Zoe Chao is electric and Anthony Mackie is studly in this sizzling dance movie set mainly in space. Expressive set design, including an emoting 8-bit computer screen, brilliant other-worldly use of light and colour, and a dash of home-made charm make a surprisingly robust aesthetic that supports the dancing conversations between the two leads. If you're wondering whether a romance movie has a love scene, it certainly does (why else get Anthony Mackie, who can do with his pecs what it took Rock Hudson a whole torso?), one that goes to great length and to a few surprising places. Also, featuring the fabulous Natalie Morales as a super hot state governor who rues the day she chose politics over dance class.
