Best Dance Movies (and where to watch them)

You don’t have to be a dancer to appreciate great dance movies. Check out this collection of the best dance movies from Footloose to the Step Up movie franchise. (with streaming services included in each movie!). Some of the movies we've included tell the stories of dancers, others simply highlight dancing as a storytelling resource.

We've also chosen the highest-rated movies according to IMDb users, so you can order them alphabetically, in order of release year, or based on ratings. The list is currently sorted by highest ratings, but you can use the filter tool to sort and figure out based on what you're looking for.

Bear in mind some of the movies we've included are about dancing, but they are not appropriate for children, so make sure you check the detailed information about each of them before preparing a marathon with children.
