Critical reception

Larry Flick from Billboard felt the song "shows her finally fitting comfortably into the R&B sound that she has been cultivating over the past few years. Her booming voice now possesses the darker shades needed to hang tough in circles inhabited by such artists as Faith Evans and Mary J. Blige." Ha also noted that producer Dave "Jam" Hall contributes to Peniston's vocal confidence by placing her in "a sleek, funk-fortified musical context that complements her phrasing style quite well." [3] Peter Miro from Cash Box stated that "Movin' On" "kicks up a danceable groove that touches base with Peniston's solid club foundation, yet her emotive phrasing connects with a deeper soul reservoir this format merely hints at. Targeting new consumers, she's a firm fixture in the R&B camp henceforth. Guest artists G. Man and Suga T. flavor the best of the lot." [4]
