Honey 3: Dare to Dance Blu-ray Review






**SYNOPSIS**



At a prestigious South African school, Melea and her boyfriend imagine a hip-hop version of Romeo and Juliet, but Melea’s dreams are dashed when she’s unable to pay tuition and is forced to leave. Determined to fulfill her destiny, she does the unthinkable –persuades the community to support her artistic and unique vision. When adrenaline-filled rehearsals cause dance crew rivals and egos to get in the way, everything falls apart. Once again, Melea dares to dream and risks it all to put on a performance you’ll never forget. From the director of Honey and Honey 2, Honey 3 is full of dance, romantic love triangles and heart-pumping music you won’t want to miss.





**VIDEO QUALITY**



Honey 3: Dare to Dance arrives on Blu-ray with a 1080p transfer in the aspect ratio of 1.78:1 - Color saturation in primaries was striking. Fine details in the clothing and the South Africa street decay were sharp. Black levels were deep while shadow delineation was still excellent. 9.5/10


**AUDIO QUALITY**



Audio is provided by a DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 track. - The LFE Channel gets the biggest workout with deep and tight bass accompanying the dance music. Dialogue reproduction was crystal clear and voices are prioritized to the center channel. Surrounds add some interesting use of environmental effects and blending of the music tracks. No problems to speak of here. 9.5/10
