Honey....I lost the plot.

Rating: 1/10 (20 July 2005)

An incredibly awful hip-hop themed dance movie with as many clichÃ©s as a daily soap-opera. Alba plays the lead role of Honey Daniels, a would-be hip-hop dancer, who suddenly changes career direction to become an in-demand hip-hop video choreographer. This is where the movie fails from the very start. We are led to believe Honey's fortune is in dance, not a behind the scenes role. Thus , her ambition and drive is negated by the backtracking nature of the script which was obviously written by marketing executives wanting to capture the hip-hop zeitgeist. Alba is also problematic as Honey. This girl is not ghetto enough it seems, and she comes across as too sickly sweet to be a dancer/choreographer of any magnitude. With Alba, you feel you are watching parts Halle Berry would have thrown away in the bin. Worse still, Missy Elliot makes an embarrassing cameo that should add some much needed credibility points to her resume. Honey...I lost the plot would be a better description of this awful movie.
