. Synopsis A white midwestern girl moves to Chicago, where her new boyfriend is a black teen from the South Side with a rough, semi-criminal past. I have seen so many great movies lately such as Fight Club, Gladiator, Memento, Snatch so the only good thing about Save the Last Dance was to give me some perspective about the good movies from the bottom. Who enjoys watching a pretentious no brain movie with stereotype characters and predictable cliché plot? Thomas Carter has created a film full of embarrassing black stereotypes.
