Review of The Dancing Detective: A Deadly Tango

Remember those great series of the 80's like Hart to Hart, Moonlighting. MacMillan & Wife and so on? Complete escapist fun with a romantic twist. This one is extra special because it takes place on the magnificent island of Malta. The scenery is a feast for the eyes and the local culture is beautifully embraced. Lacey Chabert & Will Kemp are wonderful together. Their chemistry is easy and natural. There are several showcase scenes in the film including a very sexy water tango scene where Bailey & Sebastian practice their dance in a shallow pool overlooking the island. And a dream sequence dance number done in 40's style black & white, harkening back to the days of Fred & Ginger. All in all, good fun and doesn't take itself too seriously.
