ShangLuda Admirable film.

Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

Sarita Rafferty There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

Comeuppance Reviews Kelly, Turbo and Ozone are back in Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo, the only break dancing-based sequel in movie history. This time around, a community center named Miracles is at stake. A nefarious land developer, Douglas (MacLean), wants to bulldoze the beloved property to make room for a shopping center. The kids can save it, but they must raise the proper amount of money. And there's only one way to do that: dance, dance, dance! Do you know of another way? All the same colorful costumes and funky tunes return this time around as well, as does Ice-T, wearing one of the best outfits of his career in the first scene he appears in. We also find out that Kelly comes from a wealthy family, and, when she gets the opportunity to star on the stage in Paris, or help out Miracles, what will she decide? For this Breakin' film, the directorial reins were handed over to Sam Firstenberg, the Cannon mainstay and director of many action films, including Revenge of the Ninja (1983) and American Ninja (1985). Under his watch, this film becomes more of a traditional musical, with clearly-defined "numbers" wherein setpieces are set aside for that purpose, then the action of the film goes back to normal. Luckily, this leads to insane and very funny scenarios, not the least of which are the killer opening scene and the hospital scene. Coming off Turbo's "broom dance" in the first film, we here have him doing a very impressive, pre-Lionel Richie dance on the ceiling. Is it now to be inferred by the viewer that Turbo has magic powers? He's certainly more of a human cartoon than ever before, enhanced by his Woody Woodpecker-like mischief, which he is definitely aware of, and it even gets him into trouble during the infamous "I stole your lunch" sequence.Ozone is still dealing with his anger issues, although the viewers' hearts will be warmed with the increased screen time of cute little kid Hot Dog. This movie is more fantastical than the first Breakin' (1984) film, and the decision to step away from realism shows that the filmmakers wanted to change things up and not do the same thing twice. It has a more clearly defined plot than the original installment, and any fan of upbeat, fun, silly entertainment should love it.For fans of musicals and 80's nostalgia alike, this is a sequel that is definitely worthy and makes a great back-to-back double feature with the original Breakin'.for more insanity, please visit: comeuppancereviews.com

rain_3101 Breakin 2 its a wonderful movie with wonderful purpose to it, were kids can be kids and music and dance were once fun and people get long people don't get long. and people try to take things over and shut them down cause they got money and they think the kids don't which is crap and bull. they shouldn't be so mean its not right to brag your rich when there are people who aren't or have no money period just not right. this movie shows u that and it rocks 10 of 10 it is just right for kids and adults to watch together so enjoy it. ozone and turbo are great to kelly all the gang it is very good movie for its time. hopefully it will be around for my son to watch it when he gets older for he can enjoy it to like i did when i was younger and now as I'm older i hope he can enjoy it.

Ruffyboo I think that Breakin' 2 is one of the best movies ever. It seems that most of the movies of this generation have in a sense reverted back to the plot of the older movies. The characters have great individuality and are as natural as the common man, not acting with skills that make the character irrelevant to the audience. We all can relate to the situation that has taken place as the lives of children are disrupted by commercial businessmen. I love the dancing and the choreography of this movie. I am reminded of dancing like this as a kid just wanting and waiting to have fun or an opportunity to learn new dances. This movie is a well-rounded film that shares with the audience a sense of great dancing and a plot that is heartwarming. It has a great innocence, bringing back memories of yesterday when it wasn't strange to be happy and stand up for what you believe. This movie has everything that a great picture should have such as romance, comedy, drama, and morality.

alirock76 Yeah the film is predictable, poorly acted, & the clothes.... well! yet this is exactly was the 80's was all about & why it was the best decade ever. I mean tell me, who didn't enjoy police academy, porkies, those silly troma films & all those ridiculous teenage slasher movies. & then we have the transformers, he-man, visionaries & the best cartoon ever made the THUNDERCATS.... HO! My point is basically the 80's was about having fun & was represented by film, TV & especially music... gap band, shalamar, earth, wind & fire... kool & the gang, & of course the greatest of them all MICHAEL JACKSON (yo' all know!) So in essence remember this film, & it should make you smile & remember just how great life is & how great it was growing up & living through all those silly movies & knight rider, street hawk, tj hooker, automan, airwolf etc & you all remember leg warmers & fluorescent socks & especially wearing shorts on top of your trousers (pants lol) & Mr T long live the A-Team & viva the 80's
