It's a sweet, funny story, and the choreography is mildly interesting, but we've seen this dance before.

Mad About Mambo's steps may be as familiar as the hokeypokey, but there's just enough gusto in the execution to make it a guilty pleasure.

Ash and Russell ... generate just enough tension to keep the audience interested.

But Ash is a charmer, and Russell (whose Irish accent is passable) flings around her fondly remembered mane with flirtatious gusto.

Top Critic Nothing more than an ultra-formulaic Hollywood romantic fantasy grafted onto Belfast.
