The fresh-faced cast of newcomers and edgy, restless camerawork make up for the script's inherent predictability.

Reviews for Groove
It's a fun night, even if this party lacks Go's cleverness and stars.
The words don't mean much, but it has got a good beat and you can dance to it.
While Groove -- the story is pretty limp, Groove -- the slice of life examining today's counterculture is far better realized.
A little bland, but it puts you in the mood to forgive it: relaxed and mellow and accepting.
This is a fun movie with nothing much up director Harrison's sleeve but showing the audience and his cast a good time.
anything but a cautionary expose. In fact, it's almost an urban fairy tale.
A nice little change of pace, one that features an appealing cast of fresh faces and an infectious sense of fun.
Harrison understands his material, creating a slice of life that pulses like one of John Digweed's mixes.
There's such a sunny air about this subterranean party story that it's difficult not to like.
Achieves its high by tapping into the real thing -- the wonder of making movies.
