Made at lightning speed (it was reportedly shot and released within one month) to capitalize on 1984's ubiquitous commercialization of break dancing, BREAKIN' teams classical-dance student Dickey with LA performers Quinones and Chambers, who essentially play themselves (two street artists whose break-dancing skill has made them local legends). They join forces, dance their way through the sun-splashed streets and clubs of LA, and take advantage of the opportunity to audition for a New York show to convince their stuffy, older detractors that they have what it takes to make it on Broadway. The actors handle the minimal dialogue and plot well enough, but the real star, and the film's only real point of interest, is the fast, furious, often remarkable dancing. Rapper "Ice-T" is among the featured performers. leave a comment
