fluidling . In this movie a baby is clearly afraid and not happy at all and I think that is just wrong. So I quit watching it and it was actually a good idea as the movie was not funny overall but rather boring.The actors are the same of the scary movies flicks but now they just don't deliver, so don't waste your time on this one.

SanteeFats Definitely not a politically correct movie by any stretch of the imagination. I loved it!! A racially mixed movie that shows a lot of stereotypical typecasting but no racial tensions in the movie which was a little surprising. The Wayan's family is prevalent through out this film. Some of the roles are a little over the top (Essence Atkins for one) but still funny. Dance crews go head to head, one loses, one wins, the losers owe a loan shark for the contest but can't pay him back. They have week to do so. So now the losers need to get some lucre. So many little scenes that are so funny. Some are so ghetto (sorry) but they are really funny. David Allen Grier in a fat suit was not very funny, maybe he needed the money. I never heard of Shoshana Bush but she ain't bad. I really liked the last scene where she was committing to Damon Wayans Jr. until white folks came by and then she plays him as her valet.

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

Stampsfightclub Megan (Bush) moves away from her troubled home life to pursue her career in dancing, all the while adjusting to her new life and preparing for the biggest dance battle in history The comedy genre has hit a slump over the past decade, particularly with spoof related genres, evident when watching Disaster Movie, Scary Movies etc. So the premise doesn't look too wonderful when seeing the trailer for Dance Flick, which epitomizes the use of slapstick in identifying the underlying nature of High School Musical and Step Up 2.But having an open mind and a friend who can get me in the cinema for free, I politely agreed to view this Wayans picture with him and in all honesty, we knew this would be awful, but oddly despite the degrading nature of the plot, the terrible slapstick and the degrading humour of character representation, it is by no means the worst spoof you will ever view.The plot is a gimmick of Step Up 2 the streets, taking into account the central character Megan moving away from home to pursue a career in dancing before getting involved in the underground scene. Having watched that 2007 release seeing the comparisons here were fairly accurate, bar the awful humour. In fairness, Dance Flick depicts the nature of Step Up 2 quite well. However this doesn't stop viewers from being sickened once more by an awful array of disgusting jokes.Evident with Disaster Movie amongst other spoofs, we are delivered humour around physical appearance and abnormality and sick acts, and this picture is no different. From the gangster leader's weight problems to hanging a baby in a school locker, this is silly waffle, a film made for pure attack on modern well intended films. Perhaps 10 years ago it may have been humorous, but now with the plot so carbon copy of another we can see the punch lines coming, and this predictability weighs the suspense and intrigue down and with that comes a formula of boredom when annoyance sets in.Performances wise none of the main actors really generate enough capability to even carry out some of the physical comedy. Megan's expression when kicking everyone when dancing is ridiculous, whilst Thomas is stone faced from start to finish.If there are any other positives then they lie with the director and choreographer for making the last dance battle well staged, even if the fat gangster stereotype ruins it with the jump and squish move.The inclusion of some dance and sing sequences is a step away from the norm, but are very cringe worthy, especially the high school musical Tony moment about his true orientation.At the end of the day Dance Flick is your basic normal unfunny spoof that is only different from other recent spoofs by choosing different films to target. It isn't the worst film you will ever see, but nor is it the best.
