It's equal parts 'Flashdance,' 'Burlesque' and 'Lambada', all parts ludicrous - but we aren't here for the story any more than we watch Bela Tarr for the salsa numbers.

Guy Lodge, Time Out

There's too much color and energy and frenzy in this movie to discount it entirely, but it has a disconcerting tendency to undercut its best notions with some singularly awful moves.

Alonso Duralde, TheWrap
Rotten

With the most wooden leads of the series to date - an MMA fighter and a "So You Think You Can Dance" alum - the drama between the dancing has never felt more interminable.

"Step Up: You've Seen All This Before" would be more accurate, but Summit Entertainment's marketing department knows that wouldn't help sell tickets.

Sean O'Connell, Washington Post
Rotten

Delivers plenty of spectacular fancy footwork in what is otherwise a flat-footed fantasy.
