THE REVIEW

I just got back from the cinema because my girlfriend forced me to watch this colossal piece of crap!

But why do all of us poor cinema lovers deserve all this?? Why???

Why do they keep making the same movies all the time??? Why do they always have to commercially exploit the same pre-packaged films for teenagers??

Why do these damn movies always have the same ploooot??? A girl has the dream of dancing, her parents don't want her to, they send her to a school of snobs, there she befriends a guy (and you immediately know they'll end up falling in love), her street dance gang rejects her, then she puts together a team of nerds to beat her ex-gang, but at first no one gives them any attention, so they work hard, work hard... until they manage to win and prove to everyone that they are the most badass in the world and that (surely) they will succeed. All seasoned with wonderful reflections like: 'Dance brings us all together', 'A girl must follow her dream', 'anything is possible' and other similar philosophical insights.

 In the end, everyone is happy and content, and the two dumb... erm protagonists kiss (but unfortunately don't get it on).

 Whyyyyy???? Whyyyy?? WHYYYYY????

 

 

Warnings: this is a crappy review for a crappy movie, so don't be too harsh, thanks :D

 

P.S. In my opinion, it would have been better to spend SEVEN EUROS AND FIFTY on watching my toilet flush. Definitely.
