Well, I only jerked twice throughout the film, so it can't be that bad, right?
Dark humor aside, I actually did watch the movie to see what the fuss was about. I can 100% say it deserves the backlash. It would be one thing if you filmed young girls dancing in a wider shot, even if the dance is somewhat sexual, but filming up close to their butts and crotches? It definitely is not promoting the anti-sexualization of kids, like they try to say it is. And having the final 5 mins where the main girl wants to be innocent again at the end, seemingly out of nowhere, doesn't change what happened for the rest of the film.
