Groove has often been compared with Human Traffic, but both are actually quite different. While Human Traffic was about a group of people who go to clubs and take drugs, Groove is about an actual rave. Director Greg Harrison is... Full review

's not a bad movie at all....The best scene in this "making of" comes courtesy of an "internet startup" millionaire, who skate-boarded over to Groove 's office with his cheque book in tow..... ... Full Review
Jam! Movies
Huge, fist jabbing dance scenes, endless techno tunes, a string of spinners, twentysomething angst in the chill room and some decent laughs -- Groove has all this and endless energy as well.
Groove takes place in one day, starting with sight scoping, e-mails to alert the partyers, set-up, music, security, guide maps, dj round-up (including Digweed, Forest Green, Polywog and WishFM, all playing themselves), endless hopping up and down and finally wandering home at dawn.

The music and wizard DJs in ``Groove'' are better than the dopey story.

The Cincinnati Enquirer
The movie never delves deeply into these personal complexities.
First-time writer-director Greg Harrison is clearly enamored of the rave scene, and shows it in a dutifully romanticized light: Everybody loves everybody.
