this movie takes a while to get going, but once it does, it's at turns touching, sweet, funny, and fun. "Feel the Beat" works especially well as a movie that parents can enjoy with kids
Sassier humour would have added some bite, but the film has some bland charm as it timidly sidesteps anything sharp-edged or honest. At least there's a positive message buried under the schmaltz
a predictable dramedy; The kids' enthusiasm as an ensemble suggests a funnier, warmer movie, a cute clone of "School of Rock"; Their joy is enough to thaw April's iciness, but it can't save the slight movie that surrounds them
"Feel The Beat" is so much more than just another dance movie. It is about love, hope, redemption -- and it is filled with a whole lot of heart. It is a bit predictable, but that doesn't ruin the story that it tells
