before the movie start there be a note to the effect that none of the camera work have be speed ed up . once the kid start dance and you know why this be mention . the film start with historical footage of the watts riot in 1965 and and then the rodney kind riot of 1992. thing be ablaze . people be get beat up . and then enters tommy the clown who be a hip hop clown and i guess celebrity in watt or south central . he be a sweet man who have take in kid who parent be in jail and abandon them and etc . the dancing in this film be amazing and to be sure . you will wonder how people can move like that and so fast and so crazy and particularly when you see a 4 year old girl or a 300 pound woman do it . but what be more astonishing be the kid in the movie . these kid have a right to be the most angry and aggressive and horrible kid ever . and yet they be generally thoughtful and generous and and very wise . i realize some of this be in the editing and but a 20 year old kid who take care of his sibling while mom be in jail until she get her act together be quite a human be and and most of these kid come across like that . they dance a an expression of their anger and a a way to create family and and an alternative to the gang family that pop up in the void of traditional nuclear family in place like south central . yes and at the end there be a scene with a bunch of them dance in slow mo and it look like they have be oil up and their hair be fabulous and you know and so what . david lachappelle have a background in photography and and if anybody deserve to pretend to be supermodel and it these kid . great great movie .
