this film ,in general, is barely watchable due to the badly scripted and crafted screenplay and not exciting directing. casting jobs were about 50/50 good/bad. the storyline felt contritely primitive and one-directional boring. the principal, the reverend and most of supporting roles were overly exaggeratedly barbaric and out of the touch with the modern day value. treating immigrants as possible terrorists was also felt contrite and out dated, looked stupid and ridiculous. the dance class was not bad, but also felt a bit naive and shallow, albeit interesting. a typical lukewarm product from a very loose uninspiring screenplay with a so-so director. a young lady from a die-hard conservative Iranian family, grew up and struggled between a dilemma of traditional culture and modern day American way of life and thinking was also a overly used cliché scenario. this is just a passably watchable film that do need some patience to sit through.
