a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

This film was a true pleasure to watch! The story has heart and the dancing is spot on. Sure, the acting isn't exactly the best in the world, but what do you expect from an independent dance flick? B-Girl certainly beats the ridiculous plot lines and abysmal acting of Step-Up 2&3 (and probably the upcoming 4...we shall see). I've heard better dialogue, but it didn't bore me to death and it wasn't so cheesy as to make me want to throttle the screenwriter.B-Girl is definitely worth 83 minutes of your time. Don't let reviewers who are sadly misinformed about the history of breaking and clearly out of touch with current trends in dance(coughclaywebb79cough)put you off of this film. B-Girl is a heartfelt story set in a beautiful backdrop(there's some gorgeous graffiti). The choreography is excellent and the dancers straight up kill it! I give B-Girl a 7 of 10.

First lady Jules is my favorite bgirl of all. shes just sick, so the fact that she is the main actor/dancer in the movie just makes it more "amazzinger".But also as a bboy and dancer, i'm pretty sure many of other bboys and bgirls have went through this phase of "your not good enough". for myself, growing up as a navy brat i moved every 2 or 3 years... and for the past five years... I've had to move out of my school to another school each year.. so its new scene EVERY school year for 5 years. Angel moving to los angeles , you would imagine ever dancer would love that, but when your in a place your unfamiliar with, your so frighten and don't know what to expect. and then when people press against you, you feel like the whole world is against you. also in a way, since my dad was ALWAYS on deployment. i haven't seen him for more then a consecutive month in past 4 years. so its kinda just me and my mom. or when i had to live with my grandparents...i felt outside my element. but with my mom, lke angel's mom, my mom really needs AAA or AA.. whichever.seeing how excellent emily dell was able to execute the movie with some sick dancers is amazing. lol i put it on my ipod and provably watched it a lot. its really good inspiration to start dancing and show how when things get rough, just get rougher and don't back down.although true some scenes in the move are sort of like um okay. the its all spun together makes it superb.

This Movie Was Definitely A Waste Of Money and Time -- The Cover Looked Amazing The Quick Info On The Back Of The DVD Seemed Interesting and It Said That The Dancers Were From Step-Up Step-Up 2 Step-Up 3D and Fame So That Led Me To Think That This Movie Was Gonna Be Just Like Those Movies or At Least Close To Them - Boy Was I Wrong -- The Acting Was Horrible, The Cameraman Seemed To Move A Lot, the Dancing Was Typical, The Lines Were At Times Stupid and Cheesy and There Was A Lot of Things That Would Happen That Would Make Absolutely No Sense At All There's Parts Where The Main Character (Angel) ((Who By The Way Was A Horrible Pick For The Main Lead)) Would Just Go Up To Her Room and Throw Her Clothes Around and Scream and Cry -- There's A Part Where She Completely Flips Out After She See's A Guys Tattoo and Runs Home and Packs Up To Leave and Then Her Mom Comes In and Says That She Won't Let Her Leave Back To Brooklyn ((Movie Starts Out In Brooklyn but After Her and Her Best Friend Get Stabbed By Her Ex-Boyfriend, In Which The Friend Dies, She Moves To LA To Live With Her Mom ((who probably acts the stupidest in the movie)) and Grandma)) And The Mom Grabs Her Bag And Pulls It Which Pulls Her Arm and The Mom's All Saying Sorry So She Just Runs To The Park and Starts Dancing Around...Dumb. I Mean That Seems Pretty Interesting But If You See It Yourself..The Way They Acted It All Out..Crappy and There Were Pauses Of Awkwardness In There Too That Just Made The Movie So Much More Boringer and There's Also A Flash Back Scene Where She's Remembering Everything Before The Stabbing And At First It Seemed Like Just A Flashback But Soon I Began To Wonder If It Was Another Scene...Took Kinda Long -- In My Mind The People Making This Movie Seemed To Know What They Were Doing But Didn't Seem to Show It Because Everything Just Seemed So Low in Production -- Definitely Not A Hollywood Film This By Far Is Not A Movie That Any Kid or Teen Would Enjoy -- I Think This Movie Was Pointed More Towards The Older Adults To Lure Them Into The Break Dancing World -- Nothing Like Step-Up -- By Far The Only Good Thing In This Movie Was The Music But Other Than That...I Would Not Recommend This Movie At All

okay so this movie was kind of a below average film for my liking. I've been an avid fan of "dance movies" for some time now and enjoyed watching everything from dirty dancing to step up to name a few. but although this being a low budget film (atleast thats what it seemed to me !!!), the outcome could have been a lot better.to start off with, the acting was below par, and the direction could have been a lot better, don't get me wrong - the choreography was intense although were a bit rough around the edges.I mean, the lead hero/heroin should be the best among the other dancers, where as she was obviously not. the end dance sequence in the competition was way off - the dancers ripped the stage apart - except for the lead. - thats just sad - and not to mention the result thingy - it was mentioned that there was a prize money and stuff - but the film suddenly ends as people run off and start dancing !!! now thats not good...well all in all, it did kill time for me, although once it ended I was glad that it did !!! - I say - IF YOU'RE A B BOY/GIRL THEN YOU MIGHT ENJOY THIS FILM, ELSE WATCH AT YOUR OWN RISK !!!
