Bring It On: Cheer or Die

The seventh film installment of the Bring It On franchise and the first entry with horror elements. Pretty and cute girls with weak performances, mainly because they didn't have better materials to work with. Made-for-television film budget script, direction and cringe dialogues. Except for a few funny dialogues there wasn't much of comedy in this film.

I watched the first Bring it On way back and i think i watched just one of the sequels (the one with Hayden Panettiere). Its not a franchise i am ultra fond of but i find the ones i watched entertaining for teen movies.

After many direct to video sequels, they tried something new with the concept and why not. Could be fun.

The issue is altought the story is fine, the location as well, and the kills are decent in numbers, they are just not memorable AT ALL. The movie is almost bloodless, there is not much tension, i just didn't cared much for the characters either. And the concept of "cheer or die" is barely used.

Ultimately you end up with a very simple by the book cheap slasher movie that you will watch once and be like "meh... it passed time".

I've been in a slasher movie kind of mood as of late. I watched New Year's Evil the night before last and To All a Good Night shortly before that. I decided to pay a visit to the Redbox because I noticed that two out of the three locations that my town had were removed without warning. Much to my surprise I saw that they had Cheer or Die.... because I heard that it was supposed to air on the SyFy Channel around Halloween. This movie is pretty much a bloodless affair and is so tame.... that with some tinkering.... this could've easily obtained a PG rating and premiered on Disney+. The movie contains almost a dozen death scenes.... none of which are particular memorable.... but I did find it odd that the killer brought a set of throwing knives to fling occasionally. This had the potential to be a decent time waster had they added gallons of blood and some creativity.... but this is barely a horror film as it stands.

Terrible movie, acting is dreadful, storyline is awful the film from start to finish is a complete waste of time, disaster movie 2008 is rated a 1.9 and it is legit a better movie than this the rating I give is very kind for how bad this is.

If you want to watch a good horror movie do a google search or jump into here and look into it more I just clicked on not thinking more so for my wife and I honestly complained all the way through hahah there is a part from someone who is acting deaf in the movie and he is probably the best actor out of all of them but yeah just don't watch this unless you want to be disappointed.

I'm hoping that this is the marker that rebooting the franchise to the level of theatrical release is around the corner. Bring It On has fallen far from its initial 2000's installation but most of the sequels have had some campy aspect to offer in terms of entertainment but this, oh boy, is by far the worst sequel yet. Doing a campy horror/comedy with the concept is fairly easy but its clear that this was given the most minimal of budgets giving it just above the ranks of a film school thesis project. And where are the jokes? For this to be a comedy i did not chuckle ONCE. This is definitely not the kind of film you watch alone, this is a group venture with ample breaks and talking to break up the monotony. There are some cast members that have a chance of this being a spring board for future projects but even that might be a stretch.
