Plots(1)
As the film opens, we meet Thomas Uncles (Damon Wayans Jr.), a hip-hop hopeful whose dance-competition loss puts him in debt to gargantuan gang leader Sugar Bear (David Alan Grier). But his luck begins to change when he meets the new girl at his performing-arts high school, Megan White (Shoshana Bush), an aspiring ballerina whose Juilliard dreams are shattered when her mother dies a heroically protracted death on her way to Megan’s audition. Though they start as prickly competitors, it isn’t long before Thomas and Megan’s mutual love of dance enables them to overcome the social and racial barriers between them. But will their unlikely love story be enough to inspire all of the school’s students, rekindle Megan’s dreams, and save Thomas as he returns to the hip-hop battlefield of his earlier defeat?

How many Wayans are too many Wayans? I really love this family, Shawn and Marlon are icons of the genre and when the whole family comes together in one movie it's bizarre. It falls short of a cult-classic among parodies in quality and the humour is borderline embarrassing, but the film certainly had a few moments and anything that takes a jab at High School Musical or Twilight has a green light with me. It was good.

In this movie, we saw a half of the Wayans family. I actually wouldn’t be surprised if every black person in that movie was a member of that enormous family, because that could have filled the bill just fine. It’s just a shame that this movie is so awfully stupid; and I don’t usually have a problem with their comedies. But I thought that this movie could have slammed all the dance movies that have surfaced recently. And I’m not saying it didn’t, but most of the jokes that made me laugh were stolen and the other jokes were gross – sometimes a little, sometimes a lot. And I think that’s been completely uncalled for in parodies for quite some time now.
