I'll lay odds that every straight girl and gay guy out there dreams of a guy like Javier. We watch this movie because, on a very primal level, we want to be Katey having this experience with Javier. If that's not why you're watching this movie, then I'm not sure why you bothered, quite frankly. We want to feel what she feels as he wakes her up. Javier's fresh and exciting and different, contrasting a sensual magnetism and uninhibited nature that is purely Diego Luna with a respect for Katey in the little movements like putting her dress strap back on her shoulder and offering to carry her bookbag. If anyone is uninhibited, it's Diego. If you don't believe me, watch Y tu mamá también. Steam comes off that movie of the hetero and homo-erotic variety.
Is Dirty Dancing: Havana Nights the best thing ever, no, but it doesn't matter. Diego and Romola's attraction and chemistry blaze so intensely that nobody actually cares about a plot at the end of the day. The entire film could have been about them dancing and making out, oh wait, it kinda was. But I love it. I love the Latin American influence. I love that Diego Luna can make me fall in love with him with one smile and hip wiggle. And I even love that it makes me cry. It's the exotic nature of the film that makes it exciting and sensual and they cast the perfect exotic leading man.

Is this Movie Worth it?
Seeing a fifty something year-old Patrick Swayze in tights?
Maybe worth a penny. ************ Enduring a stale plot with a dead end conclusion?
Okay you get your penny back! ************ Seeing a shirtless Deigo Luna sweating from head to toe!
Priceless! That is the only reason to watch this commercially crazed crud!
