1984 was the most 80's year ever, apparently.

This man has clearly seen
something worth celebrating.

 

Hey guys, guess what? I'm going to review a movie that defines a large part of the 80s. You want to take a guess? If you said Breakin', you're obviously a time traveler who already read this and your guess doesn't count. First of all, let me just say that I like this movie a lot. Almost everything you've heard about or remember from the 80's is here in this movie. Awesome clothes, leg warmers, incredible breakdancing, leg warmers, and a dancing Jean-Claude Van Damme. This movie is about a jazz dancer, Kelly, who meets two breakdancers, Turbo and Ozone, who show her the awesome world of breakdancing. She gets breakdancing training from them and witnesses their feud with the crew Electro Rock, led by Poppin' Taco. Kelly becomes friends with Turbo and Ozone and everything seems pretty cool. But trouble comes up when Kelly's snobby dance instructor, Franco, has problems with Kelly's hybrid dancing style. However, popping and locking ensues and Franco is served. This isn't the kind of Academy Award winning film that has a deep message and stuff. The basic message is, "BREAKDANCING IS COOL!" This movie is known for it's dance scenes, like the battles between crews, Turbo's incredible broom dance, and more. This is a really fun movie and if you are like me in the fact that you appreciate breakdancing for being awesome, then you will love this movie. And if you want to delve deeper into hip hop culture, Beat Street is the movie for you. I got to give props  to my father of course, for recommending it. Thanks, Pop.

My score: 7.5/10
However, if you rate movies based on how "80's" they are, then it's like, 1984/1984.
