Plot[edit]

One of my favorite 80's movies! Loved the music and dancing, with great music. Fun back in the day movie, when Salsa was it.:D Kenny Ortega is the choreographer. Salsa 1988 full movie.I hope you enjoy watching. Do you mean 'Salsa y Amor' (referrring to the French movie)? Yes, that was a very cute salsa movie, fun, funny and good music. Dirty Dancing I (1987) is one of my all time favorite dance movies, Havana Nights was not worth my time: no story, bad actors, hardly any dancing. I liked the movie Salsa with Robbie Rosa (1988).

In a nightly escape from his day job as a mechanic, Rico (Robby Rosa) enters his true element: the wild exuberance of 'La Luna' , a salsa club located in East Los Angeles, California. Dreaming of making himself and Vicky (Angela Alvarado), his girlfriend the 'King and Queen of Salsa', Rico pours all his energy into winning La Luna's Grand Salsa Competition. But when Luna (Miranda Garrison), the club's gorgeous owner sets her sights on making Rico her dance partner, Rico must decide what drives him, his ambition or his heart.
