An Exercise In Nonsense

A Major Disappointment

The movie is wildly uneven but lively and timely - in its own surreal way

It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

Finally, Disney Channel made a movie about dancing, and not just a sport like they usually do. I especially enjoyed this movie since I am a dancer myself."Gotta Kick it Up" is about a group of high school students who form a dance team. They're not the best, but when they finally get their new coach, they'll do whatever it takes to be their best. This movie shows teamwork and how everyone should work together to achieve any goal.This movie is definitely one of my favorites that I will never forget.Check it out if it's on Disney Channel again sometime, it will get you dancing along too!

I loved Gotta Kick it Up! It was fairly predictible, but it was soo sweet. It had more then girls just dancing around, too. I guess that Disney has no faith in their movies, because I think that this would have done great in theatres.

This is by far the worst attempt to identify with the latin population and kids in particular. Right about the moment the main character started dancing (practically out of no where!) her friend started chanting "go daisy go daisy" or what ever the heck her name was. The plot is so stupid, the main character wants to make something out of herself by dancing in high school competitions. The team's motto is "si su puede" which means "yes I can" in spanish, I suppose they thought it would mean more if it wasn't in english. Did disney really think that high school dancing would make that dramatic of a story. So she overcomes stress with family and friends and predictibly becomes a successful dancer, boring boring boring. As a latin myself this movie insults me greatly to portray them as such self absorbed idiots. Don't watch this movie if you want a serious drama (this is disney after all) or an intelligent movie. (Grade= o *'s out of 10).

Aside from the horribly predictable plot line, and the annoying use of 1 Spanish word in a sentance to make it have a ghetto Latino feel it was too bad. Disney has tried to get out of its good two shoes feel and hopefully will eventually. The movie was good and sweet but what can you expect from Disney other then that?
