Work It

I love dance movies, but this one didn't do it for me.

The dancing and the acting was so vacuous, it left me feeling empty inside. You didn't get to know the characters at all, it was just the lead's voice over explaining it to you, like the director really didn't trust you to understand any subtext.

Shallow and generic, but good if you want something cheesy to talk over. :)

Quinnn during an interview at college, lets it slip that she was part of the "Thunderbirds", an excellent and well-known dance group. The problem is, she can't dance. So, she auditions to be part of it. She fails, of course, so she decides to start her own group.

Let me just say that I LOVE Jordan Fisher. This could have been a movie in which he makes sandwiches while riding a bike and I would have still watched it. Jordan is the reason I decided to watch this, but I was pleasantly surprised. I don't know if Liza Koshy's acting was good but she convinced me, she was the funny one and she made me laugh. I love Keiynan Lonsdale. I'm glad he was here. It was my first time watching Sabrina, I was satisfied with her work.

Look, the movie isn't nothing spectacular, but it's fun to pass the the time. However, I had two big problems: Firstly, Quinn is 17? And Jake was surely over +21 and I don't know how things are in the States and that is illegal in my country and it makes me a bit uncomfortable, she is a minor. Secondly, you cannot learn how to dance THAT well in two months. I know, it's a movie, but still. Let's keep it realistic.

If you're bored on a Sat night and want to watch a cute little movie, put this on. Don't expect too much, the plot isn't great even almost predictable but I won't bash this movie I expect that out of a movie like this. It wasn't too bad, just not great.

Movie overall is a cute, easy watch. It would be nice if one of these "dance" movies about what high school/college competitions are like were anywhere near accurate. Where are the coaches, where are the actual jazz/lyrical choreographed routines and the months it takes to get them down? Not just some pretend booty shaking to Top 40 music.

I don't agree with all the mega comment here. I agree it's a very typical movie with predict ending but I liked it. Could have been worse! It made me want to dance even though I can't dance at all and absolutely loved Jordan Fisher! He's superb
