Critics consensus

“With a hopelessly hokey plot and unintentionally hilarious dialogue, Battle of the Year is flimsy even by the standards of the dance movie genre.”

Frank Scheck

RTThe Hollywood ReporterJan 27, 2019

The young dancers' undeniable skill and athleticism is squandered in this formulaic, overly familiar dance movie.

Dismal, clich-ridden stuff.

RTAustin ChronicleSep 27, 2013

In particular, as mentioned, the dance sequences are a mess, which is the kiss of death for a film in this genre.

RTThe MacGuffinJul 23, 2020

Instead of allowing his film to be uplifted by dance, Lee burdens it with a cringe-worthy dramatic narrative.
