Honey: Rise Up and Dance

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.

I was a fan of both leads in this movie but oh my god this movie seems like it has them at their worst the acting felt off from the start even the supporting actors (the dancers) had a very weird vibe at times it felt like I was watching a soap opera episode. The storyline could have been better. Some of the scenes you can tell were edited without realising it wouldn't make sense. Don't waste your time watching

I can't lie: I've hated the "Honey" franchise. The dancing is always basic and the storylines were never great. I guess you don't really watch Honey for that.

This movie, though, was solid. It was nice to watch people who danced and looked to enjoy it. The chemistry among the cast throughout this film was noticeably better, too. I still wish the storyline was stronger but I did enjoy it.

Higher rating for the music only. Unlikable characters, choreography from the strip club and stale acting. Just watch Save the Last Dance 2 and stop at Honey 2. Better everything with similar storylines, but with more substance and culture.

Terrible stereotyped boring hip-hop dancing film. All the female actors/dancers filled up those roles just looked pretty cheap, showing cheap sexual movements like street walkers, very filthy and dirty dancing skills on every soundtrack. The carp-mouthed & lipped leading actor and all of those females didn't give you any pure dancing aesthetic but sexual flesh and meat tricks, making the so-called Hip-Hop dance more like the other way to pimp around. I like this specific dance and love it what we have seen in "So You Think You Can Dance" and some of the other similar genre dancing movies, but not this one. It just felt cheap and abject, rustic and wild. The film itself also showed its limit in script and scenario.
