By the time the climactic, Rihanna-scored musical number arrives, your attention will have long since waltzed off.

AV Club

On Pointe gets too ambitious, and tries to promote a message of teamwork to go with its attempt at iconoclasm. Here, the partnership becomes more important than the players, which throws the whole thing off balance.

Rated: C+

The best part of "Center Stage: On Pointe" are the 30-odd seconds, about 20 minutes in, when the characters all watch "Center Stage."

The return of some characters from the original gives it some charm, while the combination of ballet with contemporary dance also makes for some creative choreography.

Rated: 3/5

the dancing isn't as good as the first, but the story is better than the 2nd. It worked really well for me.

Horrible compared to the first movie and most of the dancers had no technique at all

The third movie in this franchise keeps things fresh by moving the students to an off site campus of the ABA and introducing a competition for entry to the academy at the end of their training period. A few familiar faces return from the first two movies so we get to catch up with some of our favorite characters.

For a dance movie, the lead dancer was terrible! Very boring movie overall.
