What A Blast From The Past

Londonmod from London, 26th July, 2005

What a great film. It was back then and still is now. My kids watched this and were blown away.
This has had to be added to their Christmas lists.
If you have never seen this film before then you MUST go and watch this.
If you have seen it then treat yourself to another watch. It will be well worth it.

The 'dirty' Dirty Dancing

numbaseven from London, 13th June, 2005

Absolutely shocking but nevertheless probably an accurate portrayal of the decade that style forgot. Average viewing only for the dedecated hip/hop/dance fraaternity. Think Dirty Dancing covered in the slime of the streets ... comes standard with musical montage.

Makes me feel like moving to LA all over again

A Customer from Leeds, 20th January, 2005

Another classic! I can remember watching this over and over trying to perfect my windmill! They make it look so easy and those Nike windjammers look amazing, should have kept mine, damnit! Anyways, this has some great moves and some ok tunes and if you can put up with the cheesey plot you have a great film!

This is the orginal 'step up', 'Fame' style movie, an oldie but a goodie, easy watch and predictable but if you like flims with dance especailly break n hip hop this is the one-we all love an underdog coming thru!
