Dancing is the prime thing of the film, not much of a plot though.
While watching the film its feel like someone amateur neighborhood kids is trying to make a movie as an experiment or a summer project. I will not say that the acting was terrible but the thing is nothing about this movie was professional- not the acting or the camera work. And the story was too predictable without any twist or turns, also there was no story build up at all. Things were happening as script writer wants no correlation between the scenes.
One thing happened a lot in film and it was dancing and the sad part of it was most of the dancing was out of context. Sadly I was not impressed by the dancing either.
To Sum It Up : Not Recommended.

And I'm not talking about you as a viewer, but the characters in this. It's a movie about dancing. I think it's a safe bet, that plenty of people will take you up on that dare. Pretty much everybody to tell the truth. But I deter and watching this you know what you get yourself into. Obviously the character in this, is way over her head, in the story that is.
There is not much of a story here, maybe you saw the first Honey movie with Jessica Alba, who had a bit more charisma than the main actress in this one. But it's not all down to charisma. It's down to your love of watching people dance. Does that float your boat? Than by all means watch it. If not, just don't and save yourself some time

It's a cheap replica of Step Up. It doesn't make you feel the energy of dancing, as it should be doing. Movies that involve dancing have to keep the audience engaged all the time and not let them fall into boredom, as this one is doing. And because you not only have to deal with dance, you also have music, which is another key that this movie didn't got it right. People should vibrate and resonate with the emotions shared through music and dancing, but this one just keeps selling us "corny" talks. What a shame.

This film tells the story of a young woman who is forced to drop out of school because of financial problem. She continues to pursue her passion, and organises a one night only hip hop version of Romeo and Juliet in the local theatre.
"Honey 3: Dare to Dance" surprises me a lot, because it doesn't follow the typical formula of the characters taking part in a major dance competition. Rivalry takes place between the two leading ladies, but there is little rivalry between groups. Indeed the usual rivalry takes a back seat here, and people actually cooperate, which is a refreshing change. It is also interesting to see a hip hop Shakespearean play. I like this film because it breaks away from the usual formula.

This has to be the worst movie I have ever watched in terms of story-line and casting. It infuriated me so much that I just had to write this review whereas I have never seen the need of doing one before.
The story-line is such a cliché! What was unique apart from the Romeo and Juliet drift?? What dance moves were different whereas this is a movie released in 2017? All the step-up movies beat this movie hands down.
Secondly, I know this will make me sound biased but how is the movie based in Africa and the main cast is full of Americans? Never have I ever heard of Americans studying in Africa in all those numbers, maybe just one-off cases of student exchange programs but not an entire 30-squad dance crew.
Africa is full of amazing dancers and our African music is just as amazing. This would have been the movie's selling and unique point. Incorporating African music and dances is what would have made this dance movie different from the rest.
Next time you shoot and produce a movie in Africa, duly note that there is mad talent here and we want our stories told as a representation of who we are and not false representation of us being the same as Westerners.
I'm out. Stay Woke!

This movie is what all dance movies should be about. It's filled with great music and choreography. Acting isn't the top but for it's low budget movie is nicely done. Plot is pretty exciting and costumes... wow, plus this South African vibes makes it unique. I recommend it for anyone who is or have been into dancing.
This movie was made in Cape Town. There is not one South African accent in the whole movie. Even the street thugs speak with an American accent.
Let's first have a look at the heritage of the movie. Honey (The original movie with Jessica Alba) is truthfully trying to portrait a subculture within all its beauty as well as flaws. The entire cast so genuinely human, driven forward by all the very well curated dance sessions. The other heritage of the Honey 3 script is Julia & Romeo, a conflicted deep lovestory by Shakespeare everyone knows. I think the heritage is the only thing carrying this hollow skeleton of a movie called Honey 3. The cast ist very unfortunately choosen, music selection (base of every good dance movie) couldn't be any worse regarding diversity as well as complexity and the storyline - well there pretty much is none. It's truly a waste of time, please spare your self some awfully bad invested minutes and do not watch this movie. This is the first movie description I've ever written, just because I really couldn't believe how someone has a vision of producing a movie and then comes up with this?! 🦀
