I am from Spain. I remember seeing Dance Academy back in 2011 and I was a huge fan. I know the movie was released a few years ago, but I didn't have the chance to see it until I found out it was on Netflix. I am so thankful for this movie, it gaves the show closure which is what my childhood needed. I've been scared because for a moment I thought they were doing a 'Sam' again... but luckily they decided not to break my heart for real this time... For me, the only problem with the movie is that characters are so changed. Like back in the series it was easy for me to hate Christian because he was SO toxic with Tara, he manipulated her bigtime. But he doesn't do it in this film and I really wanted them to break up because I think they are no good for each other. Anyway, they found their way to be happy and it (surprisingly) don't seem really forced to me. Also I really loved Xenia and Thomas's perfomance, great actors - best dancers!

Plot summary
Christian Reed feels betrayed but objects not when Tara, who waved a fat damages claim, which her top lawyer probably would have won, in return for another audition at the National Ballet, isn't selected and accept to move to New York, moving in with Kat and her brilliant lover. She fails to pass any major audition, worse the Ollie, who co-created a novel choreography. Indomitable Ben Tickle has moved in with the senior teacher after recovering from his cancer and trains their tails off with Tara, but has another relapse.

You need to see the show first
Besides, it didn't even win me over...
Overcoming movies usually win my heart, but musicals and dances, with their cake recipes for nothing and low sugar, bore me, like, better get off the diet by eating tasty, boring and boring stuff, (version) Portuguese from Portugal, only the soundtrack makes us love, makes us cry and want to go on screen, the end credits with photos and videos of the child actors, won S2... besides, it didn't even win me over...
What I needed
This film was great in the way it continued right where the series left off a few years prior. This film has so much emotion and I am glad they stayed with the original cast for this movie and it came across really well. I also loved that this movie showed that sometimes your dream isn't what you need and your ideas can change because of what happens to a person.
