**Before clicking on the titles to see the REVIEWS, please be sure that these are absolutely my PERSONAL OWN OPINIONS. As a huge fan of International Style (but a teacher for both American & International Styles), I do have my PERSONAL BIAS, some kinds of Rhythms (like Lindy Hop) and popular dances (like Street) are not my types. I can dance them I can teach them, but they are not necessarily my top favourites. There are some great street dance movie I like e.g. 1984's Breakin, but the latest Step Up All In is absolutely a thumb down.

tattered and torn is
not so Latin to me, feels like gypsy
|
||
2012
|
personally a thumb
down, dancing as an art form shouldn't become a public disturbance, for
whatever reasons.
|
||
2011
|
great dancer's last
day, documentary,
|
||
2010
|
done with interest,
nice to see passion and learn that there is only one floor and a crowd of
audience.

make magic

hip hop girl
choreographer saves the street kids
|
||

It's hell to see
people ignore justice but just want fame. But dance has been so nice, esp All
that Jazz & Roxie
|
||
2001
|
her intention of
dancing somehow echoed mine
|
||
2001

you deserve.
|
||
2001
|
dancer's non-dancing
life
|
||
2000

ballet learners work
for their life goal
|

a boy overcame the
embarrassment of loving ballet and succeed at last
|
||
1999

1998
|
done together with
Shall we dance, love it.

better than the US
remake
|
||
1992
|
this is why I love
Paso Doble
|
||
1990
|
interested since the
princess was so sexy, but that's all
|

1990
|
expected to have
something like the GTO version of take the lead
|
||
1990
|
Tango tangled with the
twisted personalities in the dark & corrupted Argentine part of history
|
||
1988
|
good music, good
dancing but bad acting
|
||
1987

because of another
dancer's frequent mentioning. Not my style.
|
||
1984
|
recorded at the time
when street just emerged, inspirational moves even it's a 30 years old film
|
||
1966
|
reviewed, a sweet
Scottish fable
|
||
1941
|
Can't say I like Lindy
Hop, but yes it's popular
|
||
1935
|
as a fan of today's
international style, not much charm to me. But can see why it banged back in
1900s
|
||
1934
|
really a nice dance
film at the black and white time, resembles some old-fashioned dance style
