YMMV / Dance Flick

• Big-Lipped Alligator Moment: Megan emerges from a car, caked in Black Face and talking in ebonics.
• Ensemble Dark Horse: David Alan Grier’s turn as the morbidly obese gang lord Sugar Bear was considered a highlight of the movie, thanks to Grier’s hammy performance and the spectacle of his dancing in the final battle.
• FunnyMoments:
  • Sugar Bear is an impossibly obese mountain of a man who is still able to move around like a much smaller man, and he puts it to good use during the final battle when he dances to "Big Things Poppin'". His moves are already funny enough, but the showstopper is when he falls onto the ground and leaves gigantic craters in the floor!
  • When we first meet him, Sugar Bear is reclining in a gigantic hospital bed, greedily laughing like Jabba the Hutt himself, but he asks where the third Musketeer of the group is. When told he’s incapacitated, Sugar Bear clarifies he was asking for his chocolate bar and reprimands them for smarting off to him. He says he wants his piece of the pie, and literally gets a piece of pumpkin pie, only to complain it’s not sugar-coated. He snaps his fingers and one of his goons immediately pours a ton of sugar on it.
  • The boys get summoned to Sugar Bear’s lair again, and they know This Is Gonna Suck since they don’t have the money they owe him yet. Sure enough, there’s a brutal cut to Sugar Bear incredulously roaring, "you ain’t got my shit yet?!?"
  • Sugar Bear performs a parody of "You're Gonna Love Me", only its "You're Gonna Feed Me", and he sings about how he is unapologetically fat and gluttonous, and strongly implies he’s going to force the boys to provide his meals in a way to pay off their debt. Notably, even Sugar Bear’s goons grow more afraid as their boss’s performance goes on, seemingly afraid of the prospect of having to directly feed him. They even run away at the end of the song!
  • When Sugar Bear arrives at the dance battle, the camera shows the colossal drooping bottom of his belly as he waffles in well before his face even comes into focus. He says he’s here for his bread, chips, and cheese, and when he’s given a sandwich, he once again clarifies he’s here for his money. When the rival leader tells “fat boy” to pull up, Sugar Bear brushes his teammates aside, ready to deal with this personally.
