DVD Review-How She Move
Not surprisingly, I had a huge pile of packages waiting for me when I got home from Disney, including the DVD “How She Move“. Set in Toronto’s Jamaican community, this movie stars Rutina Wesley as Raya, who has to leave private school and return to her neighborhood after the death of her sister. As she struggles for acceptance from her sister’s friends and works to earn a scholarship to pay for private school tuition, she finds herself drawn into the world of competitive Step Dancing.
If you aren’t familiar with Step, it’s very popular in colleges, especially among African-American fraternities. The scenes that show Raya learning the dance moves so she can join a crew preparing for an International competition are fierce and fun. The soundtrack features Missy Elliott and Busta Rhymes and will get you moving as you watch. While this movie doesn’t have much in the way of plot, the dance sequences are electrifying and you’ll find yourself cheering during the big competition finale. You can get both the movie and the soundtrack on Amazon.com.
Sounds like a fun movie. Anything with dancing in I like
