Honey: Rise Up and Dance (2018) Reviews

• They think that is Hip Hop???

  I love dance movies from Center Stage right up to Step Up but this movie is such a let down. I loved the first Honey movie so many moves from it were used in dance competitions. When it was first released it was new, fresh and exciting for young dancers to copy Honey and make it their own feeling confident on the floor. Personally I hope to never see 90% of the choreography in this movie in a competition or dance movie again, its not dancing when all you're doing is feeling yourself and shaking your ass. Granted both can be incorporated into a routine but they should not be all of what it is comprised of. If this is the future of dance movies and Hip Hop dance in general I feel truly sorry for future generations of upcoming dancers.

  Great movie. I thought it would be bad, but it really wasn't! The storyline was good, and the actors pulled it off, especially the lead actors. The dance movies weren't the best I've seen in a dance movie, but they weren't bad either. My only criticism is that they had the girls shaking way too much booty and doing too little actual hip hop dance moves.

  I put this movie on as a joke. Based on the title, it seems like any other typical, low quality dance movie. I was wrong. THIS MOVIE WAS AMAZING. The soundtrack, the dancing, the character chemistry. First time I've written an IMDB review because I want credit given wher credit is due.

• Excellent Movie

  There are so many horrible Honey movies. I like this one. Yes, its not perfect but I think Teyana was great. I've seen a lot worse in dance movies.

  I like to say I understand about movies and film making, and this movie has many flaws. Technical aspects such as music and light are ok, nothing special But the story and the characters are way too generic, boring and annoying to be real people. These characters are just generic movie characters written by script writers that obey to movie stereotypes and have no human emotions or rational thought I am no dancer nor am I familiarized with the evolution of modern hip hop, but I thought the dancing was good for the most part The thing that annoyed me the most about the dances is that the sequences never last more than 5 seconds, so any dancer that would like to replicate the choreography would not be able to do it, since every 5 seconds, the movie cuts to a different routine where the same characters are suddenly in different places of the stage dancing something different to the same song. So besides of not being a good movie for movie enthusiasts, it's not even dancer friendly This movie has already been done a million times, yet didn't innovate a single thing considering other similar movies. All the dancers were good, and their potential was not fully broadcasted in this film, which is a shame...
