I hate the classic nerdy character protagonist , it's the "I can do literally everything" plus " I'm kinda clumsy and shy" played by an attractive actress/actor. I hate it

Why does every teenager in these movies want to go to Harvard, Yale, Stanford, or Duke? And how do they get in if they're average in literally every way? Just once, I'd like to see the protagonist go to a normal university, one they could realistically get into. They can't all be "gentlemen of Harvard" (I hope you read that in an Armie Hammer voice).

“Can’t count a 4 beat” Plays the Cello

‘Fuck your dream school I lied to get into my dream school help me’ is about the moral self awareness I expect from main characters in these kind of movies

Ok can we please talk about why in EVERY teen movie one of the main characters parents is ALWAYS dead???? LITERALLY. EVERY. SINGLE .TIME.

So we’re not even going to mention how selfish Sabrina’s character is for putting her best friend’s dream on the line for her own... Aight okay then

"does she tell her mom that her boyfriend's, like, 25?" yea, i can see a few problems with this. WHAT THE HECK NETFLIX

"He is called Julliard because he is incredibly overrated." Did a particular school do something to you?

Netflix needs to realize there’s more to a “gay character” than being sassy and dyeing your hair.

One girl does it all, smart, talented, and dad is an alumni still didn’t get accepted. One girl who barely does any studying but set up a kissing booth for strangers, well got into harvard. I just- 😤😔

excuse me her name is quinn ACKERMAN? aot doesn’t deserve this pain

I’m still mad that she still wore that she wore those clothes, I’ve seen so many smart girls with better looking clothes.

I’m sorry dancing takes emotion and passion but playing an instrument doesn’t?!

They did NOT just make Liza Koshy the obligatory ethnic best friend.

i just have an issue with the fact that everyone is acting like quinn can't multitask.. like you can be a dancer and still keep up your grades it's just something that you have to make time for.

‘everyone plays the cello’ no what? it isn’t that easy...

Why do all of these protagonists have to be such selfish and completely inconsiderate people but it works out conveniently

The most unbelievable part is that a dancer thinks “flossing” is an acceptable form of dance

As a dancer, this movie was just not it. There's a part where Jaz takes Quinn to see a group of disabled people dancing really good, and let me just say that this movie would've been way more interesting if they were the protagonists

That one girl: Jas isn't worried about grades because she wants to be a dancer. Me: If only that were how it works...

Why is no one talking about how Jake LOST his job because of Quinn and then it's literally never mentioned again?????

I’m so sick of the “mean popular gay” character 🙄🙄

"Honestly, I don't accept your apology. Baby, you're canceled." Pretty much every loser on Twitter.

The actor playing Isaiah, Keiyan Thomas, was on an Australian show called “Dance Academy.” He starts on the show during the second season and he also plays a dancer who’s really good and full of himself. Highly recommend it ☺️.

*How to be the protagonist in a Netflix movie:* •Nerdy •Goofy •B e a u t i f u l

These movies try to teach valuable lessons like “do what you’re passionate about” while also completely ignoring the fact that some people can be passionate about academics. Also the plot in these movies are just so bad.

If my best friend begged me to quit something that makes me happy and prevented me from getting into my dream school but got them into their dream school, i would drop them immediately. that's just messed up.

I love how apparently doing all the academic stuff she clearly cares a-lot about, the interviewer ask “ WhAt ArE pAsSiONate aBoUt”

Why does every main character in teen movies have to have a dead parent?!

"Everybody plays the cello" No, no they don't.

Will the "smart" girls EVER wear clothes that fit? I understand if they're dirt poor and raid thrift stores for their wardrobe, but come on-

"Fangs from Riverdale" gosh Alex has seen Riverdale so much that he knows every character on the show 😂

"You're cancelled. Deleted. Unsubscribed. Control, Alt, Delete." Still the best line of that movie.

why do teen movies always treat Harvard like it's a community college?

One thing that really annoyed me is the inconsistentcy with Jake's knee injury. During one of the training sessions he has with Quinn he knee hurts and he has to stop but later in the movie he is able to do a whole routine and is completely fine

“Control alt delete”? What this kid is working with an HP pavilion and nOT a mac?? What kind of dancer

the fact that Quinn sabotages Jasmine’s biggest chance at getting into her dream school just so Quinn can get into her own is disgusting.

one thing i do appreciate is that she actually is a realistic applicant for a big uni like duke, like she’s done a lot of stuff and she’s clever and tries to be an all-rounder, unlike SOME main characters trying to get into harvard with a stupid essay (if you know, you know [and i’m sorry for your loss])

*_"And just because your mom said so your gonna bail?"_* *100% yes, see you nerds later*

Loved the movie tho. Jordan Fisher is just an amazing actor/singer/dancer and I was really surprised that Liza acted quite well!

