Movie Reviews of Breakin'
Movie Review: Breakdancin' Passion
Summary: 5 Stars
I remember going to Smiths, with my mom as a child, and renting this movie at least three times a week. I couldn't get enough of it. I would watch this movie with such enthusiasm, that I can't even remember what else I would do as a child, besides riding my bike and going to school. I would try my best to practice the moves in the movie, and work on my locking and popping skills. But then the Smiths store in our town closed, and I eventually forgot about Breakin', slowly it slipped from my mind.
But even now, as I remember the movie, most of the dance moves and hip-hop music is just as awesome and addicting as it was when i was a kid.
It is true, that the plot is lacking and corny...
but this movie is about passion for dancing! Plus the music is seriously the best part of the movie. (except for the lame music in the dance studio near beginning of the movie.)
The dancing try's to make up for the questionable acting and story line. The not so great story and acting is actually good for a laugh, making the movie worth while as an unintentional comedy. This movie serves it's purpose as entertaining and enjoyable to watch, that is, if you enjoy marveling at break dancer's grooving to rad music. I will always love this movie, even if some might not agree with me, it is indeed, worth a watch.
UPDATE: 7 June 2007, I just watched Breakin' and I still love it just as much as i did then. Some of the parts were a little cheezy, but it really didn't matter, I also have rekindled my love for Ozone. YAY!
UPDATE: 18 June 2007, I have now watched it with a group of friends and we laughed and made fun of the cheezy parts, but also enjoyed and wowed the dancing, and sometimes, funny dancing scenes. This movie is still one of my favorites, in the category of crazy 80's movies. YAY!
UPDATE: 15 September 2007,
I thought about erasing most of my first review of this movie. But I didn't. Because it's fun to watch the progression of this change in me. I still love the movie because it has sentimental value, but truthfully, this movie is only for a laugh. And really, there aren't that many good dance moves, which makes me sad and I wonder why I liked this movie as a kid so much. Maybe i was just in love with Ozone? quite possibly.
However, i still will give this silly movie five stars out of respect for it and Adolfo Quinones is the most awesomely dressed person in this movie. The style and 80's clothing of this movie is down right perfect for what I hope the 80's really looked like. I dont know if i'd suggest buying this movie, unless you have sentimental value with it, but you at least need to rent it or watch it somehow.
do it.
