Dance Flick (2009)
2/10
Tired even by the spoof genre level of films
5 June 2009
Warning: Spoilers
The Wayans family passes the torch to the next generation with yet another painful spoof film of the seemingly endless urban dance films that seem to pop up in the multiplex every couple of weeks. I don't really see the point since anyone who's seen any of the films spoofed would agree that many are actually pretty funny in their own right. The plot follows the usual "kids needing to dance ending up in make or break competition while finding romance along the way" rut. The problem is that the plot is so terribly clichéd that there really is no need to watch since you know whats going to happen.(yes I know its a spoof but its lacking any sort of creativity or effort beyond the obvious so it becomes painful going) For better or worse some of the jokes are funny, but they usually come at the end of much too long a set up. As it is I've wasted too many words on the lousy film in order to get over the minimum length. My best advice is avoid this.
