Strictly Ballroom - Comments and Reviews of the film


"Listen to the rhythm of your heart in Strictly Ballroom, where tears and laughter blend seamlessly in an extravagantly theatrical story about love, dreams and overcoming your fears"

"Though made for a fraction of Moulin Rouge's budget and with no big stars, Strictly Ballroom is the better film in every way."

"The editing is superb. All too often we focus on the actors, music or cinematography. This is natural, and in this film all of these are superb. But keep a close watch of the editing, wow, it is perfect and ties the whole film together flawlessly. There are so many cuts that make the perspective magical."

"The attention to detail in the direction is fantastic; each scene is done with glistening sense of bewilderment and beauty."

"The style is consistent - campy. The acting is wonderful. The editing and rhythm are superb. The music is engaging."

"An outstanding movie in nearly every regard. Filmed in Australia on a tight budget, this movie succeeds in the one area that counts most; it entertains the viewer."
