Watch Dance Flick For Free

Really Surprised!

From my favorite movies..

everything you have heard about this movie is true.

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

Dance Flick (2009): Dir: Damien Wayans / Cast: Shoshana Bush, Essence Atkins, Damon Wayans, Christina Murphy, David Alan Grier: Flimsy comedy that makes fun of dance films. Directed by Damien Wayans with special effects that sometimes work and sometimes don't. Story is none existent. It's just a series of sight jokes with a cast that are helpless to improve it. Wayans proves to know the genre but he fails to provide a story to employ that knowledge. Shoshana Bush plays the white girl hoping to bust into dancing. She is coached by a black dancer, which leads to obvious romance and much finger pointing. Essence Atkins plays her best friend who brings her baby about in a backpack then stuff him in a locker. Damon Wayans plays Atkins' brother who teaches Bush dance moves. Christina Murphy plays the snide top dancer in a role that has been played and parodied so many times that the role must have highlight notes on every script it ever appears in. David Alan Grier plays a character named Sugar Bear and one can expect that this isn't the cartoon bear from the breakfast cereal. It sets out to make fun of High School Musical and any other musical made within the previous thirty years. At times very funny such as the scene where a father stops by to "pick up his son" but ultimately it is just a tired retread of dance movie clichés that were long since forgotten. Score: 5 / 10

I'm going to make this plain and simple. If you like the Wayans Brothers, watch the movie. The movie has its funny moments just like any other films the Wayans Brothers star in. So if you're a fan of White Chicks and/or the Scary Movie series, I can't find a reason why you wouldn't appreciate this film. Like seriously, the movie is a comedy-based film creating spoofs just like any other spoof-movie would. In fact, I enjoyed this movie so much, it reminded me of their old school film called "Im Gonna Get You Sucka" where humor was about being original. So on that note, its a COMEDY FILM. Some people enjoy them while others don't. If you're a college student looking for laughter, corniness, and cheesiness? This is the movie for you and your friends if you're looking for a good time.

STAR RATING: ***** Saturday Night **** Friday Night *** Friday Morning ** Sunday Night * Monday Morning The art of making a decent spoof film seems to have gone out the window these days. It's either they're all obsessed with vulgarity or they've all been done better before. This latest offering from the Wayans brothers, sending up all the recent smattering of dance movies from Save the Last Dance to the remake of Fame, is sort of a mix of both, especially if you compare it to their brilliant Scary Movie films. They're certainly very thorough, sending up every pop culture about in films at the moment, including, for instance, David Hasselhoff's drunken camcorder ramblings, but a good laugh is had once every blue moon. Sadly, instead of managing a steady rhythm, this send up has two left feet. **

I have seen some of the Wayans Brothers previous movies. Although, I'm not a big fan of spoofs, I do like the occasional one and thought this movie would make me laugh a little (like Scary Movie did), I Was Wrong!! I couldn't finish watching it, it was just... too terrible. The exaggerated jokes are just not funny... AT ALL. I also think there was too much offending going around; I have to admit that I have laughed at offensive jokes in other movies (we all have), but this one just goes over board a bit, to the limit where is just offensive and not funny. I really like comedies and movies that make me laugh in general, I think it makes me feel happier and gives my brain a bit of a vacation from the stress, so I actually feel offended by how the writers thought that we might actually laugh at a bunch of absurdities that don't really make sense. Please, Do Not Waste Your Money on this film and try to find something better to watch.
