Go for It!

I really enjoy dance movies but sadly there aren't many that are entertaining and actually well made. I've only truly enjoyed Save the last Dance and Honey. Both had great music, good chemistry amongst the actors, dope moves and perfect stage presence. Carmen came off as very stiff and uncomfortable not only when dancing but just speaking. Without Gina in the scenes there was nothing making you want to continue watching. Sure it has a nice story but if the actors can't do two things required of them then the film is a flop.

If you like dancing movies don't go in wanting or expecting one. If you see this, see it knowing it's more of a lifetime coming of age flic.

I saw this film a couple of times. Yes, it is an often-told story of rags to riches and yes, another dance film. But what makes this film so unique is the story behind it. The filmmaker, Ms. Marron, raised all the capital herself to finance its production. She put together the actors, the crew, the musicians, the post people and worked tirelessly on her project. Then upon completion, she screened at festival after festival to rave reviews. The creme de la creme comes in the form of a major distributor, Lions Gate, who also believed in Ms. Marron's film. For a first time filmmaker to have this kind of success is rare, on par with Matt Damon and Ben Affleck and their Miramax breakthrough. So props to Ms. Marron for her hard won success! See this film and help support independent filmmaking!

First i wanted to try my SONY TV on 3D.I ordered by mistake on ebay this movie as it was the cheapest 3D Blu-ray DVD .I put it on on 3D ,there was not any effect of 3D at all ...After i continue watching on normal blue- ray..half way i cut it off cause on meaning of the movie totally rubbish movie never see such a worst and no passion movie to watch..No dance Technic or happy to watch,just low life people on it.Lets break it down a bit the meaning of this movie.. -no dance ,not good ca-rater to play .first of all it started OK by giving a school teenager life wanted to dance but after went all wrong by putting the teacher into student live fixing - never can been teacher fixing your live problem into movie ,it doesn't make any sense how the director putting on this movie ..Sec by killing her room mate from other guy ,what that has to do into dance movie ...killing people about krackheads problem cause the didn't let them to have sex... Im totally Million % give a big 1 out of 10 (1/10)

This movie took me by surprise. I'm not a music/dance film fan, but found myself drawn in by the story and characters. All I really knew from the trailer was that the film had great music and an interesting look. I was not really aware of the culture of dance teams/crews and found myself drawn in by the fascinating storyline of the characters inhabiting this world. The location shooting and visual style of the film becomes almost another character. That GO FOR IT was a first effort by writer/director Carmen Marron is even more impressive. Ms Marron is an inspiration for all of us and her film underscores the importance of having a dream and "going for it!"

Before coming to Korea, someone recommended to see this movie and therefore I did. The plot is good because we can relate to this film on everyday life of a common people especially those who struggle to make a living. One thing good is, there is a moral lesson to the story, the choices we make to our life and that was conveyed in the story. Oftentimes, choices that we make in life make or breaks us. Friends that influence us, love us, envy us shape the way we think if we let them. Good to stand firm on what you believe in life especially if you are grounded properly. Bottom line is "you make your life." Hope people that will see it will look at it the way I see the movie. Warmest regards to the film maker. Also, good job and good luck on this movie.
