Honey is a movie about a poor inner city young woman (played by Jessica Alba) who dreams of being a hip-hop dancer and choreographer. She gets her big break when she catches the eye of music video director Michael Ellis (David Moscow). But the music business turns out to have a harder edge when Honey fends off Michael's untoward advances and then suffers the consequences.

This was an ok movie. Not much of a plot and perhaps a bit too music video-y making me wonder if Billiw Woodruff is a music video director. Jessica Alba wearing a halter top and dancing around is appealing and all but the hip-hop dancing wasn't. Overall not a movie I particularly enjoyed.
