Review of Cuban Fury (2014) by Panta O — 01 Jul 2014
A romantic comedy with a Salsa flair is coming from UK, directed by James Griffiths and written by Jon Brown. Starring amazingly casted Nick Frost, Rashida Jones and Chris O'Dowd, I was surprised how well suited all of them were for those demanding roles! Especially Nick Frost...
The story of the former teen salsa champion Bruce Garrett (Frost) who is now overweight engineer who stopped dancing long time ago because of bullies who abused him, was a sweet and charming . It wasn't anything special, just a simple pleasant entertainment with always good-natured Nick Frost, and with amazingly suited Chris O'Dowd relishing his role as a slimeball. The best part starts when Bruce's passion for dancing is re-ignited by his crush on his gorgeous American boss Julia (Rashida Jones). He knows that de doesn't have the looks and he thinks that the only way he can win her over is by mastering the Salsa. Of course, it is not easy to reignite his inner passion which was buried for so long...
It is a crowd pleaser with room for improvement! I enjoyed it.
