Breakdance - The Movie aka Breakin' [1984] [VHS]

Cast your mind back to the eighties... Were you one of those kids who ruined your new windcheater trying to spin on your back?? Or nearly broke your neck attempting a head-spin?? If so, this film's for you!!It's a feel-good movie (suitable for all ages) about two street dancers - Ozone & Turbo - teaming up with a professional dancer - Kelly aka Special K - who enter a formal dance competition, hoping to win the strait-laced judges over with their fresh new street style.Okay, so there's no Oscar worthy performances to speak of and if you look closely, you can tell that budget and time scales were tight. But... WHO CARES!Breakdancing has made a major comeback in recent years and I'll be the first to admit that the routines the youngsters are churning out these days are a lot more polished and dynamic than they used to be. But this film is a classic example of how it was back in the day, when kids used to walk around with their boom boxes and their mats, ready to get down at any given opportunity.Even after all these years, I still enjoy all of the dance scenes, my favourite being the 1st Radiotron clash, closely followed by the rehearsal in the dance studio, before the big competition. Turbo definitely steals the show throughout the movie.If after watching Breakdance, you're not humming one of the tunes from its excellent soundtrack and/or you don't find yourself standing in front of the mirror to see if you can still pull off at least one of those old moves, I'd be very surprised.With a decent enough storyline and elements of humour, as well as a message of endurance and hope, you could do a lot worse than having this classic film as part of your DVD collection.

Given as present do don’t know how good it might be