This movie is just a adult version of Disney dance movies. Edit: thanks for the likes 0-0 didn’t expect that lol 😂

I hate how she just so happens to magically be able to dance suddenly...That’s not how it works ...at all

I was would have at least liked the movie if they explored the other characters on Quinn's dance team. I feel like they had so much potential.

11:30 ha ha ha🤣

Wait a damn minute... you're telling me this whole time I didn't even need good grades or hard work to get into college? I can just learn TikTok dances and I'm set?!?!? What a waste!!

When will movies learn spilling liquid on a keyboard doesn't immediately make something explode.

The fact that you went straight from her discovering her rhythm working at a library to "getting the band back together" was a beautiful P&F reference and I appreciated it.

Quinn’s confused reaction to Isaiah kicking her out of the AV booth has got to be the most realistic part of this movie

A school as prestigious as Duke wouldn't care that much about the 'emotion' of dance team. They care that mommy or daddy can cut that check.

Did she even tell her mum that basically, the only thing the university was taking into account was that she danced? I mean, she would be way more supportive if she knew

Quinn: I'm an A student and volunteer and belong to lots of clubs. Interviewer: Same as all our applicants. Quinn: My father is an alum and donates to all the fundraising. Interviewer: You're in.

bruh why is everyone upset about that liza joke. it was literally sarcasm.

What's so weird is Liza honestly isn't a bad actress here. I actually laughed at her delivery and wished she'd been in a good movie

As a trained dancer, Julliard's team should have won. They had the talent and were an elite team. I am offended by this movie

Thanks alex for making this a little bit bearable

hold up. did she say her last name is ACKERMAN? *AOT theme starts playing *

The protagonist is a toxic friend, and a toxic person in general, risking people's jobs and dreams for her own personal deluded goals.

So no one gonna talk about how dirty the wardrobe people did Sabrina.

6:06 omfg the Kirbys epic yarn music :,)

“Come on, hurry up, I have a bio test to fail” don’t lie, you reminded to watch this again and laughed every time.

why in every Netflix movie there is ALWAYS a "blonde girl" who's life is perfect but she still complains?? In Tall Girl, Jodi spent the entire movie crying because of her height when she literally: Is pretty, is rich, good family life, and she could have done sports or modeling being that tall. And in Work It, Quinn has a freaking 4.0 Gpa, and literally still decides that she has to create a dance team to get into Duke. *why tf does every netflix chrarater get into an ivy-league school that easily, 🙄* ( Has anyone noticed these movies, always have predictable sequels, it's actually annoying. 😑)

“teen dance movie” ... not a single one of them is a teen.

I love how he played music from Kirby's Epic Yarn title theme and flower garden, so NOSTALGIC!!!!

Do these writers not realize that most of the students that go to good and/or prestigious colleges have a 5.0 gpa??? Like dude you have to have a 4.0 gpa AT LEAST to even be considered.

Of course her name is Quinn. Every nerdy blonde girl who's actually secretly cool has to be named Quinn.

Ok, one thing that’s not THAT big a deal but still pisses me off is the inaccuracy of the ending. As a dancer, so much work goes in to training and so much time goes into perfecting as much as you can your technique and rhythm and attitude, yet in this movie the main character just gets to qualify for a massive competition, gets to almost crush her friend’s dreams that’s she’s worked SO hard for, gets to pull out some amazing, well known choreographer, just because she lied to a college official and FEELS LIKE IT??? It just irritates me, bc that doesn’t seem fair to the other kids who have given up so much for dance.

6:07-6:14 I just realized you played that music to avoid copyright, seriously I thought it matched the dance moves pretty well

That cello scene probs took them forever to get cuz she’s playing one note. Wow 🙄

I cant help but like this movie cause jordon Fisher looks directly into the camera and winks

I feel like the movie was kind of rushed, it probably could've been better if they had gone a little slower. I only watched it cause I love Sabrina Carpenter

Thank you for mentioning the fact that Quinn being in the dance team is what’s going to get her into her dream school. Yes, the most unique thing that an applicant can do 🤡

"My Gynecologist is a Dukey" is one of the best lines I have ever heard. 🤣 Also, this is so very "Bring it on", or "Stomp", or "Pitch Perfect".

