Mighty glad that I was able to see it this evening, although at Pants Odeon, as I missed it last week. I used to do salsa, so really looking forward to this. They used to run classes at my ex-company's gym. I loved the dance, so vibrant and exhilarating.
Nice to see a few FMUKers, funthing, livi92, tsoiboy, elski. Those guys popped up again, and they sat right next to funthing, where I wanted to sit too, but never mind, tsoiboy, me and my friend had good seats on the other side of the aisle, with no heads in the way!
Well my friend and I enjoyed this. She even spotted a colleague in the scene above the pub doing the salsa class!
It does not leave any lasting impression but it was heart warming, charming and inspiring. I read something afterwards, may be it was on twitter, that "Proof that dancing is the solution to EVERYTHING" and when I googled it again, I found this link:

Hilarious!!
I did half expect Nick Frost, after all the dancing, to be slimmed down at the end for the comp. hehe. I felt Ian McShane and Olivia Coleman were trying to make something out of their roles, shame their parts were so underused. But a very, very easy watch, just going with the flow, I found it really funny, except the bickering between Nick Frost and Chris O’Dowd, until the car park scene. Everyone groaned when we saw the cameo. 7/10
