Have you ever seen a good movie made from a really poor script and conventional plot? Honey-from-the block is not a well-written movie, but I enjoyed every minute of it. (Think thoughts of Jennifer Lopez\u2019 story growing up in the Bronx \u2013 even to the choice\u00a0of Castle Hill Avenue for a dance studio \u2026 which is not\u00a0even close to Hunt\u2019s Point or the South Bronx!)<\/font><\/p>\n It\u2019s Save the Last Dance,<\/strong> and a little Dirty Dancing<\/strong> rolled into one. Great\u00a0moves by Jessica Alba and the kids she teaches at the Center in Hunt\u2019s Point (South Bronx) as she strives to maintain her principles and dignity when she gets involved in the music video business. A little romance, cultural diversity and awesome dancing. <\/font><\/p>\n This is a nice film that addresses poverty, drugs, cast off children, working parents, family, friends,\u00a0and community. Some parents won\u2019t get the urban milieu or appreciate the dancing, but if they would give it a chance\u2026 A movie with lots of heart. <\/font><\/p>\n And only 90 minutes long!!!!<\/font><\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Have you ever seen a good movie made from a really poor script and conventional plot?
