All still beats the shameless heart of a by-the-numbers diversion


Hi

Could you please help me to understand the line in red? I don't get it at all. Thanks for the help.

Film critic Kenneth Turan on the 'Footloose' remake: ... the clothes are tighter, the bodies more toned, the dancing hotter, the characters more racially diverse, the sexual context more obvious. But underneath it all still beats the shameless heart of a by-the-numbers diversion that acts as if these particular dots have never been connected before.
