Make Your Move (2013) Reviews
I loved it!
This film tells the story of two dancers who dance their way to their dreams despite the adverse circumstances around them. I have not heard about this film before watching it, but I was blown away by the whole experience. First, I was impressed by the diversity of the cast. Asians have always been underrepresented in American films, and "Make Your Move" gives the scene a refreshing change. The dance scenes are consistently impressive, energetic and vibrant, delivering a wow factor like no other dance film I have watched. The two leading characters are charming and beautiful. They do look like a couple! BoA is really beautiful, and she can really dance. "Make Your Move"well consolidate her superstar status in Asia, and hopefully break her into the Western market.
Could be better but satisfied.
Before watching this movie, I expected nothing but dances, it did not disappoint me. We all know what BoA and Derek Dough can do. It makes you wonder what chemistry an Asian pop star can make with a ballroom dancing master. This movie has given modern dances a new definition. It is not an era with just hip hop dances anymore. It shows you tap dances and dances with drums(Cobu) could be the next "hit thing" as well. Let's be frank though, the story is weak, like I expected. Characters have minimal interactions, I almost couldn't feel the relationship between them. If you are looking for a movie with a well organized flow of story line, sorry you can probably skip this title. It really depends on which perspective you use to view a movie, to decide whether or not it's worth your time. I watched this movie entirely for the chronography, and of course, BoA and Derek Dough. If that's something you are looking for as well? Go for it.
Cheesy story, not really worth watching unless really bored
I am rather disappointed. I knew before watching that it's going to be a cheesy romeo and juliet plot but i expected there to be at least some sparkle. Unfortunately... The movie is made up of loads of indoor scenes which are not NY at all, plus couple aerial views of the bridges and a shot where Derek in the Borough Hall/Court Street area. Okay, the dance moves were fun and cool from time to time but not new or brilliant, with the production team and actors that the movie had, I expected much more. Derek Hough and BoA are both cute, but no they cannot act. They just do not have that sense of presence, at least not in this movie. BoA obviously is not a native English speaker, which fits her role, but she tries too hard to be effortless and smooth, and that makes her lines mono-toned. U-know's guest appearance totally disappointed me as well, that act could never be a headline in any club and definitely not up to standards of a dance movie. In real life, I doubt any club owner would fly such dancer all the way from Korea. That suit vest thing showing his chubby arms are making the scene even worse. Last but not the least, that pony-tail guy totally reminded me of Maria in the film "Din Tao：Leader of the Parade"... I'm not giving the movie a one -star just because it was fun running into the crew in W Hotel two years ago...
An amazing movie about dancing, passion and love.
Actually, I don't quite get why people leave so many negative feedback regarding this amazing movie. "Make Your Move" is one of the best movies about dancing and expressing the feelings through the moves, about passion, hard work and, of course, love. Pure love, which comes with lots of struggle and problems and which, on the other hand, makes people believe in themselves, makes them do things that they even could not have imagined of being possible to do. Romeo-Juliet-like story is really fascinating, and in the movie we can see a completely different, new side of it, which we have never seen before; the storyline is really wonderful - it kept me sitting on the edge of my seat, because there were so many cliffhangers I really enjoyed. To say more, I was really amazed by the incredible choreography, the soundtracks were fabulous as well, and I absolutely love the cast and the crew which did a great job - so many talented people in one movie, isn't it startling? I wish I could erase my own memory and watch this movie again and enjoy it in its whole like I did when I watched it for the first time. One of my favorite movies for sure, and I'm quite picky at this point. "Make Your Move" is an amazing movie about dancing, passion, love and so much more - I will never regret the day I made the decision to watch it.
Fantastic romantic dancing love story. Great entertainment. Derek Hough is phenomenal!
This movie really had great pacing. It was in constant motion. The dance club scenes were amazing as was all the choreography. Both brothers turned in great acting performances. I thought Derek Hough as Donny was not only a strong dancer, immensely talented but a handsome romantic lead. I believed the love story between Donny and Aya. She was charming. The multi cultural cast was interesting and the tapping especially was a treat. The chemistry between Donny and Aya is hot. Their 2 romantic dance scenes sizzled. I've never seen a man dance out of his shirt to reveal a chiseled body. It was very sexy and viral, how he moved with such passion and grace. I liked it so much I saw it twice. I highly recommend it.
