4.0 out of 5 stars I know I'm not the only one., March 7, 2001
By Mecca Egypt (Gardena, CA United States) - See all my reviews
For some reason, the unabashed cheesiness and dated quality makes me enjoy this film. It's so innocent compared to today's standards. Whenever this movie would come on HBO, my eyes would be completely agog. The film is like a warped form of escapism for me. Watching 5 kids from the streets of Sandusky rise to the top in the Big Apple is just a sight for sore eyes. I love the music in the film, it's repetitive, addictive, and Fame-esque. My favorite song is at the end during the credits called "Long As We Believe." You people be sure to look out for that song because it will be a hit again. Concluding, I wouldn't recommend buying this film, but if you are ever up during the wee hours of the morning and happen to be watching cable TV, give this movie a chance!

5.0 out of 5 stars great movie....with catchy tunes, June 23, 2003
By O'Livia DelPiano (Jersey City) - See all my reviews
After watching this movie, i have to admit that it has become one of my sleepover classics. I make all of my friends watch it. They go home singing and dancing just as i did the first time i saw it. late night television is great for all those B movies youd never thought youd enjoy. this movie ranks as high as moulin rouge and center stage in my book. gotta love the 80's. and the dance off between the street dancers and the sandusky kids is great.

5.0 out of 5 stars My #1 Favorite Guilty Pleasure Movie, July 8, 1999
By A Customer
This film is so campy and cheesy that it grabs me whenever it comes on (the Encore channel runs it often). The hairstyles and clothes are fabulously dated, the acting is bad, and the dancing is hilariously Debbie Allen-esque. Eight kids from Sandusky, Ohio move to NYC hoping to gain fame in the dance world within about 2 weeks of getting there! There is a rival "bad" dance gang and some riotously funny dance sequences between the "good" and "bad" kids that are supposed to be the equivalent of a rumble between gangs (sort of like "West Side Story" meets The Solid Gold Dancers with an Adam Ant fashion sense).

If you love unabashed cheese, this is for you!
