* FridgeSadness: As sweet as Jen and Ken's reunion is, Jen doesn't actually live there; she's only there for the summer, and there's no indication that she's graduated. The two will probably have to part for a while when summer ends and Jen goes back to her hometown for school.

* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot: While wanting to win the dance competition [[InformedWrongness isn't as wrong]] as the movie would have us believe, the story would benefit a lot more from explaining exactly ''why'' it's so important that Danny and Shotsy deem it "everything" to them.

* SoBadItsGood: It's considered by many to be ''Film/TheRoom'' of dance movies. It could also be seen as this generation's ''Film/FromJustinToKelly''. It even receives the "Good Bad" verdict from ''Good Bad or Bad Bad'' reviewers.

* DesignatedVillain: Shotsy; unlike Danny, she doesn't really do anything villainous, encourages Ken to get back with Jen despite liking him, and even [[spoiler:deems them deserving to win the competition despite being their competitor]]. Her only real crime is [[AmbitionIsEvil wanting to win the competition]] [[InformedWrongness really bad]].

* DesignatedHero: The fact Ken is outraged at ''Jen'' rather than her father for her being set up with Danny cements him as a FetishizedAbuser for many, yet the film still paints him as an emotionally troubled hero and he still gets her back in the end.
