I rented this for my kids so they could see what "Breakin" was. They enjoyed the moves, the acting was just awful. But, it was enjoyable to see how breakin' could get anyone's attention then and still does. Plus you get to laugh at the fashion back then. Not the dancers so much, but the geeks on the beach.

Outstanding dancing, but like most reviewers I agree that the acting was weak. I loved the movie back-in-the-day, and I'm amazed at how I (and my children) enjoy the movie equally today. A good, clean, fun film, what more can you say.

I watched the movie when I was very young. Through the eyes of a child it was awesome. I still watch the movie with those same eyes. This is my all time favorite movie. The dancing still is cool to me.
