Advantages: great dancing Disadvantages: not a carry on from the 1st film
After a long wait and being a fan if the first film and soundtrack, it was a film that I definitely had to see and I can say that it is not a match on the first film. It continues the story of Sara, although originally played by Julia Stiles, Sara is now played by Izabella Miko. Also in the last film Sara boyfriend is Derek who is not in this sequel. So I do not really think this is a sequel, more like a film that has carried on the storyline, but ... ...do not think has worked too well.
Continuing the story of the original film where Sara follows her dream and becomes a student at Juilliard, where Sara manages to become a star pupil of whom her dance teachers has great ideas for her. Unfortunately Sara becomes torn between her love for ballet and her passion for the urban dance.
To add more confusion Sara meets Miles a musician, whom writes some music and asks Sara to put together a dance for ...

When I first seen that there was a sequel to one of my all time favourite dance films I couldn't wait to see it. Until I noticed it was different people playing the roles. However, I still wanted to see what Sara Johnston would do after getting into Julliard. So I decided to rent it.
The Sequel is all about Sara Johnston and the adventures she finds at Julliard, the school she dreamed of attending ever since she realised she could dance. The film ... ...a former pupil of Julliard, Miles. She helps him out by choreographing a dance piece for a piece of music for a show he's in but when she find out the truth about Miles' Family will she be so keen to help him? Pick up a copy to find out. It's worth it!
When it finished I thought it gave the first film a run for it's money! It was so much better than I expected. I was that impressed that I went out and bought it for only £9.99 which to me was excellent. ...

Advantages: great choreography Disadvantages: flaws in plots and characters
So, as a lover of all things dance, when I saw the sequel to arguably one of the most successful dance films, I immediately went to purchase it to add to my collection.
The first film, 'Save the last dance' introduced Sarah as a heartbroken teen moving to a tough neighbourhood as a result of her mothers death. She blames herself for the tradgedy due to her 'forcing' her to attend her audition for Juilliard. Rushing results in a car crash and Sarah ... ...film we see her slowly being persuaded to take up her dream again by boyfriend 'Derek'. His influence along with that of hip-hop, (the pulse of the area she now lives in), she finds a new way of adapting her dance which eventually results in her being sucessful in her second audition for Julliard.
'Save the last dance 2' follows Sarah as she embarks on her quest to excel at Julliard as a ballet dancer. In typical 'Save the last dance' style we have ...
