    Great Movie Lots of Fun

    This was a great movie. I just had lots of fun watching it. It was great to see Tytus transformed into a great dancer. And Li Wen accent was very authentic. Of course the cast of characters was Oscar winning. You'll have a great time watching this movie. Its a must see.

    Tytus and Li Wen have been teaching dance at Allegro for many years. So we also got an opportunity to see some of their great dance moves. I can't recommend the movie enough. A real winner. Go see this movie. You must see this movie. You will see this movie. In addition to the above there were a cast of bad guys who made the movie a lot of fun. Not only men but women as well.

    Must See Movie

    I have watched the movie twice. The first time, I thought it was entertaining and hilarious but I also felt that certain characters were a bit over the top. What compelled me to see it the second time was the underlying story of the main character, Bergie Barnsworth, a man with low self-esteem who, through dance, found the motivation to make his dreams come true. My understanding is that this was Tytus Bergstrom's first big screen production. He does an excellent job portraying the main character. Bergie Barnsworth comes across as a genuine struggler who has the misfortune to be surrounded with negative people who constantly belittle him. He feels as if he is nobody, and then one day, realizes he has a chance to dance with the woman of his dreams if he has the courage to try something new and the commitment to stick with it. The transformation is slow and at times painful, but he manages to overcome many obstacles to achieve his goals. The movie is funny but also has a serious side. Both Tytus Bergstrom and LiWen Ang are outstanding dancers and there are many other fabulous dancers in the movie; in particular, the final dancing scene is incredible. I enjoyed it thoroughly and I look forward to seeing Tytus Bergstrom's next production. A must see movie for dancers and for those who want a good laugh.

    A Fun Romp in Competitive Dance

    This is a fun romp through the world of competitive dance...with some talented dancers and a very entertaining story line (shy nerd thrown into the spotlight, with a beautiful woman and the chance to make his mark in a big way). There is some good tech stuff too, and the characters are earnest and fun to watch! One can recognize easily these as prototypes of those seen on actual dance reality shows. It is also interesting to see the characters evolve, and for me, I enjoyed the locale as it was filmed mostly in and around San Francisco, and we all know that San Francisco is watchable, to say the least. There are some unexpected scenes. You might find yourself laughing out loud, as I did! If you are looking for something to just enjoy, this could be for you.

    Watch Twice

    From the first view this movie is satisfying as a good parody and funny enough to keep you and the audience laughing out loud.

    But this movie is more than a simple comedy. Buried in an ugly duckling story we have a highly motivated underdog struggling to win over the dance judges and vast TV viewing audience. There is family honor to redeem but more important is the dream of wining a beautiful and fascinating woman.

    The second view is a nice time to enjoy the audience reaction and to let the many over-the-top characters and innuendos sink in.

    Visually pleasing, nicely constructed and acted. Pretty much a must watch for anyone that has been watching 'Dancing With the Stars' or other competitive dance events.

    Highly entertaining!!!

    Having no expectations going into this movie, as I knew this was the first big screen movie by this director/actor, I surprisingly found myself laughing throughout the entire movie!! A lot of these actors were not holding back anything and gave it 110% in order to achieve their goals of making the characters shine. As an audience, I really appreciated it! I also enjoyed the great dancing skills displayed by these immature actors, who are professional ballroom dancers. Way to make fun of those reality dancing shows :) There is room to improve this movie, of course, but the self taught computer graphics by the director was quite impressive! I highly recommend this movie! And I look forward to seeing their future movies!
