Breaking Legs

This movie really deserved some kind of theatrical release. It was so well written, directed and acted, that it is shame that it went direct to home viewing only. After the screenplay, to me casting is the most important part of a movie. If you have the wrong people in the parts it could really ruin the film. But here everyone was perfect for their parts. What I really liked was "real" teenagers playing teenagers. Not 20 or 30 somethings you find in so many movie and TV shows. I loved the soundtrack. My favorite two performances were William Leon's and Liv Southard's. They had really great chemistry together. I really liked Mark Marchillo (also the director and screenwriter) as the uncle. He really dances well too. I also loved Aaron Landon as the comic relief of the movie. A movie that gets very serious at times. It was a really good touch in writing that part and again great casting.

This movie was painful to watch. I couldn't even get through it. Definitely do NOT recommend. The actors were really awful

I wanted to like this movie...I really did, but it's not good at all. The story and the acting.... the two things that make a movie were not there. The story was boring and predictable and dumb...too many plots and people and no explanations and it rambled on until I couldn't take anymore and turned it without caring what happened. And the acting...well, it wasn't good. Don't waste your time on this one.

This movie was filled to the brim with clichés, A girl with no parents who has a dream, Check. A mean, bratty girl who is jealous, check. A boy who is in love with bratty girl, who then falls in love with protagonist, check. Quirky, idiotic sidekick, Check. It's just like every other teen movie out there, it started well but just completely fell apart, with no real resolution or plot, don't waste your time.

Breaking Legs is such a fun, heartwarming film that you can't pass on! From the dance scenes to the high school drama, this film captures the truth of growing up as a young teen dreaming of a what seems unreachable in a world full of bitter disappointments. The story is told in an upbeat, quirky way that you'll find yourself wanting to get up and dance your heart out no matter what. Don't even get me started on how hilarious Chris Kattan was in this alongside the talented Mark Marchillo who wrote, directed and starred in this beautiful dance of human and visual art! I couldn't stop laughing, gasping and wanting to Dance!
