Radheyan Simonpillai NOW Toronto It would have been so easy to get this movie right. The vibrant culture, pulsating energy and talented dancers busting up the floor are all here. All Cannon had to do was let us enjoy them. Rated: 1/5 Sep 13, 2016 Full Review Andrew Barker Variety Hysterical, feverish, incredibly watchable ... Sep 13, 2016 Full Review Wendy Ide Screen International Multi-hyphenate artist Nick Cannon adds another skill to his resume with his directorial debut. Sep 12, 2016 Full Review Brian Costello Common Sense Media Gratuitous sex, violence mar glimpse at dancehall culture. Rated: 2/5 Nov 8, 2017 Full Review Sarah Marrs Lainey Gossip ... presented in such a sloppy fashion as to be rendered nearly incoherent, and the movie itself is so clearly Cannon's love letter to himself that it's impossible to take this seriously as an actual movie.
