Amazon.co.uk Review
Dare you to keep your feet still while watching iHow She Move/i, a rip-roaring salute to Jamaican-influenced step-dancing with an infectious backbeat. The film will appeal to fans of other dance tributes like Stomp the Yard but also to fans of iHigh School Musical, Bring It On/i and other teen let's-put-on-a-show empowerment films. The story is set in Toronto's thriving Caribbean-immigrant community, though there are nods to American 'hoods as well. While the drama is a bit short on plot, there's no shortage of action or star power. The film's lead, the dynamic Rutina Wesley, plays Raya Green, an honors student whose life is shattered by the death of her sister, and by her unwilling return from her private school to her urban neighborhood. But young Raya's spirit is indomitable, as shows the tough neighborhood boys she's every bit a dance force to be reckoned with as they are. Her dancing gives this film its sweet patina of girl power on top of its fabulous choreographed moves. Also don't miss the great soundtrack, featuring Missy Elliott and Busta Rhymes. How she move? Pretty darn great. --iA.T. Hurley/i

Refreshing look at an old dance off theme
Really refreshing dance movie. Not like the stereo typical ones we keep getting churned out. Great dancing, and I like the story coming from the angle of Jamaican immigrants to Canada... how often you gonna see a story from this angle. Good acting, especially from the two leading girls.

If there was a no star option, I'd take it
I'm not going to spend too much time writing a review for this film because it really doesn't deserve my time or effort. There is no redeeming feature in this fim - the story is completely uninspired (girl wants to make money to return to private school so decides to join a street-dancing gang) the acting bog-standard and unconvincing, the script a joke and the actual dancing - what I really wanted to see this film for - was utter rubbish. You aren't even pleased when the girl gets the boy because you don't care about either character or even want them to get togther. Theres just nothing more I can say - avoid like the plague. Utter rubbish, waste of my life, and this is from someone who loves dance film. Urgh!
