A young choreographer casts a contemporary dancer and an innovative pianist in New York's most anticipated new Broadway show. But the move throws off the show's delicate balance when the pianist and the choreographer fall for a dancer.

This follow-up to 2016's "High Strung" has its visual dazzle and performance highs but the story and characters are just too fake, chaste and grit-free to take seriously.

The glossy fakeness is a signal to the audience that every single thing about these stories will stand in abject defiance of reality, and it's best just to accept them at face value.

Bland even by this genre's low standards.

'High Strung Free Dance' simply bowled me over. It's a must-see movie for all dance fans! Think 'A Chorus Line' meets '42nd Street.'

Sensational music/dance numbers rise above so-so romance.

Too trite. It's an old plot. Did not enjoy the dancing or selection of music.

Truly love this film . The music is so emotional and the dance scenes are stunning . Cookie cutter romance but I don’t mind that. I love that the main character always stays true to herself. Lovely film

Fun movie to watch, actors are sweet. The "fish- underwater" dance was awesome! I loved it. Zander was perfect. In the opening night Charlie's part was brilliant! The older woman behind the door was a cute add in. It was all good. The music was great except at times too loud. I could have enjoyed a two hour version of the whole movie.
