22 years after a bullying incident robbed him of his shot at glory in the UK Junior Salsa Championships, overweight and self-loathing office worker Bruce Garrett (Nick Frost) falls for the charms of his new, seemingly out-of-reach American boss Julia (Rashida Jones). Bruce's hopes rise, however, when he discovers that Julia also shares a passion for the dance floor, inspiring him to try to turn back the clock and win the girl of his dreams. Unfortunately, there's a problem - Bruce's testosterone-fuelled colleague Drew (Chris O'Dowd) has made it quite obvious that he's got his own carnal designs on Julia. Can Bruce regain his confidence, unleash his dormant Latin fire and snatch the ultimate prize? (StudioCanal)

Well, I like dance movies. The rhythm does something to me. Plus, I like Nick Frost and Chris O'Dowd, although I prefer them in more positive roles. Rashida is great, with a bit of humor, unfortunately not much, and it results in a pretty decent comedy that will amaze you mainly with how Nick Frost dances. That guy is just amazing. And I was also pleased by one successful cameo.
