Miller has all but smothered the charm right out of his Charm School.

The picture trivializes the characters, hinting at depths it can't depict, aiming at a profundity of feeling it can't begin to reach.
April 21, 2006 | Rating: 1/4 | Full Review… -
Beyond Wahlberg's deft moves, School's dancing is leaden, not charming, and the only challenge is enduring the film's lumbering progress until it finally clicks at the end.
April 21, 2006 | Rating: 1.5/4 | Full Review… -
Predictable and decidedly old-fashioned in its sensibility, the film is likely to win over audiences if not critics.

While it's at times too melodramatic and formulaic to be entirely successful, it still holds some appeal; its very amateurishness is what makes it charming.

Marilyn Hotchkiss' Ballroom Dancing and Charm School may stumble at times, but at least it gets out on the dance floor and has a good time.

Dec 08, 2007Great movie. Good story plot that follows a grieving baker who connects with a total stranger's story about ballroom dancing. Great cast. Definitely worthy.Leo L Super Reviewer

Nov 22, 2007Stars for having such a great cast. John Goodman plays a memorable character, and it has Ernie Hudson so you know you want some.Curtis L Super Reviewer

Sep 28, 2007I absolutely ADORE Mary Steenburgen but she is a horrible dancer. Carlyle was excellent. Rest of film was farfetched and flighty.Alice S Super Reviewer
Marilyn Hotchkiss Ballroom Dancing & Charm School Quotes
| Steve Mills: | Swearing and making girls cry was the most important thing. |
| Randall Ipswitch: | No matter what happened, we would meet on the fifth day of the fifth month of the fifth year of the new millennium at Marilyn Hotchkiss' Ballroom Dancing and Charm School. |
| Randall Ipswitch: | With all due respect, it is painfully obvious that those 'professional' critics who have less than thoughtful words for this masterpiece have not at all lived a full life. As one who has loved and lost, held someone as they've faded into another existence; one who has suffered the passing of that one soul who is the meaning for their existence, as one who has both saved a life and taken one inadvertently, one who has found salvation in both a capsule and a career, found that the one-time bane of their existence has been their greatest teacher, and has survived to still view life on this earth as a wonderful gift... talk to me on your deathbed and try to choke out your same naive views. |
| Marianne Hotchkiss: | Dance is a very powerful drug Mr. Keane. If embraced judiciously, it can exorcise demons, access deep seated emotions and color your life in joyous shades of brilliant magenta that you never knew existed. But, one must shoulder its challenges with intrepid countenance if one is ever to reap its rewards. |
