Let me start by saying this that I had never heard about this movie before and it was pure coincidental and through the divine intervention of internet browsing that I bumped into it. Followed by watching the trailer and impressed by the dance moves shown, I decided to watch the movie "make your move" or in words "Romeo and Juliet in step up"Those who loved step up, street dance and all other dance movies would surely love this because, yes the movie has a lot of dance moves that will make your jaw drop but is that enough to make you watch the movie
.hmmm
totally depends on your patience levelThe movie story is totally romeo and Juliet (if you have missed my hints in the above two paragraphs) having kids from two rivaling clans falling for each other and surviving through the hatreds and rivalry but sadly the movie does not explore much on the romance quotient which I guess is acceptable considering that this is in whole a dance movie.The good points is definitely the music and dance routines and having professional dancer (Derek hough) and musician (BOA) for lead characters do actually make it better but can they pull off a story other than dance routines
.sadly ..for me
no..There is no plot to the movie per say and whatever story is there kind off runs like a marathon and too fast for you to actually cope up
the movie pretty much follows a strict regime which is 5 min story 15 min dance routine and this follows throughout the movie but nevertheless I loved it for being a sweet chick flick and most of all for the dance routines. Its fine unless you are expecting a through and through entertainerThe movie has no plot and whatever plot is actually taken from the usual Disney movies and threaded together to narrate an obvious story. You will predict everything from the moment the titles starts showing up but the movie has some real good dance sequences that kind of is worth the pain

Derek Hough, Emmy winning Dancing with the Stars pro, and Asian star Boa collaborate on the theme of dance and love. Theirs is a Romeo and Juliet story for the modern age complete with feuding brothers and problems looming.If you watch DWTS and know Derek's dance brilliance you will be amazed at his tap dancing in this film which looks so professionally done even though he is new to tap. And those like me who know little of Boa will be equally impressed with her abilities.The love story is sweet and tender and touches your heart. There is only a minimal amount of violence and language and a maximum amount of dance. Great for a date movie. Good for families and just to see that gorgeous Derek body makes it a winner for girls night out. Yum!

I absolutely love Derek. This was the first reason I watched it and he most surely did not disappointed me. How could he? He's an amazing artist! There is nothing he can't do. Honestly, I enjoyed this movie a lot! The plot, the acting, the dancing... It is probably the only dance movie I really liked this much. The song Let me in" really stuck into my brain, brilliant work, wish Derek was the one singing it.I really could see Make your move" making a second movie, cause it would be really wonderful to see what Donny and Aya achieved, how they evolved in dancing and of course what other difficulties they had to cross. Derek is a huge possibility to become a movie star, he can act, he can dance, he can sing......and he looks breathtaking! I am really sorry that my review can look not too objective, it is really only how I feel. Derek really knows how to create an intimate atmosphere and even we, behind the screen can feel it. That makes is so brilliant. Dancing can say so much too, Right? Oh! Did I mention Derek?? He's lovely and funny in everything he does. ♥

Actually, I don't quite get why people leave so many negative feedback regarding this amazing movie. "Make Your Move" is one of the best movies about dancing and expressing the feelings through the moves, about passion, hard work and, of course, love. Pure love, which comes with lots of struggle and problems and which, on the other hand, makes people believe in themselves, makes them do things that they even could not have imagined of being possible to do. Romeo-Juliet-like story is really fascinating, and in the movie we can see a completely different, new side of it, which we have never seen before; the storyline is really wonderful - it kept me sitting on the edge of my seat, because there were so many cliffhangers I really enjoyed. To say more, I was really amazed by the incredible choreography, the soundtracks were fabulous as well, and I absolutely love the cast and the crew which did a great job - so many talented people in one movie, isn't it startling? I wish I could erase my own memory and watch this movie again and enjoy it in its whole like I did when I watched it for the first time. One of my favorite movies for sure, and I'm quite picky at this point. "Make Your Move" is an amazing movie about dancing, passion, love and so much more - I will never regret the day I made the decision to watch it.