Hilary Duff WALKED in A Cinderella Story so movies like this can RUN, but they're RUNNING in the wrong direction.

"Everybody plays the cello".. lol no. Everybody played the violin. No kid wanted to play that giant thing ps... its a joke guys

I thought this video title was your hot take on society "Work. It is pretty dumb"

Lady: Let me stop your right there *Add plays Me: Oh haha

There is a clear sense of realism: Student: I've worked my ass off my entire life. College: I dont care, so did everyone else and they did it better. Edit: 24 hours, half a thousand likes. sad how relatable this really is.

*How to create a basic teen Netflix movie in 7 easy Steps* 1. _Get a Girl/Guy who’s “quirky” yet has untapped potential_ (Most likely always Caucasian) 2. _Get a One dimensional more interesting friend to tag-a-long and exist solely for the main characters dilemma dispute reason_ ( Most Likely always a Black/“Minority” or a member of the LGBTQ community or if their trying to kill two birds one stones they’ll intermingle them 3. _Have a Screenplay filled with dialogue that is tedious and boring or has _*_Slang_*_ not used anymore_ 4. _Have a basic Mean Girls Rachel McAdams wannabe bully the protagonist_ 5. _Main Girl/Guy has awakening after unnecessary conflict_ 6. _Movie ends with some message that was not clearly fleshed out and characters life continues_ 7. _You realize the time you’ve wasted watching garbage, so you drink bleach and go to sleep wondering when will they stop making these type movies, and create something with substance._

As someone who has done lighting design/programming/running the lightboard for a few years.....this is why you have bottles with lids for your drinks when in the light or sound booth!

Dude the technicality was the best

"This is her best friend Jas played by some nobody has ever heard about" Me: OOF

College counselor: “I mean dance team? That takes emotion, power, grit...” Me, a musician: “And playing the cello doesn’t?????????????”

Thanks for the giggles☺️

Can we talk about how accurate the acting of the mom was

“Hello best friend. I would like you to jeopardize, possibly sacrifice your dreams and futures so I can achieve my own. Thank you for being on the right side of history”

This is wrong, they went to football games AT DUKE?!? BUT NOT THE BASKETBALL GAMES?!? DID THEY EVEN RESEARCH BEFORE WRITING THAT??

The acting is so calming...no yelling like youtube pranksters or making dated jokes...i might watch this movie but not for the plot lol

Quinn saying "which part of history do you want to be on" is an implied ultimatum that would mean their friendship would suffer if she didn't abandon her team to go with Quinn which is emotional abuse and a huge red flag.

The most annoying thing in this movie is how her entire team practices in JEANS!!! I used to dance and you would be told to change or be sent home because they limit your mobility.

This movie by no means was the best but I think we can ALL agree this is better than the Kissing Booth 👁️👄👁️

The bit with Jazz's crush is actually funny

I'm glad that I watch your reviews of these shows/movies because it helps me know which movies/shows I can avoid to watch and which is worth the watch.

Ok but the way we are just ignoring the fact that Jordan's character is a whole ass ADULT?! And Sabrina's character is most definitely NOT?!

I really wish Netflix would just find someone, anyone, who’s been in school at some point in time in their life. Because they obviously do not understand how schools work. No everyone does not play the goddamn cello! Now if she had said clarinet, sure. Everyone plays the clarinet. But no one plays the cello. No one! Wait wait wait. So this man NO ONE CAN FIND has social media and a public dance studio where he gives dance lessons? Are Netflix writers even humans? One girl quits and the entire troop is gone? Why? Why wouldn’t they have just fulfill their obligation to be in the tournament without her? I mean it’s not like she was their most important dancer in fact she COULDN’T dance. I swear to God the writers of Netflix are not human. They don’t know what being a human is. None of this movie makes any sense because it wasn’t written by humans. (1.2k likes??? Wow!!!! Thanks everyone!!!!)

The “Ooooooooooooooooooo” got me so bad

love the random Kirby theme song in the middle xD

“But everyone calls him Juilliard I assume because he’s incredibly overrated” IM WHEEZING!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Funny thing is, Liza did a lot of improv in this movie. She said it in a lot of the interviews, they allowed her to do her own thing. That's why her character is so great 😂 Probably my most famous comment till date wow

GOSHHHH i can’t look at jordan fisher the same after watching Until Dawn. It’s like that scene replays non stop in my head

“And jas has a crush on fangs from river dale” Yep lol
