Comedy with two left feet

Dance Flick (2009)

The Wayans family pull another parody film off the production line, this time staring Shoshana Bush and Damon Wayans Jr. A girl from the suburbs ends up at an inner city school, some dancing happens.

I have not seen a lot of the films that this film sets out to parody which probably does not help matters but it does seem like someone forgot to include the funny here. There are a few funny moments but largely the parody elements included do not actually seem that funny and are just included for the sake of having a reason to make the film. Most of the “humour” included seems to come from the standard Wayans style of jokes and has little to do with the main subject matter.

2/5
