CheerupSilver Very Cool!!!
Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever
AshUnow This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
Erica Derrick By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
phoebemann I enjoyed the first 3 seasons but then it went downhill
caspian1978 Lifetime has made millions showcasing women as victims. Whether it be one of their many awful depictions of a female character who falls in love with a "man" that turns into a serial killer, Dance Moms gives Lifetime another chance to entertain their all female audience with a cast of awful women they can look down at. The star of this disgrace is a large wilder beast. She yells at a group of underage girls to be perfect. I find it ironic that this fat woman is telling skinny girls how to dance. These girls aim for perfection but end up becoming jaded as they cry and fall apart when they fall short and lose a competition. On the sidelines stand their out of shape, unattractive and talent- less mothers who agree with the abuse. Sometimes these failed parents complain as they grand stand for being somehow more moral than the rest. The 200+ pound dinosaur is justified for her actions when she wins the girls countless competitions that most people have never heard of. Do a google search and you will see hundreds of competitions (dance) in this saturated market that makes millions of dollars from young girls and their idiot mothers. This is not an example of Whiplash where students are being pushed to perfection for the sake of Art. This is nothing more than a Train wreck of a spectacle. These girls are exploited to be ornaments (wearing very little clothing and wearing enough makeup to make them look like adults....parents - please questions this) for an industry where vanity, greed, envy and pride are rewarded with empty trophies. What female audience would not feel empowered after watching this spectacle? Good job Lifetime, you did it again.
dipark-904 Abby Miller made great routines use the girls best talents and skills I didn't like her attitude but... she knew what kind of dancing n techniques needed for competition, this new instructor is an emotional nut and her routines suck! I used to dance myself so I love watching the girls grow and develop. Abby is so unfair to Chloe and is an excellent and beautiful dancer, I enjoy watching her, as I enjoy watching Nia do hip-hop.I believe the Super praise over Matty in front of the other girls makes the other girls feel bad, the other girl's deserve the same chances. I especially like Jill she's a wonderful mother and person, a smart benefit on the show, child, (☆which is another great dancer I enjoy watching does a wonderful job!) and to the mothers. The show is great, it doesn't need Abby being ugly to make it better, if anything it makes people not want to watch it.
sylviaz-1 If you enjoy great choreography and great dancers, this show is very entertaining. The show is not for people who want to see nice nice nice... Abbey can be very harsh in her way of handling both the moms and the kids and does not like to be told any opinions other than those that seam to match her own point of view. The moms can get out of hand at times as well. The best part of the show is watching the kids dance. There is a lot of unnecessary yelling through out the program, but that's Abbeys style, she wants perfection all of the time and wont settle for less. Sadly, there can only be one winner so even if her kids end up in first and second, the kid who comes in second didn't do a good enough job. Abbey wants her kids to be stars, she wants them to excel and maybe that's the only way she has ever tried to achieve that goal. For the kids, they are under constant pressure and stress so many people think its over the top. I think much of the audience would enjoy seeing the kids more, the dancing more and the interactions between Abbey and the kids during training. Abbey seams to have more going on this year when the cameras aren't rolling. She seams to get upset easier and angry easier. I hope that she will read her reviews and realize her audience respects what she has done with the kids and would like to see more of the kids, the dancing and their interactions, more than the BS with the moms. I would rate this higher, but the yelling and disrespect lowered my score
