It comes with no surprise that 'Breakin' has a low-rating score; the cast is predominantly made up of dancers with little experience in acting, however, the main goal of this film is not to please the audience with outstanding performances, at least not acting, but dancing, yes!
This film pays homage to the Hip-Hop culture of the 80s and the streetdance styles that thrived within many communities, preventing kids on the street from getting involved with drugs, guns and violence, which ultimately saved a lot of lives. 'Breakin' also touches on the stereotypes of streetancers in conjunction with the theatrical arts (such as 'ballet'), which was more respected and seen as 'classy'.
'Breakin' does not have a complex plot that is too complicated for the audience to understand, as the main focus is the dancing itself. If you approach this film expecting a magnificent plot and great acting, then this film is not for you. It is simply a bit of 'fun', with a cast of highly talented streedancers that pioneered/contributed massively to their styles of dance, so if you are someone that connects or knows a lot about streetdance/Hip-Hop culture, or lived throughout this lifestyle in the 80s, then this film will really hit home and resonate with you on a nostalgic level.
