The spoof movie Dance Flick is the creation of an army of normally funny Wayans men: Damien Dante Wayans directing, from a script written by him and Keenen Ivory Wayans, Shawn Wayans, Marlon Wayans, and Craig Wayans. Craig Wayans and Damon Wayans Jr. star in what should have been, in the tradition of Airplane!, a rich parody of a genre that could use a little spoofing, i.e., earnest dance movies in the vein of High School Musical, Flashdance, and, especially, Save the Last Dance. Damon Wayans Jr. plays a determined, African American hip-hop dancer named Thomas Uncles, who becomes romantically and artistically involved with a white wannabe ballerina (Shoshana Bush in the Julia Stiles role from Last Dance). Dance Flick goofs on Last Dance in obvious and silly ways, but the Wayans also take shots at just about everything that pops into their heads: Twilight, Dick Cheney, the self-consciousness of interracial romance. There are a few laughs, but in the absence of a sustained comic tone and consistently good ideas, the script relies on endless bathroom humor and such throwaway visual ideas as a baby stored in a high school locker. --Tom Keogh

 Good but not great. May 24, 2010
the smart guy
This movie tried really hard to be funny. And I give the directors credit for trying really hard. This movie is packed with one-liners and absurd sub-plots. This movie tries hard to be a good spoof like Airplane! and The Naked Gun. And in a lot of ways it succeeds. The stand out character is the dance instructor who has a very bad case of camel toe. And at the end of the movie she beat-boxes in a very absurd way. One of the characters is a gay guy that actually has a dance and song number. If you want a few laughs then check this out. Grade: B

The Wayans family is to comedy what the Jackson family is to music, they are legendary and have truly paved the way for alot of the stuff thats out today. I like the movie because the humor was relatable, at times some of the jokes slipped passed and you had to rewind it because you were so busy laughing at the previous scene. I got this movie expecting some corny lines and characters and within the first 10 minutes I was proven wrong.It has some sappy parts like every movie does, but they love to make fun of life and stereotypes. It was also very fun to try and figure out who was family and who was not ..this film is flooded with wayans blood and its great how the family keeps up laughs. I recommend this flick.
 Just a bad movie! December 15, 2009

I can keep this review simply by saying this movie was very bad! Low brow and not in a good way. Watching this one can easily understand why the scary movie franchise only became funny when the Wayans brothers left and the Zuckers took over!
