| Dance Flick (2009) | "
The best Wayans movie since the first Scary Movie. The Wayans' are in top form taking the benchmarks of dance movies to an extreme degree. They can't keep it up, but it remains a solid satire with more to say than many quickie knock-offs." Can Magazine Posted May 23, 2009 |

I did not like The Da Vinci Code, but only because it was completely faithful to the book which I didn't like. As such, I never read Angels & Demons, but I can tell it's faithful too because it's exactly the same thing." Can Magazine Posted May 22, 2009 |

He's not reinventing the genre, but he doesn't have to. He already did that once, and now he's just doing what he's good at. His era of in your face outrageousness didn't last long enough as far as I'm concerned." Can Magazine Posted May 22, 2009 |
