Movie Reviews of Dancehall Queen
Movie Review: Real good movie
Summary: 5 Stars
I came across this movie through one of my book clubs that I am into; I bought the movie and was hooked; what I liked so much about it was that this woman who probably some would think is "over the hill" with a teenage daughter to boot, decides to go out for the title of Dance Hall Queen against this younger model who thought she couldn't get whipped at her own game; but as time go on, and sistergirl gets popular, she realizes that she had an adversary far more stronger than her and tries to let out about her occupation as a street vendor; she gets a dope dealer to back her customes; another who wanted her turf, but all is well that ends well in the end; very good movie. another good story in female empowerment;Movie Review: It's a dancehall ting!!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
Wow, dancehall Queen is not just one of the best jamaican films i ever saw, but one the best ever. I am a Jamaican, so i could relate to the things in this movie. The acting was great and so was the music. It is about a strong Jamaican woman, who tries to make ends meet by becoming a dancer. She is also very loud,she's doesn't let any man disrespects her and if you "Come too close you might get burn". There is a lot of obstacles in her way to overcome. I ain't saying no more, bottom line this is a really good dancehall film. "She's a dancehall queen for life,got her explode like dynamite"!!!!!Movie Review: Really Really Good.

What a fun movie. A great message about a womans strength. Terrific music and after seeing it I feel like a took a little trip to a yardy neighborhood in Jamaica. If you aren't used to hearing the language,( alot of heavily accented slang) it might be a little hard to understand, but keep trying, it's worth it. I love the actress that plays the older daughter, she looks like Dee from whats happenin'. The movie has a really scary villian, too. Watch this film and add a little bit of flava to your life.Movie Review: Modern Jamaican Cinderella story!

I love Dancehall Queen! I lost my first copy (VHS) so I replaced it with a new copy in DVD. I never get tired of watching this movie and I consider it a Jamaican movie classic right up there with Harder They Come, Rockers and Smile Orange. It is a nice twist on the traditional rags-to-riches story. Although her character's morals are somewhat questionable (she practically "sells" her daughter to a high-paying local don), you can't help but root for the protagonist Marcia!Movie Review: Not a likkle but MASSIVE FUN
Summary: 5 Stars
This movie was so much fun. It contained several themes like the loss of innocence, the psychological effects from bullying, and the escape from oppressive spritis. What was must amusing to me was watching the main character transform herself from a struggling street vendor to a queen to better herself and her children's lives, momentarily. The music is great, the cameos by reggae artists are great, and the evil character with the red top... oh I just wanted to mash 'em.
