you feel like you were there. I really understood it.
-
-
JessicaC.Dec 5, 200110It lets people get an idea of how many issues teens must put up with. Sometimes you do have like 20 different problems going on at one time in your life. I give hats off to Thomas Carter.
-
-
PedroB.Dec 4, 200110It was the best movie that I had ever seen, and the soundtrack is even better.
-
-
TinaW.Nov 25, 200110This is the sweetest, coolest an best movie EVER! I LOVE IT!
-
-
AshleyM.Nov 23, 200110This Movie Is AWESOME, I LOVE Julia Stiles she?s so original, she can do anything. This movie was just great all around, that's why I gave it a 10!!
-
-
HetalM.Nov 14, 200110This movie was one of the best movies I've seen in a long time. Julia Stiles and Sean Patrick Thomas give a dazzling performance. I loved the movie!!
-
-
KinaC.Nov 6, 200110We need more movies that help us understand the delicate issue of interracial dating so that others will stop their prejudice. A 10 for sure!
-
-
KristenK.Nov 6, 200110This was one of the best movies I have ever seen. It is one of my favorite movies. I think that the actors and actresses were really good...I loved this movie.
-
-
50Takes its cues from the musical dramas of the '70s, but this otherwise engaging young-adult romance never quite catches Saturday night fever.
-
63The most traditional of Hollywood romances, in that it's resolutely about nice people with nice problems.
-
63While it flirts with "After School Special"-ness, at least has the courage to address racial and cultural cliches with a degree of honesty.
