Sarah Johnson may be at Julliard, but her struggle to make a name for herself in the ultra-competitive world of dance is only beginning. Though her stern instructor and idol Monique Delacroix (Jacqueline Bisset) has generously taken young Isabelle under her wing, a guest lecturer named Miles (Columbus Short) causes the aspiring young dancer to question her priorities. Soon torn between the raw honesty of hip-hop dance and the respectable world of ballet, Sarah realizes that only she take hold of her fate and face the future with the confidence to succeed no matter which path she chooses. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

    yes i watched it. yes it was terrible. it was actually better than the first which was one of the worst movies of all time, but this was still pretty bad.

    Very good dance choreography between hip-hop and ballerina. Izabella Miko does fantastic in her own dance choreography.

    This sequel is orrible. I mean they break up Sara and Dereck. The reasone Save the Last Dance was so popular is because of those two and there love for eachother. I seriously wanted to kill whoever wrote this script.

    Sara and Kenny are an icon couple. He pulled her out of her da... read morerkest days and they break up just because of a little distance? and yet they overcame racial differences, tragic pasts and gang bangers.

    They also got rid of Julia Stiles. WTF.

    I hated it. Simple as that.

    save the last dance 2 was a major disapointment it had made the first one look like a ripoff or a spinoff because it was just terrible

    I really liked the first one with Julia Stills now this one was almost a replicate of the first with not as much heart it doesn't even compare to the first I wish they had the same actors. I was a little disappointed. Dance is more than technique it's heart.

    I was never interested in seeing this movie until I found out Colombus Short was in it. The movie itself is okay, but I am not to into movies where a different actor plays the same character. It doesn't ever work.

    Its not as good as the first one but it is good. Julia is not playing sarah which is the reason why
  • December 12, 2008
    Not to mention that I love the first movie but the Second was great as well. If you are into the music and dance this is one to see.

    The two movies are almost separate movies. There is NO similiar personalities btwn 1 & 2.....but I love the dancing!!

The dance sequences will undoubtedly shake the socks right off of ya! They're terrific, possibly even more so than those in the first film.
