Into the Beat

Nothing new in this movie that we have not seen before.

Story is predictable and the dancing is mediocre, especially the ballet scenes make it hard to believe that this girl was supposed to pursue a career as a professional ballet dancer.

What is troubling is the same racist cliché that we have seen before: Black hip hop dancer that is coming from a troubling family background and lives in an orphanage. Come on, why do we always need to put black people in these same roles?

To sum it up: A German version of "Save the last dance" that you can easily skip.

Great cinematography and good actress, but it felt fake and predictable on some points. A phew scenes were better than the others, I enjoyed the last dance, the metro part and the camera movements. I'm sad because I felt the potential of this film, but lacked a better and more original scenario and a real connection between characters. Congratulation to the team for all the work.

First why wouldn't the music match the dancing ? It makes no sense. Second. Are there no talented dancers in Germany ? I've seen better dancers get laughed of the stage on So You Think You Can Dance and America's Got Talent. What a waste of my time.

Alexandra Pfeifer was the only good thing about this movie. Don't consider it as a film about dance or strictly about romance, rather something in between, but failing to deliver both messages. Was expecting great original soundtracks and choreographies. I got bored so many times that I can't even count, and some scenes was making no sense at all, or was so quickly (un)developed..

Predictable story line and some clique moments here and there... but the chemistry between the two leads was way more believable than most other dance movies I've seen. Overall some really great acting and very skilled dancers.

I think part of the reason I liked the movie so much was because I watched it in Spanish and the translation was fantastic! Way better than the English in my opinion. (I'm bilingual so I pick the best one)
