Here's my suggestion for people who have concluded that this movie is morally corrupt. Watch the movie and skip the dance routines if you have to. Then answer these 2 questions to see if you really understood the point of the movie.
1.At the climax of the movie and the end of the dance contest routine Amy stops dancing, breaks down in tears, and runs off the stage. What did she realize that made her react this way?
2. At the conclusion of the movie Amy talks with her mother, walks outside, and joins her African friends in a game of jump rope. What did she realize about her dancing adventure that made her do this?
Exactly right. This movie is a big slap in the face to the hip hop culture.Many people commenting on this film have not watched it or have a clue what it is about.
What do y’all expect when these kids see the same thing during superbowl half time show. That is what cuties was all about. How our kids are subjected to this hip hop culture everyday and they want to emulate that and “fit in” with the cool kids. There was nothing wrong with the movie itself, it was a true depiction of what our youth are exposed to every day and it being normal and kids want to be like britany speers, miley cyrus, madonna etc. What is sickening is how this movie was marketed
