Jessica Alba swivels and pops her way to the top (or at least into Missy Elliot's heart) in hip-hop dance flick Honey. Honey Daniels (Alba, Dark Angel) dances in nightclubs; when she accidentally gets videotaped, a hip-hop video director spots her unique talent and hires her first as a dancer, then as a choreographer. But when he wants her body as much as her talent, how will she sustain her career? And how will this affect her dream of creating a dance studio for the local street kids? Honey is the usual Hollywood silliness, executed with sincerity but not much imagination. For some reason, Alba's sexy gyrations are supposed to be more empowering than other dancers' sexy gyrations, while being no less titillating. Featuring Mekhi Phifer, David Moscow, and cameos by hip-hop stars like Missy Elliot and Ginuwine. --Bret Fetzer

 Terrible Movie February 8, 2010
Xabbyy (USA)
I am happy to say I didn't spend money on seeing this film in the movie theaters.
The acting in the film is horrible. Alba was cast for her looks. Her acting in this film is soooo over the top I couldn't bare to watch anymore.
The dancing was great and had me wishing I could move like that but everything else about the film... SUCKED!!!!!
I would not recommend this movie to ANYBODY. Just terrible.
 Five Stars. I wish I could give Ten Stars. January 5, 2010
Ronald in Hawaii (Kailua-Kona, Hawaii United States)
A confession: I am a HUGE Jessica Alba fan. That said, I gave one star to Meet Bill and two stars to Awake. I wish I could give this movie ten stars. Jessica looks gorgeous in this movie and gets in lots of screen time.
Granted, the plot is a little thin -- one more shoot for your star theme a la Flashdance, except the setting is far less cheesy than Flashdance's silly version of a strip club.
The Special Features on this movie are also excellent and extensive. This is a movie where you can tell EVERYONE on the crew would have really enjoyed making and being a part of. Go Jessica!!! Very nice work!

This is a very inspiring movie for teens everywhere. I liked the moral of the story and overall the whole movie is great. Jessica Alba really out did her self and the new actors like Lil Romeo and Missy Elliot the movie is great.
A study in pursuing your dreams.... December 18, 2009

This is a movie whose theme is all too familiar: fight for your dream, even when the odds are stacked against you. However, being that I love to dance, I watched this film and became familiar not only with Honey (Jessica Alba), but also the young boys she inspires in the film--Benny (Lil Romeo) and his little brother Raymond (Zachary Isaiah Williams). This film is not just about following your dream; it's about the power of positive reinforcement and believing in yourself, no matter how hard things get. When things took a turn for the worse for our hero(ine)s, they faltered momentarily, but they never threw in the towel; instead, they saw a vision of a better life for themselves down the road. I identify with the characters Benny and Raymond, needing a creative, positive outlet for their energy to be channeled--instead of the bleak alternative of succumbing to the negative influences of the neighborhood.

This movie is so bad, I don't even really want to write a review about it. Take every dancing movie cliche, music video technique, and Jessica Alba, roll it up into a sickingly sweet 90 minute story and you get Honey which, despite its name, really stinks. Unless you are a big Jessica Alba fan, like Coyote Ugly, this movie is just way to lame once you get past the hot young female lead trying to make her way in life. I will repeat this over and over, little kids 99% of the time just ruin a movie. This holds true, with a annoying little kid that is suppose provide the cuteness, but I would prefer to see dribbled like a basketball and shot out of the movie. About the only kid I've seen in a movie that didn't annoy me was the little girl in Aliens. People need to stop putting little kids in movies! They are not cute! They are annoying!
