Leave your thoughts about Work It.
| Chicago Sun-TimesRichard RoeperThere’s little in the way of originality in Work It, but there’s a fresh, upbeat, infectious vibe to the silliness, thanks in large part to the talented and likable cast of young actors. |
| Vanity FairRichard LawsonOnly 92 minutes long, Work It could use more space to move around in: to let these performers really strut their stuff, and to allow the movie to develop a bit more idiosyncratic texture. As is, Work It is an agreeable enough pastiche, clearly aware of its influences and not trying to pretend that it’s come up with these steps all on its own. |
| IndieWireKate ErblandThe expectations of the genre provide a framework for Work It that both delights (so many dancing montages! all of them fun!) and confounds (a chemistry-less romance). When it dares to break those boxes, however, things get miles more interesting. |
| The New York TimesNatalia WinkelmanWork It is no “Step Up,” but its best sequences involve Jake and Quinn, who share a chemistry in motion that, for a beat or two, conjures the genre’s magic. |
| The GuardianBenjamin LeeWork It is a fun, mostly entertaining and easily digestible concoction that does everything you expect but well enough for its lack of ingenuity not to matter. |
| RogerEbert.comMonica CastilloThis movie promises dancing, and it delivers. |
| Movie NationRoger Moore“Ugly Dolls” screenwriter Alison Peck finds her niche with this picture, throwing just enough plot wrinkles and smart-ass banter into the mix to make the formula — if not exactly fresh — at least fresh-adjacent. |
| VarietyLisa KennedyFew of the lessons and triumphs of Work It will surprise, and some of the missed opportunities disappoint. |
| Screen RantMolly FreemanNetflix's Work It is bogged down by its trite and wholly unoriginal underdog story, but its charismatic young leads help the movie limp to the end. |
| User ReviewAjaykalarikkalIt such an entertaining movie with all the humour and mainly dance ,the story is driven by dance and romance is happening from the dance which is one of the authentic thing in the movie ,the romantic couple is so beautiful and the dance team and the Quinn-Jass friendship is so lovely . |
