Bring It On: Worldwide #CheerSmack, the sixth installment in the popular franchise, will be released on Blu-ray and DVD August 29th, 2017 from Universal Pictures Home Entertainment.
* Complimentary DVD Movie was Received.
Bring It On: Worldwide #Cheersmack stars Vivica A. Fox as the Cheer Goddess, as well as Cristine Prosperi (“Degrassi: The Next Generation”), Jordan Rodrigues (“The Fosters”) and Sophie Vavasseur (Resident Evil: Apocalypse).
Movie Synopsis: Delivering more rivalry, fierceness and cheer puns like never before, the Bring it On franchise goes global for the very first time in the high energy sixth installment. Filled with all-new stunts and choreography, Bring It On: Worldwide #Cheersmack features 19 squads from around the globe, including teams from Australia, U.K., Germany and France, in addition to the Northern Elite Gymnastics and Cheer team from the United States. The film is the perfect hybrid of cheerleading and dance for a non-stop worldwide showdown.
Vivica A. Fox makes her Bring it On debut as Cheer Goddess, the Internet’s most popular “Cheer-lebrity.” When Destiny (Prosperi), captain of three-time national champions “The Rebels,” is challenged to a global cheer showdown by an edgy new team called “The Truth,” the Cheer Goddess organizes a virtual battle for squads from all around the world. It seems like the whole world wants to take down Destiny and her team, and they just might succeed, unless Density can rise to the challenge, set her ego aside and figure out who her real friends are.
You check out the trailer below.
Our Thoughts: When I was younger I did competitive cheerleading for 12 years. My team participated in national competitions in Nashville T.N. and Miami F.L. several times. I have to admit, our squad was extremely good and our entire team worked really hard to perfect our routines and stunts. Cheerleading is something that will always be in my “blood” and it was a good experience for me growing up.
Now that I’m a mother, my 8 year old daughter is following in my footsteps. She just completed our first year of cheer, gymnastics and dance. Her second year just started last week. Being a cheerleader is a lot of fun, but it’s also a lot of hard work. It teaches girl’s discipline and how to work together as a team to achieve one goal. Winning!
I sat down to watch the movie with my daughter and two of her teammates. The girls were really excited to see the film. I’ve seen all of the Bring It On movie installments, but this was the first movie that the girls have seen. The story line was really cool as it plays in modern time, with having the internet involved and squads from all around the world. The acting in this movie was really good and the girls were hooked to the TV screen from start to finish. After the movie was over, we re-started it and they were up off their seats trying out some of the dance moves and other things they saw during the movie. It motivated them in a good way.
My mom likes to rate movies according to a popcorn bucket movie rating scale, so I’ll do the same. I’m giving Bring It On: Worldwide #Cheersmack 7 1/2 popcorn buckets out of 10 on our blog’s rating scale. Definitely a good movie if you have pre-teens, teens and even young women in your home who are into competitive cheerleading, gymnastics and/or dance.

Looking for a dynamic new movie to watch? If so, you need to check out 3 Generations starring Naomi Watts, Elle Fanning and Susan Sarandon. This new flick is available for purchase on DVD, Video On-Demand and Download starting on June 13th, 2017.
Description: The inspirational and witty film about one teen’s courageous journey through gender reassignment, 3 Generations arrives on Blu-ray (plus Digital HD), DVD, and Digital HD June 13th, 2017 from Anchor Bay Entertainment. The film features an all-star ensemble cast, including Naomi Watts, Elle Fanning, Susan Sarandon, and Tate Donovan. From the producers of Little Miss Sunshine.
Synopsis: 3 Generations tells the stirring and touching story of three generations of a family living under one roof in New York as they deal with the life-changing transformation by one that ultimately affects them all. Ray (Elle Fanning) is a teenager who has struggled with the body assigned to him at birth and is determined to start transitioning. His single mother, Maggie (Naomi Watts), must track down Ray’s biological father (Tate Donovan) to get his legal consent to allow Ray’s transition. Dolly (Susan Sarandon), Ray’s lesbian grandmother is having a hard time accepting that she now has a grandson. They must each confront their own identities and learn to embrace change and their strength as a family in order to ultimately find acceptance and understanding.
My Thoughts: When I first read the synopsis for this movie I wasn’t sure if I would like it. Let’s face it, it deals with a very touchy subject matter that most people aren’t comfortable talking about. However, times are changing and we all need to be a little more open-minded. I’m not saying we have to change our religious and/or moral beliefs, but we all need to be open-minded and treat one another respectfully.
Last weekend my husband and I sat down to watch it together. As the synopsis states, it deals with several different touchy subjects going on within one family. The grandmother “Dolly” is a lesbian, the adult daughter “Maggie” has a whole host of relationship & personal issues and then there is Dolly’s child “Ray” who’s struggling with gender identity and makes the decision to go through the gender transformation as a teenager. Yes, this movie deals with it all.
Overall, I thought the movie was pretty good. The acting was great, the characters meshed-well together and the story line kept you entertained. My only complaint about the movie is that I thought there was way too much “drama” going on with each of the characters. Each character had their own issues and at times…I felt it was just a little too much for me to handle. With that said, we are all different and your opinion will probably differ from mine.
On my movie rating entertainment scale, I would give this one 7 popcorn buckets out of 10 popcorn buckets. Is it the type of movie I would watch over & over? No. Is it the type of movie that I would watch 2-3 times a year? Probably. Again, we all enjoy different things, so don’t let my opinion turn you off.
