Dance Flick
Megan White, a naive teen, and Thomas Uncles, a student from the wrong side of the tracks, find common ground in their love of dancing. Their bond helps them realize their dreams as they enter in the mother of all dance battles.

The main problem is its sheer laziness. Where the likes of Airplane! ...had a soft spot for the genre they were satirising and used that to cleverly subvert expectations and provide surprises, everything about Dance Flick is tame.

Dance Flick occasionally hits its mark with nimble execution. But too often it stumbles clumsily into bad taste.

If there exists anyone in the comedy business less funny than the Wayans clan, it's Amy Sedaris, so she's here, too.

This intermittently funny spoof on dance movies has more Wayans in it than actual laughs.

I'm trying to think of something nice to say about this movie but I'm drawing a blank.

The material is weak, the focus is too narrow, the pacing is laboured, as if the editors were cutting in anticipation of the laugh track.

In this enjoyably dirty-minded sendup of when-ballet-met-hip-hop youth musicals, the Wayans brothers hand the directorial reigns over to their nephew, Damien Dante Wayans, who piles on the stupid/smart gags with just the right what-the-hell abandon.

It is a truth universally acknowledged that a genre that has met with some success must be in want of parody.

Yes, it's rated PG-13, except it's also inappropriate for anyone over 13.

The jokes here aren't just low-hanging fruit, they are fruit lazily taken out of the moldy pile.

The genre is ripe for mocking. But this steers clear of smart observational comedy and goes for gross-out every time.

I may like this genre of comedy, but a film like this makes me hope it's going to fade soon.
