"The main problem is its sheer laziness. Where the likes of Airplane! ...had a soft spot for the genre they were satirising and used that to cleverly subvert expectations and provide surprises, everything about Dance Flick is tame."
Eye for Film
Amber Wilkinson
"'Dance Flick' may be offensive to dancers and other living things, but it's also very funny."
ReelTalk Movie Reviews
Betty Jo Tucker
3.5/5
"a very funny, very entertaining film. Is it perfect? No way. Does it live up to the reputation of classic comedy spoofs like Airplane! and The Naked Gun? Well... yes."

"I mean, come on: it's a scant 75 minutes long, contains a well-deserved swipe at the goofiness that is the
Twilight
saga, and features a beatboxing vagina. If that doesn't marginally entertain you, nothing will."

2/4
"So is
Dance Flick
worth recommending? Not for everyone, or for many. But there is an exuberance in the direction, and a certain not-easily-offended audience who will eat it up. You know who you are."

2/4
"Aside from a half dozen salient bits that call bull**** on the white-black symbiosis portrayed in films such as Step Up, more times than not
Dance Flick
falls flatter than Eddie Murphy's butt in
Norbit
."

"So to all the world's 8th-graders I say this: Don't give up hope! Keep making the same jokes you're making now, and you may one day be a filmmaker, too!"

"A spoof on dance movies that offers escapism of the lowest sort."

"Parental Content Review"
Screen It!
Jim Judy
2.5/5
"Pro forma and tasteless, if not excessively vulgar, the movie loses its urgency when it becomes an almost verbatim example of the melodrama it's skewering."
Boxoffice Magazine
John P. McCarthy
2/5
"For the die-hard fans of the spoof genre, this will be more of the same. But for the rest of us... well, it's more of the same, just in a worse way."
7M Pictures
Kevin Carr
"A shapeless and crudely made mess that looks and feels like what you might get from a bunch of kids screwing around with a camcorder at a family reunion (and considering the number of Wayans involved, that could actually be the case here)"
eFilmCritic.com
Peter Sobczynski
1/5
"This pastiche never manages to find an actual joke. We're left with a painfully convoluted non-plot trying to link together a series of lead-ins to never-realised punchlines."
Shadows on the Wall
Rich Cline
3/10
"Crude, offensive and amateurish, it exhibits all the wrong moves since the nimble bits are in the trailer."
