Critics Missed the Point—Shocking, I Know Dance Flick got panned like it was trying to be Citizen Kane. Newsflash: it wasn’t. It’s a dumb, hilarious, unapologetic parody—Scary Movie for dance films—and it nails it. If you’ve ever seen Save the Last Dance or You Got Served, this movie roasts them perfectly. Is it stupid? Absolutely. But it’s also funnier than half the stuff with “Certified Fresh” slapped on it. Critics just didn’t get the joke—again.

LOL, the funniest 01 hour: and 23 minutes ever!!!!!!!!!!!! The spoof movie I will never forget!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is the best comedy since that 1978 classic, Animal House. The Academy Awards will be flying when thus hits the theaters again.

if you didn't watch it don't watch it you won't like it.

Okay watch at best, don't want to watch again, and I can't really recommend. For the most part, they managed to focus on dance movie references, but there was a Catwoman and Twilight reference that were really odd. I spent a lot of the movie questioning if things were funny or how offensive they were and if it was okay. Kind off pulled me out of the movie.

Where has this been hiding? speaking of hiding, months of quarantine in usa, this was a good morning blessing! hilarious flick, so stupid, rude, offensive, hope to watch later tonight. Deep into The Ozarks for dinner 4/30/20

i want to wathc the movie pplsssssss

Terrible movie, but can still give a few laughs. The acting is lacking and so are the verbal jokes, they didn't put any effort on these, the only jokes that work are the slapstick and nonsense ones... and the movie doesn't manage to make them work at all because only like 3 actors manage to make you laugh.

There are some movies you just have to stop watching after 15 minutes because you know they won't get any better. This is one of those films.

As a fan of the Wayans Brothers but not a fan of dance films, I didn't know what to really expect from Dance Flick. Although parody movies are often very stupid, since Dance Flick is a parody of a genre which is already ridiculously stupid, it has a lot of comedic potential, as well as the fact that it has major participation from the Wayans Brothers who are some of the funniest people to have happened to spoof humour in a long time. But despite their best efforts, Dance Flick eventually succumbs to its wounds and falls into the same bland and humourless territory that many other spoof films do these days. Dance Flick has a very funny opening scene due to capitalising on the over the top nature of Wayans Brothers style of over the top humour which puts a lot of comic emphasis on African American stereotypes. But soon after the intro, it becomes a generic story about Megan White, a girl whose has lost her mother, moved in with her alcoholic father and started at an inner city school for performing arts while she tries to leave dance behind. Unfortunately, Megan White is not an interesting character and Shoshanna Bush is not that funny in the role. I mean her performance is ok because considering the stupidity of the material presented to her and she does have a certain charm to her, but she isn't funny. Her character is a whiny and repetitive one who isn't nearly as funny as Cindy Campbell from Scary Movie. Dance Flick puts way too much focus into her and not enough into the Wayans Brothers who are the best source of comedy in the film. So unfortunately, much of Dance Flick is wasted potential. The general structure of Dance Flick is that it is a story about a girl trying to achieve her dreams while breaking away at random points to deal with subplots which feel like a series of comedic sketches. And for most of the time, the sketches are the funny parts while the main plot simply isn't. While Dance Flick could have spoofed dance battle movies, it keeps its focus a lot more on legitimate dance films instead. Of the two, dance battle films are a lot more ridiculous and as the film reveals in its opening scene, its form of parodying the genre is pretty hilarious at times. But soon after this gets reduced simply to a series of moments that detract from the actual intentions of the film. Dance Flick fails because it goes into territory which is inferior to what it could have been going into, and the jokes aren't funny because they only feature inconsistent appearances by the Wayans Brothers who are the only consistently funny element of the film and that is because of their over the top nature. Since they are absent from the spotlight in the film most of the time, Dance Flick ends up being an underwhelming film which just misses the mark and goes into dull and repetitive territory which has its gags getting stale pretty fast and failing to make the comedic impact that it really wants to. You can tell that with Dance Flick the five Wayans who have written the film had the best intentions and really tried, but a lot of the material just isnt funny and it is pretty bland when it could be hilarious. I mean the intro scene of the film was great because of its over the top nature and ridiculous parodying of dance battle films, but once it turns into the story about one girl's journey to prove herself and achieve her dreams, it just loses its edge. Dance Flick is better for its subplots than it is for its central plots, and it contains many unfunny female characters while featuring a lot of hilarious male African American characters. So despite having five writers collaborating, the communication occurring between them must not have been that strong. They were smart enough to ensure that the story was not reliant fully on pop culture references and that it was parodying genres as a whole and not just specific films. But it parodied the wrong dance genres and misused a hilarious cast by focusing on restrained humour instead of over the top jokes. A spoof film house to be out there and really excessive with how it lays down the thick headed and stupid humour, but Dance Flick is so cheap and so tame that it doesn't seem as if the filmmakers were really trying. Dance Flick does not achieve the same heights as the better spoof films and although it is far from one of the worst, it had potential to be a lot better which is wasted on tame jokes. Although Dance Flick is directed by a Wayans and written by several Wayans family members, the humour does not adapt to their iconic style and tries too hard to appeal to a wider audience by not boxing the film in. Unfortunately, the tame humour and uninspiring dance story make it a lot more female oriented without even poking much fun at how the genre is very female focused. Despite appearances by Marlon Wayans who makes a brief but hilarious presence during his short period of time on screen, Shawn Wayans' series of small appearances which are essentially one laugh after another and the consistently funny lead performance of Damon Wayans Jr. in his first leading role in a comedy, Dance Flick is only sporadically funny at best and is more focused on storytelling than originality and over the top humour, so it simply is not enough to do. So despite the efforts of the Wayans Brothers and a few really funny moments, Dance Flick is too tame for its own good and spoofs the wrong dance movies a bit too often so that its jokes to not reach the grasp needed to succeed as Wayans Brother quality humour in the best sense.

Damon Wayans Jr. stepping in for his older uncles and father in doing a spoof film of the various dance movies. Pretty silly and over the top, but that's what those movies were like too. A pretty good spoof of those movies, not quite at the levels of the first 2 Scary Movies, but I till liked it.

Bit too silly at moments (13) OWN BLU

I laughed maybe four times and one of those laughs came from a Ray Charles impression.

I know it sounds insane, but I have this incredibly vague feeling that I was supposed to find this film funny.

the funniest movie ever

"You have more chins than a Chinese phone book!" :)

The parodies here feel worn and are not as forthcoming as other spoof comedies of this style. As material is thin in the ground some of the film references date back to the early 80's.

A Flick in the sense that it made me flick the channel over within seconds. Since 'Don't be a Menace' and 'Scary Movie', the Wayans brothers have been swiftly falling from the funny tree and I think 'Dance Flick' is a sign that they have hit the ground.

So funny you have to see it

Ridiculous ! Stupid ! Unfunny ! Completely idiotic and waste of time ! DO NOT watch this crap ! One of the Worst comedy ( parody ) ever made !!!
