ReaderKenka Let's be realistic.
ChicDragon It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.
Salubfoto It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.
Billie Morin This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows
arielimdb The first thing that cross my mind after watching this horrible piece of crap was that i wasted 2 hours of my life, and that no matter how much i want to take back time i could not. Not even one laugh, a smile...nothing but disappointment. Bad acting, bad script, worse jokes, i don't really understand the purpose to make this movie, probably just the profit of it. In my opinion there is no argument to support the history, the development of the characters is weak, even for a comedy. There is no coherence between the dialogs, and while all this taking place , i just wanted to end, and it did, making no sense at all, as expected. Finally i have to say: avoid watching this film, its not worth of anyone's time.
Robert W. There is one thing in film that I can't stand especially in the last new millennium is the spoof genre. The ridiculous, over the top, disgusting humor that forces jokes into a tired story by making fun of various types of movies that don't deserve being made fun of. Scary Movie brought stupidity to a whole new level. The quality of films in the spoof genre shrank to the worse level of stupidity after the nineties leaving behind the Naked Gun films, Airplane and classics like that. All this being said imagine my shock when Dance Flick actually turned in a reasonably less stupid, and actually funny (even if it was guilty pleasure laughing) with a decent story no matter how silly it might be. The films they poke fun at actually work into their story and they use the teen dance flick "Save The Last Dance" as the basis of their story and that works too. The cast really meld well together and the toilet humor is in full swing which is almost a given with this type of movie, in some ways it always has been. But repeatedly I found myself laughing and shaking my head at the pure silliness but yet still entertaining me so bravo to them.Relative newcomer Shoshana Bush leads the cast as dancing hopeful and awkward clutz Megan. In true comedienne style Bush uses physical comedy and terrific facial expressions to really bring home the laughs. She likely has a promising career in comedy if she gets out of this spoof genre because as okay as this movie is...it's not likely to get her anywhere. Damon Wayans Jr. continues the Wayan's shaky ground career in spoof movies, lord knows the Scary Movie films were enough to make me never watch a spoof movie again. However Wayans Jr. does a decent job of not overdoing the slapstick comedy, a mistake his father made on numerous occasions. Wayans Jr. And Bush are kind of cute together but then don't have a lot of chemistry. Essence Atkins plays Wayans Jr's sister Charity and she is hilarious. Her over the top performance really stands out in this cast and she is ridiculously funny. Veteran young actor Affion Crockett is also good, very funny, and not overused as the best friend A-Con.If I sound like I'm talking this movie up like it's a must see treat of the year then let me back pedal. I still hate spoof movies and if I could go back in time I probably would have saved the Microsoft points (I rented it on Xbox 360) and not paid money or currency for this. That being said if you stumble onto it via cable or someone else rents it and forces you to watch it then you won't be at a complete loss of an hour and a half or less. Fortunately like many spoof films it has a mercifully short run time. The ridiculousness will make you smile despite yourself and the cast is decent enough to make it work. So if you can lower your intelligence or if you actually enjoy parody/spoof movies then this one is at least redeemable and that is saying something. 6/10
jasminemoniquebell A lot of people are bashing this movie to shreds. This movie is not to be bashed its hilarious. It brought me out of my depression for a little while. It makes fun of classic dance movies. It could be offensive to those with little to no sense of humor. It kinda picks at gays,African American community,fat people,whites from the suburbs,Interacialdating, All the while doing it in a realistic stereotypical way. As a ex fat girl & African American I was not at all offended. Sometimes the best comedy is the one thats politically incorrect & free to be itself. People that think this movies bad don't know comedy its better then the typical spoof like movies out there. I think the wayans brothers did a glorious job at writing it. I wouldn't say its a 10 out of 10 but I would say its def. about half of that. It deserves better applause & recognition then its been getting. It maybe stupid but its def. funny & not predictable.
Christopher Tsangari Just like Steven Seagal should have stopped making films long ago, the Wayans Bros should have stopped while they were at a high.Only 10 people filled the cinema seats, including me. I was tempted to leave half way as there was no story to keep me interested, but the humour is nothing inventive.You will find yourself laughing at some of the slapstick that's thrown at you, but the film is a real waste of good money and time. I don't think even Five.TV will want to show it either, and they're good at putting really dire films on.Choose another film to watch. The Wayans Brothers have had a very good run over the last 17 years and they should leave it at that.I mean, even the one single fart-joke was badly used in one scene. It's the one last weapon for a laugh in a film and they still managed to bodge it all up.
